Unilever Plc (LSE:ULVR), escaping the ice cream meltdown?

#Gold #SP500

Unilever are engrossed in a pantomime legal dispute with a company they own, the Ben & Jerry’s brand. The levels of hilarity are already at 11 on a scale of 1 to 10. We’re boycotting Israel, announce the ice cream company. Oh No You’re Not, says their owner, Oh Yes We Are, say Ben & Jerry’s board. Unilever opted to stop paying board members who refused to fall in line.

Additionally, Unilever establish another company to market Ben & Jerry’s product in Israel, an easy task as they already own the company.

A group of 28 managers within Ben & Jerry opted to write to the CEO of Unilever, protesting what was going on and complaining Unilever were impeding their activism in Israel. The whole thing is starting to sound similar to the can of worms Mr Musk uncovered with his takeover of Twitter, a corporate body hosting a management structure which has managed to forget why they’re in business. The oil companies (and tobacco industry) are old hands at this game, pretending to care but in reality, they are in business to make money. Admittedly, BP pulled a classic on the public back in 2004, their “caring” advertising campaign encouraging each member of the public to be aware about reducing their personal carbon footprint.

The phrase has become a fixture in the climate change chorus book.

The reality is BP’s adverting folk were under extreme pressure from corporate to “do something” about the bad PR the company faced (around 8 companies worldwide apparently produce around 80% of pollution) and some genius came up with the idea of blaming the public. The entire concept of a Personal Carbon Footprint, invented by a marketing department, ensured the corporate could continue with their behaviour unchanged.

But when managers in a business start talking about “our activism”, surely it’s time for eyebrows to head upward. The forthcoming court case should prove interesting, a company essentially at war with itself.

 

However, with regard Unilever share price, things are looking tastier than Ben & Jerry’s ice cream which, in solidarity with my allergy to egg, remains untried.

The immediate situation suggests movement exceeding 4163p should make a recovery attempt to 4239 next with secondary, if beaten, calculating at a very viable looking 4553p. This secondary target level should prove crucial from a Big Picture perspective as closure above such a level places the share “at risk” of a future attempt at 5460p and a new all time high.

For everything to go horribly wrong, their share price needs close a session below 3800p.

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.
