Our coverage of this worthless POS company attracted a threat of legal action. And thus I shed no tears for today’s humiliation for Ashington Innovation (ASHI). Who could have thought that this SPAC listed by Jason Smart, a man with curious links to penny share criminals as exposed HERE, would end in tears. Smart had tried to reverse in two worthless businesses, exposed HERE, run by struck off Dentist Ajan Rejinald for £170 million but now that deal is off. Natch Smart dissembles as a cash crisis looms.

I have never been a fan of N4 Pharma (N4P), another sub scale POS on the AIM Sewer. Its Nomad is SP Angel which is always a red flag and a sign to get out. The broking team are the scholars and gentlemen at Turner Pope and I wonder if they are working on a placing right now. They should be. The maths is not hard.

Shares in Aquis listed Valereum (VLRM) remain suspended on the Aquis lobster pot at just 3.85p. Founder Richard Poulden has scuttled away and the former rampers in chief David Lenigas and brown envelope man Zak Mir who told us the shares would hit either 100p or 200p have gone strangely silent. The company is technically insolvent. Today another body blow…

On 13 September the cash guzzling, drowning in debt, red flag laden POS that is Ben’s Creek (BEN) said that its audited results would be published on 27 September. On 27 September, at 4.36 PM Ben’s said that the numbers would be out on 29 September as it just had to finalise a few audit matters.

At what point will the FCA show some shame for admitting this worthless POS with a non IFRS compliant prospectus to the Standard List with a £60 million joke valuation? The shares are now 292p valuing a loss making company with (falling) sales of £1million last year and no balance sheet at £173 million. And now there is another red flag at RegTech Open (RTOP)

Oh dear, oh dear, it gets worse and worse for Jason Smart’s Standard listed POS Ashington Innovations (ASHI).

The wind-down of the POS that is Deepverge (DVRG) continues with its 1 remaining employee clearly working hard.

Actually, it was worse than that.

Peter Brailey and myself have been long term bears of Pantheon Resources (PANR), with Peter making a short thesis at 121p the centre of his ShareStock presentation in 2022. Who will he expose this year? The shares are now 12.5p after a presentation yesterday which revealed the dishonesty at the heart of this worthless POS. Even at this level the market cap is £120million and it is s stonking short.

Earlier I suggested that today’s news means that Deepverge (DVRG) is a slam dunk zero and by the time the last rites are read, it is clear that those owed money will not get it all back. And that brings me to fellow AIM POS Microsaic (MSYS) , run by Gerry “the pustule” Brandon, the man who made Deepverge the company it is today. Nigel Burton who is now CEO of Deepverge also sits on the Microsaic board and the two company’s also share a broker: Turner Pope.

During the early months of this year Zak Mir was the hero of numerous bulletin boards but notably those for Supply@ME capital (SYME) and remote Monitored Systems (RMS) for his almost non stop buy calls and ludicrous price targets. By contrast in calling out Supply as a fraud and Remote as an overvalued POS, I was the villain of the tale.

I will have some bad news for them from the FCA later.

After his role in anabling the fraud at Sefton Resources (SER), including in smearing the UK’s top investigative journalist, Dr Michael Green should NOT be working in financial services. You know my views. But he is. and his job these days seems to be penning bonkers research notes on small mining stocks setting insane share price targets which are multiples of the current share price. You may remember his classic piece on Bluebird Merchant (BMV) where the target – and I say this as an enthusiastic sharenholder – was just insane. Then there was a classic on the worthless James Parsons POS Ascent. His latest note is on Xtract (XTR) where he predicts profits of 500% for those buying the shares. If you enjoy a piece of badly wfritten fiction and don’t have a Jeffrey Archer to hand, the note is below.

Everything about Iconic labs (ICON) is toxic as we have exposed so many times HERE. Not least is the way it happily deceives investors.

Then I look at Nostra Terra Oil & Gas (NTOG), Bluebird Merchant Ventures (BMV), where I am a very excited and supportive shareholder but think the chairman must be fired after today’s news, Bidstack (BIDS), Plutus Powergen (PPG) and the associated POS companies and Westminster Group (WSG) where repellent slug and ex Tory MP Tony Baldry of 3DM infamy shows again why he is the unacceptable face of capitalism.

I have been deeply troubled by the most recent lack of profits warning from AIM listed worthless POS Servision (SEV).

But I fear it may be far worse than that.

Servision (SEV) the AIM listed POS has today slipped out a horrible calendar 2016 profits warning but the fact that it has waited five and a half months to do so is surely market abuse.

It shows what a POS Highlands is.

Jeepers, if turd polishing was an olympic sport Neil Ritson of LGO Energy (LGO) would be battling for a place, after so much practice he has acqusired a certain skill. But a turd is - however polished - still a turd and that brings us to the statement today from POS LGO.

SP Angel analyst Zac Phillips has now really got the bit between his teeth. Normally he is Mr Nice Guy but he scents blood at POS Nighthawk (HAWK) and has today given it another savaging. This is one of the most brutal assessments of an AIM listed company and of management incompetence I have seen penned by a City analyst in 25 years. Good work Zac, keep it up. Mr Nice Guy turned Mr Hyde says:

I start off with Avanti Communications (AVN) the spoof share purchase by uber bombastic CEO David "taffy" Williams and Lucian celebrating as the shares slide. Then it is onto a bad day for the Bick brothers. Baby Bick spins for Gable (GAH), Thirsty Bick spins for UK Oil & Gas (UKOG) and I comment on both. I touch on POS Magnolia (MAGP) where it is almost certainly placing ahoy then it is onto LXB Retail (LXB), Prospex Oil (PXOG), Hostelworld (HSW) and finally a detailed comment on Nyota (NYO).

It appears that almost insolvent TSX listed Mkango Resources might finally be about to get the dual listing it told us, via RNS, would be in December and then January. I guess there is an appetite for utter shit but look at the price Mkango is paying...

Listed at 5p on 23 June 2015, shares in uber dog CIC Gold (CICG) now trade at 1.25p -1.9p. Hmmmm a 3.75p loss to sell ( 75%) in ten months is pretty crap except when you remember that the man behind this POS is the boy scout mugger Stuart Bromley. By his standards in that CIC has not yet losts its listing, this has been a roaring success.

Richard Chase the CEO of Nyota (NYO) has failed at his job. He is grotesquely overpaid.

They are greedy pigs and Chase is a disgraceful POS who is beneath contempt. I hope he is unemployed soon and forced to pimp either his own arse or his wife at Kings Cross to make ends meet. I explain why all shareholders should email him at [email protected] TODAY urging him to resign at once. Fuck off Chase, you greedy useless City tosser, you will not be missed.

Oh dear. To have one POS turfed off the AIM Casino might be considered unfortuaate but to have two booted off and forced to flee to the ISDX lobster pot looks like carelessness. And so after the tobacco smuggling business of Afriag (AFRI) departed, next up is Doriemus (DOR). Oh dear.

There has been a deafening silence from Afriag (AFRI) as its shares have moved from the AIM Casino to the ISDX lobster pot.

Aquatic Foods (AFG) has been on the AIM Casino for exactly one year but its shares have slumped from 70p to 15p bid.

A year end trading statement is meant to allow investors to make a rational decision on whether to buy hold or sell the shares. A statement such as that served up by Iofina (IOF) today fails to do that. If a company fails to announce critical metrics it is - 99.99% of the time - because those metrics are dire. And that is the truth behind today's turd polishing from this AIM listed POS.

Its Nomad Roland “fatty” Cornish is too busy thinking of his next five course lunch to push the company on this and have the shares suspended pending clarification. When this goes tits up, his failure on this point will be raised with AIM Regulation.

We have already flagged that AIM-Cesspit POS Golden Saint Resources (GSR) was out of cash HERE. Today we find that despite pre-placing ramps (see HERE and HERE) it appears that it is out of friends too. This morning, it appears that the company could not even get a keep-the-lights-on placing away, and has had to turn to a death spiral. Except that it could not even go to any of the usual players there either, turning instead to crowd-funding. And to cap it all, this funding round has not yet been completed – today’s RNS simply announces of its launch. This is a slam-dunk sell.

He lives among the heathen celts of Wales and is a self confessed money tree worshipper, an older man with white hair - he is Getafix, the druid from Asterix the Gaul. Getafix heads off into the woods with his sickle to hack away mistletoe to make potions. Malcolm heads off into the woods to hack away at the money tree and then brews up a potion.
He stands over his cauldron and as Delphic type vapours emerge he intones "I know, buy Advanced Oncotherapy, add more Tertiary Minerals." Sometimes it works and he enjoys a good night at the Punters Return. Other times it does not work and Malcolm realises he took cuttings from the wrong tree. Getafix mutters to himself "but the Money Tree realy does exist" and trudges back into the woods with his sickle to continue his quest. I digress.

Either there are rules in which case this stock needs suspending and some folks getting a slap on the wrists or there are no rules in which case the hoods are running the asylum and AIM is officially not an honest place to do business. I also look at Mosman Oil & Gas, Daniel Stewart ( apologies timescale a day out on that one) and a few other POS stocks.

The last minute intervention of free speech deniers and Nomad to POS Coms and Tungsten, Charles Stanley, deprived us of the great Kevin Ashton but the bear pit at UK Investor Show still went with a bang thanks to Lucian Miers, Matt Early, Evil Knievil and myself, Tom Winnifrith. Enjoy the video.

At the last minute free speech denying broker Charles Stanley, (Nomad to POS companies such as Tungsten and Coms) forced the world's top tech analyst Kevin Ashton not to speak at UK Investor.

Thank you to the uber-foxy PR bird for Symphony, brokers Tim & John, foxy bex and the PR spinner to David Lenigas for last night. This bear now has a very sore head and is feeling fragile. Notwithstanding that I go into battle today starting with the Horse Hill omnishambles notably in regard to Solo Oil, moving onto two Chinese POS stocks warning today, to that specialist in China Frauds Daniel Stewart and its own profits warning. I then look at why Kirkland Lake is to leave the Casino and then also at another China POS stock now on ISDX having been booted off the Casino. A second bearcast on Quindell & Slater Gordon is to follow.

The Quindell of 2005 was a company called 3DM. Its shareholders the ThreeDimmers saw the AIM casino stock hyped up to 150p as this former Kazakh loo paper manufacturer told lie after lie. It sent me lawyer’s letter after lawyer’s letter as it tried to bully me into silence. Its cheerleaders, tipster Mike Walters and a City spiv called Johnny Townsend, encouraged all shareholders to report me to the FSA (the FCA of old). But in the end it was 3DM that was censured not once but twice by the FSA (2006 and 2008) for its serial lies. Today that company is called Environmental Recycling (ENRT) and it is still on AIM. Just.

Ok I am up for it. In response to popular demand I will be coming up to London on April 29th in order to attend the London Stock Exchange (LSE) AGM to give the useless tossers in charge a hard time about fraud on AIM, both Chinese and otherwise. Lucian Miers is up for it, anyone else fancy a bunfight followed by pizza.
Our thesis is that the LSE does not give a FF about private investors losing cash on fraud after fraud on AIM, all it cares about is getting more fees for the casino it owns and pretends to regulate by allowing any POS to float.

In this podcast I look again at Horse Hill and my mind wanders back to 2003 and Avington. I look at Coms and ask if Dave Breith is an insider dealer as well as a shite ex-CEO? Then it is on to Tethys Petroleum en passant Software Radio and then the highlight of the day, POS AIM Casino dog with fleas Clear Leisure appointing Big Ray Zimmerman and his bunch of muppets at ZAI Corporate Finance as its new Nomad.

Today’s trading statement from blinkx must be making even Roger Lawson from ShareSoc splutter into his cornflakes as it is truly dire. No wonder that the shares, 90p a year ago as Lawson said the bears did not know what they were talking about, are just 28.5p and falling. And worse is to come for this POS as a 100% vindicated Ben Edelman will be having another go at www.UKInvestorshow.com on April 18 in Westminster.

The competition for which shitty little AIM Casino POS oil stock is guilty of the greatest over promotion of its prospects in 2014 was a stiff one. But among the clear front runners was Mosman Oil & Gas which hyped its dull prospects in Oz and NZ to all and sundry. The shares flew to 44p. They are now 4.75p-5p just days after a “keep the lights on” placing to raise half a Bernie at 5p. This is my third sell tip for Easter.

The shares are now 1.8p valuing this POS ( Daniel Stewart) at c£13 million. It has unrestriced ( ie non reg cap net cash) of c£600,000 and is, at best, making a tiny profit. This is a stonking short.

I have had a few battles with Foxy Bex and her colleagues at Redleaf Polhill over the past two years because of its willingness to represent absolute liars and criminals such as the Cupid gang and Rob Terry of Quindell. Redleaf (and indeed Foxy herself) has now taken on another client which they know full well is run by a liar and a charlatan and which is an investment disaster waiting to happen.
The corporate advisor to this POS Company has taken on board what I have had to say and returned calls in a polite and professional manner. But Redleaf has avoided doing so for a period of eight days. I am constantly told that the team representing this company is “in meetings” but my calls to them and to Redleaf boss Emma Kane are just not returned.

In terms of a week ten winner, the full list of rantings from the insane is here but the winners are:

It is now three weeks since shares in Naibu (NBU) were suspended from the AIM casino pending clarification of its financial position, notwithstanding the fact that it claimed to be profitable, cash generative and to have net cash of £32 million – a multiple of its market cap. In light of this I have again written to Big Ray Zimmerman of ZAI Corporate Finance, Nomad to this fraud because the implications of the fraud are severe for not only Naibu but also ZAI, Daniel Stewart (DAN) and the other members of the Fujian four – China Chaintek (CTEK), Camkids (CAMK) and Jiasen (JSI). Plus for good measure JQW (JQW).

I am goaded into writing a letter to those responsible for the only financial websites that matter (ADVFN, iii, LSE and Motley Fool) asking them to follow our lead at ShareProphets and to publicly refuse to take any advertising from Pacific Tycoon because quite simply it is a scheme that will ensure readers lose money.
Pacific Tycoon promises bumper returns from renting out shipping containers in Asia. The returns it promises are amazing. And yet after rewarding investors it still spends vast sums on renting lists from financial websites to promote its scheme. The fact that it pays so much more than normal is a Red Flag in itself. And why does it market so aggressively if the returns are both that good and real?
It must be tempting for some media owners to take the cash. We have refused point blank to take its advertising because as I have written HERE, HERE and HERE we think it is a big con. And we do not want any part of it.

AIM casino posterboy Mopowered (MPOW) has today announced a rescue placing at 5p. It was listed at 100p on December 18 last year. It was trading whilst insolvent until today and has been for weeks. The shares are now 8.125p so investors have lost 92% of their cash in just over nine months. But it is not all bad news: the lawyers, brokers, nomad, accountants and PRs assisting this POS will – after commission today – have now made more than £1 million from the firm. It is coke and hookers all round for the Crony Capitalists of the AIM Casino, and hard cheese for the shareholders.
I am sure investors will be lining up to thank CEO Dominic Keen for his sterling efforts on their behalf. Mr Keen

MoPowered Group (MPOW) raised a gross £3.64 million at 100p when listing on the AIM Casino on December 18 2013. The shares now stand at 20.5p valuing this POS at just over £3.2 million. And while it says that it is going ahead with a £3.5 million fund raise you’d have to be mad to subscribe as this has red flags all over it. Death is all this deserves.
Of course £3.64 million did not go to the company. The admission document reveals that the cost of the IPO and fundraising was a staggering £700,000. That will have paid for an awful lot of hookers and coke at offices of brokers, Nomads, PRs, accounts and lawyers across the City last Christmas. It is a staggering sum. So where are the shareholder’s coke and hookers?
Where are they? Oh don’t be stupid. We shareholders get no coke and hookers. This is AIM. This is crony capitalism. Our money is simply transferred to the Crony Capitalists of the City. The coke and hookers are all for the Square Mile, not for the peasants. We are just there to pay for them.

I do hope that someone round at Daniel Stewart, Nomad and Broker to AIM listed China fraud Naibu (NBU) has learned to read Chinese since the crony capitalists FAILED to do adequate due diligence on this POS before it listed. Because I have a little press cutting for you chaps from 2008. If you are not too busy spending the £600,000 you have made in fees from Naibu in the past 18 months you need to read it and then resign at once as Nomad and broker and have the shares suspended.

I noted in my earlier article HERE how Zedex Capital is involved in listing a stack of shit companies or indeed outright frauds on AIM. That is why anyone holding shares in Naibu, Camkids, China Chaintek, Asian Citrus and Asia Ceramics which are all, pro tem, listed on the Casino should sell now. If you doubt me here is another warning: Asia Distribution, what happened next.
The pattern is that the Chinese company floats, raises cash from gullible Gwaelos in London, Chinese investors sell in the aftermarket and then, to cover up the fraud, the POS on AIM agrees to a takeover at a price which sees all UK Investors lose money. But you ask what happens next once AIM investors are not looking any more? Asia Distribution agreed to a 52p a share bid to end its AIM charade. Here is the 2011 Regulatory filing from the acquiring company. Weep.

I have been flagging up what a joke the accounts of AIM listed Chinese POS Geong International (GNG) are for more than two years but amid the Naibu (NBU) excitement I overlooked the fact that Geong served up its own dogs dinner of a statement on Friday. Its accruals policy makes that of Quenron look conservative.
Turnover in the year to March 31 2014 was £9.5 million (£9.6 million) and pre-tax profit was unchanged at £100,000. But just look at trade receivables - £20.073 million of which £14.265 million was just accrued, i.e. not even invoices for. And this is a Software, largely SAAS Company! You what? We are being expected that sales equating to more than 220% of annual revenue are unpaid which is hardly surprising as 70% of that is just accrued – i.e. booked as revenue but not yet invoiced.

Last time I warned about the GXG listed POS that is US Oil & Gas (USOP) was on July 28 HERE when the market cap was £20 million. Based on the last trade at 34p it is now £13.98 million. It is overvalued by £13.98 million sell while you can. My target price remains 0p
GXG is a matched bargain platform so the next person to sell will get only 31p, then the one after that is into the twenties. If you wait you will be getting virtually nothing for these worthless shares. Why are they worth nothing?
A. CEO Brian McDonnell is a liar and a fraud and should go to prison. I invite him to sue me for libel as

Outsourcery (OUT), the POS AIM stock run by serial business failure Piers Linney of Dragon’s Den infamy has announced a refinancing package to stave off bankruptcy. Well at least to postpone it. But the level of dissembling defies belief. Truly Piers if you told me that 2+2 = 4 I’d ask for independent verification.

As you know, I believe that AIM listed Naibu (NBU) is a total POS. I do not believe its numbers or its CEO or his mum who still owes the company £2 million she “borrowed” a few years back. I think that the shares at 43.5p are in fact worth 0.0000001p. A 4p per share dividend is due to be paid on Friday. So here is a question for Mr Lin.

Following the comical trading statement from AIM listed POS China joke company Naibu (NBU) earlier this week – see HERE - Broker and Nomad to this Norfolk, Daniel Stewart, has published a buy note but refuses to answer my utterly critical question. The shares have slumped to 43.5p putting them on a PE of 0.95 and a yield of 13.8% if you believe the forecasts. I do not and am thus slashing my target price from 1p to 0.0000001p and will reduce it further if Daniel Stewart cannot answer this question:

A Trading statement from China based AIM Cesspit POS Naibu (NBU) today is sheer comedy genius. The shares are off again at 51.5p and I am now minded to revisit my 1p target price as I am being generous.
This is the company where the CEO lent his mum a seven figure sum - cash that belonged to the company – to buy a property. The deal fell through but she is not bothering to repay. When all its peers suffered falling sales and margin compression, Naibu reported numbers that bucked the trend. Its reported numbers in terms of margin are off the scale. It had had six auditors in six years.
At its AGM, CEO Lin failed to appear citing problems with his visa. Bollocks. I was there

Having promised an update on refinancing the POS AIM listed company Outsourcery in July, Dragon’s Den Prima Donna Piers Linney served up a pretty wet statement at the last minute this morning. The RNS is both wet and disingenuous. And here’s why.The statement reads:
As stated on 27 June, in an update issued ahead of the Group's Capital Markets Day, the Board stated its view that the Group has sufficient cash resources for its immediate needs. The Board re-iterates that view today.
The Board has been prudently reviewing a range of options that would improve the Group's cash resources and is pleased to confirm that discussions regarding a combination of debt and equity funding options as outlined in its trading update on 27 June have progressed quickly and positively in recent weeks. Final discussions and documentation regarding these options are now underway and the Board will provide a final update in short order.
Ok. Let’s deal with the cash.

Brian Toye runs a listed company Toye & Co (TOYE) and has now made a 35p a share offer to buy out his fellow stockholders. The offer is disgracefully low – a 30% discount to the share price and a 70% discount to the last NAV. The manner of the offer also begs a stack of questions as to whether rules have been followed. The NEDs said No. But it will go through unless regulators intervene. This is disgraceful crony capitalism and POS Brian Toye has serious questions to answer.
One shareholder has now contacted Mr Toye, his advisors and the Takeover Panel asking for an investigation. Let’s see what happen. His letter is below. And it will horrify you.

On 27th June, AIM listed Outsourcery (OUT) announced that it was holding a “Capital Markets Day.” Hmmm, this is an £12 million capitalised AIM listed POS with pretensions is it not? The company started with a raft of positive guff but then – if you had not fallen asleep and got to the bottom of the release – found that it was admitting that it was a year behind schedule and needs to raise cash this year to keep going. Now even prostitute researcher Edison is sticking the boot in – what it says and what management says look very different to me. Why would anyone refinance this train wreck?
The company describes itself thus: Outsourcery operates a highly disruptive business model as cloud-services increasingly remove the need for organisations of all sizes to consume co-location, managed services or small, purpose built private clouds.
Hmmmm all the right buzzwords in there (managed services, cloud, disruptive – a bonus for that one). Surely a sell signal.

By 4.30 PM tomorrow all companies listed on the AIM Cesspit with a December 31st year end must have published their results or their shares will be suspended. And here are a good few likely contenders as you can see below.
Generally any company that leaves it to the wire to publish its results is a piss poor company. Thus I note that of those publishing at the last minute last year, two (RAM Active Media and XXI Century) are no longer on AIM. And not for good reasons.
Two Cesspit posterboys have already suspended their shares because they have already ‘fessed up to an inability to publish calendar 2013 numbers on time: Bodisen Biotech (BODI) and Conexion Media (CXM). I covered the farce that is the Bodisen POS here.
So who will join Bodisen and Conexion in suspension in time for the AIM Cesspit awards dinner. The list below is not comprehensive but there are a good few runners and riders:

If you are a good Chinese company you list in Hong Kong or Shanghai because it is easier to raise money, here is liquidity in your shares and ratings are higher. If you are a piece of Junk (geddit?) you list on the AIM Cesspit. Time and again it is the same old story. Today’s catastrophe is Bodisen Biotech (BODI) – which Chinese POS will be next?

On 27th May AIM Cesspit listed Astar Minerals (ASTA) lied to investors in an RNS. This overvalued POS Company is run by a bucket shop stockbroker and anyone buying the shares needs their head examined. The fact that it took The Sheriff of AIM only ten minutes to unearth this lie shows what dumb and unprincipled mothers these folks are.
Let’s start with the lie. Astar stated:

If you have a spare one hour and 49 minutes and want to listen to a comedian spouting total bullshit we are here to help with the assistance of wee Brian “It’s The Way I tell ‘em” McDonnell the man in charge of the POS joke GXG listed company US Oil & Gas (USOP). Before you listen remember:
US Oil & Gas and Brian are proven serial liars – see HERE
US Oil & Gas was kicked off ISDX for regulatory failures (a heroic achievement) – see HERE
Brian wants no independent boardroom scrutiny as I revealed earlier today HERE
US Oil & Gas was floated by serial promoter of utter shite Liam McGrattan – see HERE
US Oil & Gas is a worthless piece of shite traded on a joke market and fair terminal value ( and it will be terminal) is 0p – see HERE

I noted that AIM Cesspit posterboy Phorm (PHRM) is now “in sights” and as such, as is now traditional, a special commemorative T-shirt has been designed and is available for immediate purchase. I recommend the red version.
If you have lost money on this POS enterprise or just wish to remember its Orwellian approach to business this is the ideal fashion accessory. Perhaps you are a fund manager wondering what to wear as Phorm pitches up trying to raise yet more money to keep going.
After all Phorm has already burned its way through $328 million of investor’s cash and is almost certainly less than six weeks away from running out of cash yet again. So it is becoming poorer by the day.

I approve of AIM Cesspit listed companies doing rights issues rather than discounted placings to City insiders. But not when the company in question is, to use the technical term, fucked. That brings me to dual listed Scotgold (SGZ) which, I have noted before on this website, is a total POS.
Last week with the shares at c1p it announced a 3 for rights issue at 0.5 cents (0.28p) per share. The fact that this company is doing a rights issue not a placing is nothing to do with its hopeless directors believing in shareholder democracy but everything to do with the fact that City punters just will not play ball. That is because ScotGold is fucked.
The company owes £1.5 million to a bank (RMB) that was mad enough to lend to a pre-production company. It has said that it may roll that loan (due for repayment before Christmas) over as long as

I have been writing bearish articles on AIM Cesspit listed management lifestyle (oops, I meant to say oil services) group Vialogy (VIY) for more than a year since the stock traded at 2.125p. The Bulletin Board Morons gave me consummate grief. I see the shares have plunged today on the release of dire financials to just 0.68p. My target remains 0.01p for this worthless POS. It has the smell of death.

AIM listed director lifestyle (sorry oil services) company Vialogy (LSE:VIY) has – as predicted many times by me ended its Autumn ramp campaign of spurious announcements with a placing. The whole thing stinks and it merely delays the ultimate demise of this POS. The company has raised £1.4 million at 1.25p with punters each getting one warrant at 1.25p for every three shares subscribed for. Now here is why it stinks and why you should sell first thing on Monday morning.
