Cineworld Group Plc and the yellow brick road.

#Gold #SP500 The exterior visuals of our local cinema, here in our bit of Argyll, tend allow speculation as to whether they still show “Gone With The Wind”. From an exterior glance, the building fails to achieve any form of modernity, while failing to display a single sign of architectural creativity. Inside, it’s thankfully a different story, incredibly comfortable, despite a ticket booth which always reminds of the “Back to the Future” movies for some reason.

Now, as an early vaccine adopter and recently armed with the 2nd booster shot for Covid, it’s tempting to visit the cinema again as some reasonable titles are being released. Plus, there’s always a slight feeling of guilt at failing to support a local business, an ancient cinema which has survived without being part of a chain, yet still manages to charge absurd prices for goodies from the foyer. And this, of course, brings us to Cineworld and the very last sentence of our report in July last year (link), when we mentioned;

For now, we suspect it intends head toward 44p, hopefully failing to break such a level and giving a fairly strong level to rebound from.

On December 13th last year, the price closed the session at 44.13p and we sat back, eating popcorn and waiting for a bounce. Alas, the next day it broke below the critical 44p level, shuffling down to 43.8p briefly in a movement which justified a Spock from Star trek raised eyebrow. This was a small danger sign, something like a little itch in your nose which precedes an enormous sneeze. Just a day later, the sneeze happened with the share price being gapped down to 33p at the open. The market clearly had other ideas for the direction Cineworld were due to take.

 

There are a couple of small points which are perhaps noteworthy. Firstly, there’s the Blue trend line on the chart, a line the share price has being paying close attention to this year. This innocent looking line dates back to 2017, an era when Cineworld traded at 700p. Secondly, when a share price reacts to such a trend, there’s an implication of the potential forces which may become apparent, should the price manage to close a session above Blue. We’re not suggesting any sort of recovery to 700p but experience has taught jumps upward tend be flamboyant, in circumstances where the starting point for a share trend is significantly higher. As Cineworld are currently trading around 1/20th of their high, quite a lot of force could be with it…

To dwell on the current potential downsides, below 33p threatens reversal to 28p next, hopefully with a proper bounce. If broken, our longer term secondary calculates at 17p and “ultimate” bottom, the level below which we run out of numbers. Should the 17p level make a guest appearance, perhaps a Glass Floor shall form as this visual matches prior lows from 2020.

 

Thankfully, there are sufficient reasons for a “However” as above 40p looks capable of triggering recovery to an initial 54p with secondary, if bettered, working out at a longer term 78p. This is an early example of the possibilities for strength, thanks to the price once trading substantially higher. We’ve given a few teasers above this level on the chart below but realistically, we shall prefer revisit if the 78p level ever stars in this lots future.

 

Many thanks to the nice folk who find an advert worthy of visiting on this page. Keeps us in Taylors Lazy Sunday coffee beans!

Our commentary is in two sections. Immediately below are today’s updated comments. If our commentary remains valid, the share can be found in the bottom section which has a RED heading. Hopefully, this will mean you no longer need to flip back through previous reports. HYPERLINKS DISABLED IN THIS VERSION

Please remember, all prices are mid-price (halfway between the Buy and Sell). When we refer to a price CLOSING above a specific level, we are viewing the point where we can regard a trend as changing. Otherwise, we are simply speculating on near term trading targets. Our website is www.trendsandtargets.com.

UPDATE. We often give an initial and a secondary price. If the initial is exceeded, we still expect it to fall back but the next time the initial is bettered, the price should continue to the secondary. The converse it true with price drops.
