LSE Market News

The Bard of the Boleyn, infamous short seller Lucian Miers has quit his writing gig at ShareCrazy and will today make his debut as a colonist on the Nifty Fifty website run by myself and Steve Moore. Lucian is perhaps the sharpest brain in UK short selling. He may not have the profile of some […]

Shares in AIM listed tech stock Enables IT (LSE:EIT) formerly Nexus have zoomed ahead over the past few days and now trade at 32p valuing the business at £4.75 million. Notwithstanding that bounce this is still one of my least successful tips from my years at t1ps. At least I take some consolation from my […]

Lamprell (LSE:LAM) will be glad to get March 2013 behind it.  The company has taken it on the chin with a major fine from the FSA and a year end report that makes the Titanic’s voyage look like a raging success.  Nonetheless, the appointment of a new CFO,the arrival of its new CEO, and a […]

Shares in AIM and Canada listed Aureus Mining (LSE:AUE) trade higher today at 40p post the company’s 2012 results release and an update on financing for the company’s New Liberty gold project in Liberia. However, the shares are still well below the 57.25p at which I called them a post t1ps sell in November. I […]

I had a day off yesterday from Sefton Resources (LSE:SER) the joke AIM listed oil production company that is suing me for libel. But this morning I am sent, by a pal on the West Coast, a little snippet which I thought might interest you.  It concerns Thomas (Tom) George Milne who was appointed a […]

European stock markets turned green today after the Cypriot Parliament rejected the bailout proposal that would have taxed deposits in the country late evening yesterday. This is the first time a member of the Eurozone on the verge of a collapse defied the troika as opposed to the unpopular stance made by previously bailed out […]

I have always had a soft spot for AIM listed Turkish explorer Ariana Resources (LSE:AAU). Its management team do not take the piss on salaries and battle on showing grim determination to deliver and perhaps things are starting to go the way of Kerim Sener and his team. The newsflow of late has been positive. […]

AIM-listed Kryso Resources (LSE:KYS) is a tip of the year from myself at 32p. The shares currently trade slightly above this level at 32.75p despite continued unfavourable sector sentiment and an update last month that delays meant that its development project “is not now expected to be completed by March 2014 as previously scheduled”. So […]

The Cypriot Parliament has just voted against the bailout package presented over to the table by the Eurozone. Thirty six votes turned down the proposal with 19 members of the Parliament abstaining, defeating the rescue measure that would have levied a tax on deposits in the island-state of Cyprus. The abstained votes came from President Nicos […]

The prime focus of AIM and TSX Listed EMED Mining (LSE:EMED) is on restarting the huge Rio Tinto copper mine in Spain but it was set up in Cyprus (it initially targeted a small copper deposit there) and so lo and behold it still has some Cypriot bank exposure. And yesterday the company announced that as […]
