Good morning!

There is plenty of juicy news for us to digest today.



Crusader Resources (LON:CAS) - this little gold exploration company is seeking to cancel its AIM admission. It was listed only in April 2018, and was suspended as soon as October.

Is this a record in terms of speed to failure? It's a shame that this kind of junk is still floating around.

Significant Property Opportunity

Spaceandpeople had a trading update only yesterday, but is back again with another update. It has commenced a tie-up with Hammerson (LON:HMSO) to provide retail experiences and (on an exclusive basis) its "Mobile Promotions Kiosks" at Hammerson properties.

No numbers are given - all we know is that it's a multi-year contract. The company has made plenty of announcements like this before. While it's hardly bad news, my assumption is that this announcement does not mean a dramatic change in the company's fortunes.

Final Results

Another stock that is deep in "why are you even listed?" territory.

You might equally be asking "why are you even writing about it?"

This is a stock where I lost a significant amount of money, having been attracted by a superficially cheap valuation several years ago. I learned several lessons from it, so I'm intrigued to see the eventual fate of the company.

It turns out that FY 2018 results from this architectural group are a disaster and yet they could have been even worse, if the company's management of its costs and its cash balance had not saved it.
