#JDW Spoons is usually a good barometer for consumer sentiment so its not a huge surprise to see a potential Profit Warning ⚠️ today: “There is clearly considerable pressure on consumer finances..This may result in profits that are slightly below current market expectations”

#CABP The latest instalment in the Cab Payments bid saga as the Board reject StoneX’s 95p potential bid The usual reason is cited, “significantly undervalues CAB Payments and its future prospects” 🍿🥤👀

#SPI Just as this Saturday’s PUSU approaches we get the obligatory update from Sky I suspect shareholders will bite their hand off at c230p…

If anyone wants me today I’ll be behind the sofa 🛋️🫣

#SYNT Synthomer still very much in the danger zone as it tries to refinance its debt pile “the Board does not currently intend to issue new equity and is focused on concluding the debt refinancing process alongside the divestment programme” Let’s see if this is what happens tho👀

#IGG Bit of a bombshell in today’s RNS with an all encompassing Strategic Review Everything including the kitchen sink is included “acquisitions to accelerate growth, IG's domicile and listing venues to unlock capital and enhance strategic flexibility, and potential combinations”

#SCT Is a game of 2 halves H1 numbers good & guidance raised However H2 has the kicker “tougher comparative due to the contribution from larger solutions projects in the second half..In addition, the net impact of ongoing memory shortages in this next period remains uncertain”

#RFX Ramsden shareholders will be happy to wake & read another ahead of expectations A rising gold price results in another upgrade “profit before tax..to be at least £24m* and, if the favourable gold price and trading conditions continue, potentially up to £28m”👍

#AMS Record sales, margin slightly lower though on integration costs Debt reduced £5.3m to £50.5m Dividend 2.01p Clarification welcome: “In respect to the current Middle East conflict, AMS has a limited footprint in the region and minimal exposure” Look to be doing ok I hold

@vodkaquickstep Uncorrelated returns to the stockmarket was the mantra when they floated Share prices since then say different 🤦🏻‍♀️

@reb40 #BUR, #LIT, #MANO all down over 5 years says something about the business model?

#LIT Litigation Capital are having an awful year 🫣 Today we’re told another case has gone against them, this time for A$1.4m (though they have insurance) Now just a £10m market cap 😳

@rhomboid1MF Well spotted 🖍️

@reb40 Freudian slip there Reb…Viceroy not Wirecard

#CBG results are in londonstockexchange.com/news-article/C… Given this comment it seems a fool’s errand to try & put a price on the equity here

#IGP Another Day Another Profit Warning due to geopolitical uncertainty & ensuing contract delays Revenue -7 to -8% below market expectations, EBITDA -15 to -18% (+ a bonus point 🏅 for telling us what they are) Suspect this won’t be the last…😳

#CRW actually went up today +4.35% to 1440p 👍 To put this into context the shares are down -44.5% over the last 6 months But every little helps as the saying goes 🙃 I hold

After an absence of just over 2 weeks (due to a US holiday) I’ve popped out from behind the 🛋️ and opened my portfolio🫣 As suspected most of the years gains have evaporated but pleasantly surprised to still have my head above water at +1.3% YTD Littles changed otherwise 🤷🏻‍♀️

#CRW Craneware has been a painful hold this year so it’s pleasing to see a share buyback starting $25m aggregate, every little helps

#CABP StoneX crash the CAB bid party with a potential 95p cash bid Trumps the Helios 85p bid Now things get more interesting 👀🍿🥤

Congratulations Ireland 🏉 Good game #IREvSCO

#BKG Housebuilders have been on quite a 🎢 over the last year so it’s good to see BKG reaffirming guidance, albeit with the caveat “we are aware of the risk of a further deterioration in macro conditions..potential for higher inflation..interest rates to remain higher for longer”
