You might have thought that 2016 was going to be the year for cyber security group Falanx (LON:FLX). However, it may be the case that 2017 will be the year that the company comes up Trumps. I have interviewed cyber security company Falanx on several occasions, with the impression each time being that this is…
It may be the case that after the Horse Hill mania of the past few years, Alba Mineral Resources (LON:ALBA) is finally in sharp focus as a decent small cap prospect. What is interesting from a charting perspective is the last time there was a blip for the bulls, which was associated with the September…
While 2016 was full of black swans, surprises, shocks and an overload of celebrity deaths, the rise and rise of the online retailer was at least one predictable concept that was in line with expectations. Boohoo (LON:BOO) was among the vanguard. One of the big hurdles to being a successful investor is the issue of…
It should be the case that cyber security is a no-brainer area of growth given that hacking and cyber fraud are on the rise. However, it would appear that many are happy to leave their cyber guard down. I have to admit, the immediate aftermath of any profits warning gives me the instinct to run…
The latest oil market deal may or may not hold, and may just be a sentiment booster on a temporary basis.

Finnaust Mining (LON:FAM) has been a bit of a head scratcher this year. The reason being that the company has clearly been helped by the massive rebound in the sector to which it belongs, but with siren voices suggesting it may be overvalued. I have to say that there is some entertainment value associated with…
It has been a rather frustrating autumn for fans of 88 Energy (LON:88E), but in the aftermath of the latest price action recovery here, it would appear the waiting game is over. One of the more tricky aspects of investing in small caps is that, on occasion, expectations and share prices can run away with…
It may just be the spirit of Christmas, and it may not last. But it does feel like some of the former Bulletin Board Heroes such as Cloudtag and Amur Minerals are back in business to end 2016. LGO Energy (LON:LGO) was the company that got me started in small caps charting some three years…
I have to confess that I really enjoyed the time when Vince Cable was the Business Secretary as I could refer to him as the Anti-Business Tsar. The FCA remind us how they are the Business Prevention Authority, and seemingly have the remit of undermining the City of London. One of my immediate thoughts in…
Given that I seem to be interviewing high profile investor Jim Mellon every other week, it would appear churlish not to look at InterQuest (ITQ) and his increased stake in the specialist recruitment group. I presume Jim Mellon did not make his millions from studying charts. However, it could be argued Mr Mellon behaved as a chartist…
