today's papers show why AIM stocks can be such a dodgy investment

Certainly agree, but nothing wrong with the 2013 climb in the sp. Also plenty of time to jump the sinking ship with still a good profit.Even if an investor hung on in hope of the sp climbing again. Many aim shares are like this. My view - get in early and go with the flow if it heads north or indeed leave if the sp heads to far south for your liking. Chart no different for Wand, but again the early bird catches the worm.

I fear 30p....or less for this....

Shares on Friday - From AIM pin-up to 'rubbish AIM company,' to quote one IT analyst today.

The problem is : there is no business.....it would only work for perhaps an african company is some remote part of the world that does not have access to all networks and needs help....otherwise...unfortunately...I fear this is going to sink....

Chief executive Philip Letts said: "2014 signified an important shift at blur Group, simply, the transition to the larger enterprise. The business has learned and matured and is now successfully attracting both the enterprise buyer and service provider We have moved from being a broad-based business, servicing a wide range of small, medium and large customers, to one that today is focused on the medium and large enterprise.

"I believe that with our fundraise in 2014 coupled with established maturity in reporting we have the cash resources to execute our strategy. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Robert for the significant time and support that he has given to the Group over the past few years."

blur Group has warned shareholders the value of their holdings could be severely reduced or become nil unless it secures alternative near-term financing within the next few weeks.

The group - which had cash balances of $1.14m at the end of May - said market soundings had taken place with new and existing potential cornerstone investors to provide additional financing to deliver the board's updated business plan.

But it said some of the investment terms put forward in these discussions included a number of onerous conditions which the board considered were not in the best interests of shareholders.

The group said the board was now evaluating alternative sources of funding but if this was not forthcoming within the next three to six weeks the board would be required to take action to protect the interests of creditors.

It said this could result in the value attributable to shareholders being severely reduced or becoming nil.

blur's quarterly business update announced on 8 February said the cash burn for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $0.9 million ($1.0m in Q3 2016).

It said this rate of cash burn had stayed broadly constant in the year to date, and cash balances at 31 May were $1.14m.

The group said its business plan for the coming months focused on furthering its enterprise customer strategy by establishing additional high value relationships with blue chip multinational customers from a variety of sectors, while optimising the cash requirement of the business and shortening the path to profits.

It said this was planned to be achieved by implementing a number of actions intended to further focus and streamline the business.

It said these include:

- reduction in fixed salaries and fees of the management team and board and a shift towards a more incentive-based remuneration approach

- as the head office lease reaches its conclusion in the coming period, assessing the suitability of current rented office space and evaluating potentially more efficient alternatives

- more tightly focused Sales and Marketing effort prioritising specific enterprise targets, to maximise the return on investment

- ensuring delivery teams are appropriately sized as platform roll outs are achieved with higher levels of automation across blur's platform

- ensuring appropriate level of investment in blur's technology given the recent releases increasing both automation and functionality

- optimisation of overall operational costs, providing sufficient resources for current levels of trading as well as ability to grow revenues

The group said trading since 31 December had been in line with forecasts and the company expected to announce its final results on 29 June.

800p in 2014, great days. :-))
