Shell Plc (LSE:SHEL), more profits due?

#Brent #Nasdaq

An unexpected advantage of receiving the Covid/Flu vaccines is a surprise inability to hear the faux screams of impoverished politicians confronted with Shell’s recent incursion into the kingdom of obscene profits, largely due to profiteering. A strange side effect is similar to a head cold, my hearing ability currently resembling someone wearing headphones, while listening to Yoko Ono music.

I’m told to anticipate also enjoying a fever, sometime within the next 36 hours.

However, looking at the bar chart which supplies Shell’s performance each quarter since 2008, there was an immediate temptation to grab the numbers and run a series of calculations similar to those we use for shares. Unless Shell are careful, it looks like their next 1/4 report in January should be in the region of 11bn again, slightly below their July figure from earlier this year but a whimsical 2bn above Octobers figures, a number which doesn’t sound like it shall leave the company destitute. It’ll certainly be interesting to see how valid this projection proves, especially as oil prices continue to relaxThe company also announced the 5th increase in the level of dividend, since the pandemic low.

Hopefully the company remember to secrete some of their profits for the future, in preparation for future business interruptions.

Currently, Shell appear to be enjoying some useful potentials as we’ve two distinctly separate formula, each pointing at a future attempt around 2800p. We’re a little curious about this ambition as it visually challenges the high of 2018, when the share price reached 2810p. Our future target is marginally below the previous high, a reality which may prove problematic.

At time of writing, Shell are trading around 2356p and above just 2483p should be sufficient to kick-off another share price surge, giving an initial target at 2577p with our secondary, if beaten, calculating at 2797p and some almost certain hesitation. As always, we’ve an alternate scenario, one which suggests weakness below 2248p risks promoting reversal to an initial 2011 with our secondary, if broken, coming along at 1866p and a possible bounce.

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.
