#DAX #STOXX The market epic assigned to Liontrust Asset Management is LSE:LIO and it’s mildly interesting.. Because LIO is also Spanish for “being in a mess!”, it’s easy to assume the company share price is adhering to the core meaning for LIO rather than their failed attempt to hold an epic synonymous with the company name, almost! Unfortunately, they also now have an epic in LIO which aligns perfectly with the share price performance since 2021.
And make no mistake, it is a mess. Since the start of 2025, the share price has been trading in a zone where we cannot calculate a bottom target, not unless we start using minus signs in front of our drop numbers… However, some hope may be unearthed in the detail some sharp recovery is usually possible, if only the share price would successfully close a session above Blue on the chart below. Presently this demands CLOSURE above 270p to tick the first box in a journey toward a happier place.
Share price closure above 270 should trigger recovery to an initial 318 with our secondary, if bettered, at 406p. This secondary risks becoming a problem, visually aligning with a series of hesitations during 2025 and thus, creating what looks like a stutter level sometime in the future. Despite overall, closure above 270p suggesting a long term cycle to 465 has commenced, we’d strongly suspect a bunch of folk trapped at the 4 quid level shall create selling pressure if the price returns to such a point, creating a self fulfilling prophecy.
If we employ our usual negative scenario, the best we dare suggest is movement below 205 presents a future 180p as a “potential” bottom but our inclination is to suspect sudden recovery is expected, if only the company can discover some good, tidy, orderly, news to feed to the marketplace.
Perhaps worth watching as we’ve been asked about this a few times.

SUCCESS above means both FAST & SLOW targets were met. ‘CESS means just the FAST target met and probably the next time it is exceeded, movement to the SLOW target shall commence.
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.
