Weir Group, a reminder of Playboy!

#SP500 #BrentCrude New returnee to the FTSE 100, we’d hoped the market throw a surprise party. Alas, the converse seems true. A chum worked at Weirs Pumps Glasgow unit in the 1980’s, a designer who was never comfortable with the morning commute. One day, instead of his daily paper for the train, he noticed Playboy magazine had a prominent article on a motorcycle, one he really wanted to buy. Needless to say,  “legend” status was achieved, sitting reading Playboy while surrounded by folk reading the Guardian or whatever, everyone frantically trying not to look over his shoulder. The monthly Playboy habit stuck and for years was known as the guy who literally bought Playboy for the writing.

 

As mentioned, there appears to be a lack of a party mood for Weirs, quite the converse at present. Presently trading around 1875p, the share need only slip below 1789 to enter a cycle toward an initial 1593p. Despite the visuals implying the possibility of a rebound at such a level, the longer term secondary of 1186p looks more capable of providing a “bottom” sometime in the future, especially as it covers the market gap from October last year.

Surprisingly, we’d a “however”, one which dates back to the downtrend since 2014. Twice this year, the market has shown this vague trend can be exceeded and it’s not terribly difficult to surmise any future nudge above shall present a picture of growth.

Effectively, above just 1990p should prove useful, entering a continued growth cycle to an initial 2272 with secondary, if exceeded, calculating at a longer term 2527p and some probable hesitation.

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.
