The following stocks are the leading risers and fallers among London Main Market small-caps on Monday. ---------- SMALL-CAP - WINNERS ---------- Tao Alpha PLC, up 38% at 10.08 pence, 12-month range 6.10p-13.90p. Tao, which develops subnet infrastructure, where artificial intelligence is used for the purposes of cryptocurrency trading, reports it has made Henry Elder chief executive officer. ‘Henry will also join the board as an executive director, subject to the completion of due diligence checks, which we expect to conclude imminently,’ it adds. In addition, it reported that it acquired £2.5 million of bitcoin into a newly incorporated Singapore wholly-owned subsidiary. The bitcoin will be retained within a treasury. Bitcoin hit a new record high above the $122,000 mark on Monday. The rise coincides with a ’Crypto Week’ in the US, which aims to make ‘America the crypto capital of the world’. French Hill, chair of the US House Committee on Financial Services, announced the week earlier in July, with ‘three landmark pieces of legislation’ in the crypto space to be mulled over. ---------- Gore Street Energy Storage Fund PLC, up 3.8% at 65.60 pence, 12-month range 42.40p-69.00p. It has completed the sale of US investment tax credits worth a total of $84 million, exceeding its prior guidance and paving the way for special dividend payments later this year. The London-based investor in utility-scale energy storage projects says the sale relates to credits from its newly completed Big Rock project and follows a previously announced transaction involving credits from its Dogfish asset. The combined proceeds, net of insurance costs, mark the fund’s final sales of US tax credit entitlements. Gore Street aims to distribute a total of 3.00 pence per share before year-end, across two instalments of 1.50p each. ---------- SMALL-CAP - LOSERS ---------- LMS Capital PLC, down 11% at 19.20p, 12-month range 15.00p-24.69p. Shares in the investment company, with assets in the retirement living and energy sectors, return some recent gains. It had surged 11% over the course of last week. It had announced a ‘first return of capital’ on Tuesday. It will return £1.6 million to shareholders through a B share issue. Shareholders stand to receive a bonus issue of two new B shares for every one ordinary share owned. ---------- Copyright 2025 Alliance News Ltd. All Rights Reserved.
