AIM listed joke company of the year 2001-2013, Sefton Resources (LSE:SER) has this morning released an independent valuation of its Kansas reserves which can only be described as laughable. It is back to its old pal Dr Onat for this corker. It defies belief that anyone should fall for this baloney but here goes. Sefton […]

The primary trend on Iofina plc (LSE:IOF) is bullish. On September 25, 2013, I recommended that the stock on this market should be bought (http://uk.advfn.com/newspaper/azeez-mustapha/10713/iofina-plc-buy). For those who did so, congratulations! Then, the price was at 70.00, but at the time of writing this new forecast, the stock was trading at 187.00. What a significant gain! […]

In recent times, the situation on Tethys Petroleum (LSE:TPL) has been bullish. But right now, the stock is in an equilibrium mode. Then what is the next price direction? Would the bear’s threats materialize? Would the bull’s threats materialize? What is it that issues threats in the forest? Let it carry out its threats quickly, […]

On 15th February I suggested selling shares in AIM listed oil producer and explorer Gulfsands Petroleum (LSE:GPX) at111.5p. The shares are now 96p. One reason NOT to sell is that Gulfsands is debt free and has net cash but I wonder how much it actually has. A buzz of IR activity of late makes me […]

My own defence against the spurious libel claims made against me by joke oil company Sefton Resources (LSE:SER) went in weeks ago. But today I have the good news that Brokerman Dan has filed his defence. It forms only part of his argument but already runs to 1200 pages of documents which poses an interesting […]

On 12 June 2012 ADVFN reported that Thalassa share price had jumped 61% to 47.50 following its announcement of a joint venture with P-Cable to market Thalassa’s patented high-resolution, sub-oceanic, seismic data acquisition technology and the commencement of a contract with State Sevmorgeo Company in Russia.  Executive Chairman Duncan Soukup was looking forward to increased […]

I sense that shareholders in AIM listed management lifestyle, oops meant to say oilfield services company, Vialogy (LSE:VIY) are not exactly my biggest fans. I warned them to bale at 2.125p in the autumn on the basis that the company was ramping its shares with spurious announcements ahead of a rescue fund raise. I warned […]

I am not sure that anyone can call the share price of Bulletin Board Darling Xcite Energy (LSE:XEL) correctly. As such I make no comment on today’s results other than to republish a note from top broker Fox Davies and it is I who underline two phrases which grabs my eye. Clearly high risk/high reward. […]

Zoltav Resources (LSE:ZOL) the AIM listed shell last week announced a Reverse takeover in a deal to buy some Russian oil assets. The shares were suspended at 4.6p but the deal is being done at 3.5p and so here is how the maths of the shareholder structure stacks up after the deal: 1. Vendors of […]
