Month: February 2019

Versarien #Nasdaq #CAC40 We reviewed #Versarien last week (link here), assuming it was going to take time to reverse from 114 down to 87. Recent price moves explained, concisely, why we avoid giving timescales. We’re not Dr Who and a share price can make all the right (or) wrong steps, then shuffle to our target levels eventually, the speed element defying any logic. But generally, it will get there!

Glencore #Gold #SP500 With the changing fortunes against the price of Gold, it made sense to review one of the major miners. Of course, it was only once we completed the report did we notice Glencore are famous for everything – except Gold. A typical Monday ‘oops’ moment!

Mixed Bags of #Gold Nuggets. #Dax #Brent We tried something new at the weekend, giving a talk to the local (in Argyll) business community on thoughts for the future, Post-Brexit, using varied instruments as the basis of discussion.

Halfords #DAX #CAC40 On the basis nothing says “Happy Valentine” quite like a muddy mountain bike… we’re taking a look at Halfords. Certainly, if the media are to be believed, post-Brexit we will be unable to afford cars, in a post-apocalyptic world, cycling everywhere. In fact, a bit like London already!

Versarien #CAC40 #Nasdaq Our last review of this company (link here) highlighted a share which was expected to drop. It hasn’t, really! But neither has the price managed to go up, instead it’s been splashing around, pretending to be interesting – until now. Continue reading “Trends and Targets for 13/02/2019”

Barclays Bank #Gold #SP500 At the start of 2019, #Barclays was ‘almost’ looking interesting. We’ve commented on our in-house thinking; the Banking Sector shall prove the real barometer of Brexit prospects. If this is the case, the prospects look pretty confused presently.
