I start with Trustpilot (TRST) and the ratings for Evri and Everi, do you smell a rat? Trustpilot is a stonking £1.2 billion short. Then Powerhouse (PHE) which you can also short to zero, Optibiotix (OPTI) and i am being objective and, I believe, balanced. Finally Roquefort (ROQ) and today’s red flag strewn news: is that a fake sheikh I spot?

Liverpool’s greatest numbers man since Ken Dodd is still celebrating the 2p bailout placing at Belluscura (BELL). Not only has Adan Reynolds yet again made Evil Banksta even richer but it shows, once again, how jolly clever he is With Belluscura, all Banksta needed to do was look at its financials and the type of debt it was forced to take on board, invoice discounting, and it was certain that a placing was coming. But there was an even bigger smoking gun which clever clogs spotted.

Oh dear, oh dear as disgraced ex tipster old mother Mike Walters would say as yet another of his disastrous tips went horribly wrong. In this podcast I discuss Belluscura (BELL), the sort of POS Walters would have tipped and also where we stand now with Nigel Wray, Adam Reynolds and David Pountney. For me, surely, even Magna Carta ( chairman of the chatroom gerbil, Winnifrith Derangement Syndrome society), must concede a double triumph?

Evil Banksta keeps sending me pictures of the enormous City Christmas lunches which he attends on a daily basis. At this rate his girth will soon be surpassing that of London’s worst Nomad, Roland “fatty” Cornish. But will his New Year fine dining be subsidized, yet again, by Adam Reynolds and Belluscura (BELL), the gift that never stops giving to short sellers?

The really big question is whether the shysters who have promised it £5 million in a loan are good for their cash and whether Nomad Liam Murray at Cairn has done any due diligence at all to verify that. But there is another, almost as big question. I offer you a timeline:

Anyone reading the piece about EnergyPathways (EPP) on this website yesterday will need no convincing that, at 9.85p, a £16 million market cap, it is an accident waiting to happen. But if you did need further reassurance …

Shares in EnergyPathways (EPP) are up by 400% in the last two months since an RNS, signed off and no doubt assiduously verified, by Liam “the Toke “ Murray at Cairn claiming a big loan was on the way. But who are the chaps behind that supposed loan and are they really good for the moolah. Has The Toke checked with his usual rigour i the due diligence department? The twitter thread below suggests he has not. Enjoy.

In today’s podcast I end with an event the Mrs is going to but which I shall pass on. Before that Scholium (SCHL) and the maths of leaving AIM if you are a good company, Probiotix (PBX) , Amaroq (AMRQ), I bet anyone a fiver it will not exist in 5 years, Energy Pathways (EPP) and Evil Banksta and Beacon Energy (BCE) and pointless cash shells.

Some folks are calling for a ban on shorting and have written to their MPs demanding that Petrofac (PFC) and others be saved from the wicked bears. As I explained in bearcast earlier with the case study of World Chess (CHSS), bears and shorters are actually much needed. Now Evil Banksta has responded as a proper Tory MP should.

Evil Banksta and I regard the debt mountain at Harland & Wolff (HARL) as the stake upon it will, in due course, be impaled. But our comments room savant PierotLunaire reckons that he knows better. Plus ca change.

Riverstone Credit Opportunities Income (RCOI) is a main market listed energy infrastructure and energy-transition credit investor. In its wisdom it has leant money to Harland & Wolff (HARL) which, as Evil Banksta explains HERE, is drowning in red flags and debt and is burning cash and cannot hope to refinance. Liverpool’s greatest numbers man since Ken Dodd reckons that Harland is a zero..

After his night out on the town funded by Adam Reynolds, Evil Banksta says he has had further thoughts on Belluscura (BELL) after his initial thoughts on Friday. He flagged this in the comments section but it merits a wider audience. The great one writes:

Nigel Wray attended my most recent wedding almost ten and a half years ago and he is my friend. Or I really hope that he still is. I do not wish that to change but the optics of the proposed takeover by Belluscura (BELL) of TMT Acquisitions (TMTA) now look terrible for him and he should insist that it be renegotiated. I flagged this up in Bearcast yesterday but I now dig deeper and bring in comment from Evil Banksta who is short of Belluscura.

Evil Banksta has, as have I, called the spoof Eurasia Mining (EUA) perfectly, naturally attracting stacks of criticism from the Bulletin Board savants. My target price, as I explained earlier HERE, is essentially 0p. But what does the great one say?

Oh dear, oh dear as disgraced share tipster Old Mother Mike Walters used to say as yet another one of his share tips headed for a crash landing in Tits up Alley. One of his biggest disasters was, of course, Minmet (MNT) the fraudulent gold miner based in Brazil. Horizonte Minerals (HZM) wants to be a lithium miner based in Brazil. My 2 year old daughter wants to own a real life pink unicorn. I want… well, you know all about Cheryl Cole.

Evil Banksta described at ShareStock how he takes Mrs Banksta on numerous luxury holidays funded by his winnings from shorting and then spends all day in front of a PC plotting his next swoop on some overvalued promote. And as such ,from a five star hotel somewhere hot and warm, I have received this message about Upland Resources (UPL) where the Banksta is short. I have no skin in the game but the great bear says:

I start with some fake news from the BBC, then it is Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI), Vast Resources (VAST), Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL) and an Evil Banksta fave, as a bear, Petra Diamonds (PDL). Then to the DOS attacks against this website. we must be doing something right!

Words almost fail me on how dire the course was. The only mercy was that I was not asked for my preferred pronouns. After that I look at Kefi Gold & Copper (KEFI), Horizonte Minerals (HZM), – where I never crowed, just warned and where Evil Banksta warns you again today, Boston International (BIH) – a scandal in the making I suggest – Metro Bank (MTRO), Regtech Open (RTOP) and on how the regulators show how much they love me for being so clever and such a good citizen, yet again ( Modesty being my middle name)

You can tell a lot about a company by the quality of its shareholders. As such before we deal with interims from Avacta (AVCT) I bring you two posts one after another from the ADVFN Bulletin board before my thoughts and those of Evil Banksta:

Evil Banksta is short of Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL). If I was ever to short a stock, and I don’t ever short, this would be high on my list. Today there is news that its death spiral provider Anavio has put in $3.5 million at 4p and that founder and boss, Arthur Millholland, the king of the value destroyers has stepped aside. Well sort of. So what do myself and Evil Banksta make of it all. First to Mr Banksta who says:

Evil Banksta is the sort of naïve chap who thinks that the FCA actually bothers implementing its own rules. If I had a bridge to sell I know who I’d be selling it to. He has again written to the FCA pointing out that the crack regulators are ignoring their own rules regarding Cineworld (CINE) in not suspending the shares at once for a failure to publish results. The credulous fellow writes in his own name:

In today’s bearcast I discuss Cloudbreak Discovery (CDL) and the relationship between crooked Andrew Male and Novum. Then Predator Oil & Gas (PRD), Cellular Goods (CBX) and some incriminating emails on twitter and finally IOG (IOG) and why Evil Banksta reckons the bond price tells you this is a wipeout.

On Saturday in bearcast I pointed out that the 5.56 PM Friday released results from Harland & Wolff (HARL) showed it to be insolvent and that things were only going to get worse. Anyone owning the shares is insane. Evil Banksta has been in touch to point out that, as ever, I was too kind.

There is no pleasing some folks is there? It seems that I missed something out from my list of 39 red flags for bears earlier. Worse still, much though it pains me to admit it, the pedant Evil Banksta might have a point.

You know what to do HERE. After discussing that subject linked to sock wearing techniques on long walks, I look at Wood Group (WG), Scotgold (SGZ), Eurasia Mining (EUA), Pembridge (PERE) and at the wise words from that clever fellow Evil Banksta which convince me after yesterday’s bearcast HERE that Tullow (TLW) is in fact a stonking short. Sorry Malcolm.

Today I look at Conroy Gold & Natural Resources (CGNR), Ariana (AAU) and Bluebird Merchant Ventures (BMV). Then at Pantheon Resources (PANR) and at ADVFN (AFN). Finally Evil Banksta has sent me this Bulletin Board post below on Technology Minerals (TMI). I have always been bearish on this stock as any company in any way linked to Chris Cleverly is always a dog with fleas. The post below looks to be kosher, thought it may not be, so, I suspect, does not alter the bear case and my target remains 0p.

“I cannot remember the last time that I saw such a duplicitous dishonest company, this has to be one of the easiest shorts out there at the moment!” says Evil Banksta of Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL). He is not alone, Lucian Miers has also called in from the grim North today, outraged as to how the FCA allows Canadian to publish the sort of misleading piffle it has today.

Today Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL) warned that it could easily go bust. It must have known that nine days ago, it is just only now that a prospectus is ready that it has had to ‘fess. Yet just nine days ago, knowing what was coming, disgraced CEO Arthur Millholland was ramping hard with a paid for interview on Proactive as you can see below. Shame on Proactive for failing to ask any tough questions of the old rogue. Call yourself journalists? You are just low life investment street hookers. As for Arthur, words fail me. He is a disgrace and should be forced to resign for ensuring folks lost money in this way.

I plead guilty. I recorded the bearcast HERE the other day when I was ill and so marginally delirious so I may have erred when it comes to Shield Therapeutics (STX). Evil Banksta is kind enough to assist me with my maths and he writes:

The first big call on Naked Wines (WINE) was 18 days ago HERE. Then there was a big follow up article on September 6 HERE. After 2 announcements at no-one is watching O’Clock last night the shares have crashed by 40% today. I discuss where next as I ponder Evil Banksta’s generous gifts on Saturday.

My problem, as ever, is being to much of a nice guy. So, generously, have long argued that Cineworld (CINE) shares might be worth 2p. And I stay with that view after yesterday’s Chapter 11 news. Evil Banksta,, being a bankster, is by definition not a nice guy and so has been even more bearish. He stays short and bearish and argues that, in a best case scenario, the shares are going to 1.5p. And unlike Damian from Northern Ireland who should be in jail, he explains his reasoning in a balanced fashion, thus:

I end with some logistics on Sharestock, booking for supper, tickets etc – we are now looking at almost 80 seats on the lawn. If you want to book yours please do so this weekend so I can sort out catering etc HERE. I start with economics lessons for the NHS and greedy and lazy Shipmans, then onto Cineworld (CINE), then thanks to Evil Banksta, what is an RCF and musicMagpie (MMAG). Finally today’s new issue Zamaz (ZAMZ) a £77 million IPO worth, £350,000. This is a true shocker. What is the FCA thinking about in permitting this to list on the Standard List?
1029 days ago
I estimate Cineworld (CINE) is worth c. 2p per share, as noted in yesterday’s bearcast. Perhaps my greatest flaw is overkindness. It is a real failing, with which I constantly struggle. Anyhow, Evil Banksta – being a banksta – has no such problems, and takes me to task for my generosity. He explains:

It was on July 1 that Evil Banksta sent me a job advert for the non exec chairmanship at Supply@ME Capital (SYME) asking me if I was thinking of applying. With no wish to add chairing a fraud to ,my CV I declined but I assumed that Supply had already announced that Dominic White was off. Schoolboy error!

Firstly, thank you to those who have donated to Woodlarks as it fights for survival. I include Robert the tractor driver. If you have not donated please do so HERE. But maybe hold back a few coppers for Evil Banksta and hois colleagues in banking, I describe their suffering and how long it will last. And what the ramifications are for companies such as Restaurant Group (RTN). then I look at Open Orphan which has GOT to issue an RNS after this piece HERE. Finally a few thoughts on Versarien (VRS).

At 3.4p Eurasia Mining (EUA) is a company shown to have lied to investors, with zero balance sheet support and which is burning cash. That is why, it needs to do a placing. Yet it is still capitalised at £92 million. So, what are the shares worth? I asked you for the craziest examples of Bulletin Board Moron madness last week and while there were some great spots as you can see HERE, Evil Banksta came up with the gem below:

Firstly, I am delighted to say that NoGold has been in touch about the £50 bet. Good man. Then I reflect on G3 Exploration (G3E) in light of Evil Banksta’s excellent piece yesterday. It is now more than six years since I ignored a certain amount of pressure and published the Bloody Dossier HERE. Under the Roger Lawson rules I would not have published. I am, again, vindicated. I comment on Anglo African (AAOG) and will have more to follow on toxic David Sefton and Iconic (ICON) later. Today’s news moves Lyin’ James Draper of Bidstack (BIDS) one place up my target list. I look at Online Blockchain (OBC) in detail and also at Fulham Shore (FUL) where the numbers look all wrong and which is, I fear, an accident waiting to happen. The £65 million valuation is crackers.

My comrade Evil Banksta has today exposed how AIM listed Bulletin Board darling Bidstack (BIDS) has misled investors and is also clearly sitting on a lack of profits and sales warning. For the former naughtiness the FCA should iopen an enquiry at once into possible market abuse, for the latter AIM regulation must force a statement. Being a fine upstanding citizen I have today written to the regulators. My missive follows:
Ref Bidstack PLC: Formal Request to Investigate Market Abuse & breach of AIM Rule 11

VSA is house broker to Obtala (OBT) so is not impartial. Neither am I as we own a small number of shares following a Dragon's Den pitch as the 2017 UK Investor Show. But the price target suggests real upside and VSA's research team is well regarded and since we happily published an uber-negative piece from Evil Banksta the other day, this offers some balance. VSA has tweaked its forecasts
