It’s easy to think of Bae Systems as the company where famous names in manufacture go to fade away and be forgotten. As the ultimate successor to so many famous British manufacturers, the company enjoy a back catalogue of enviable #1’s in the fields of aviation, electronics, and shipping. They are also the largest manufacturer in the UK, despite the efforts of various governments over the years.
When we reviewed Bae last year, it was with an expectation the war in Ukraine would prove to be a “nice little earner” for the defence contractor, a suspicion which has so far failed to become a reality. There’s nothing pointing to any immediate danger for the company share price, just a glacial pace of movement. For instance, when we ran our analysis in July 2022, the share price was trading at 826p. At time of writing, it’s at 856p, making its way up a hill which visually isn’t very steep. Our expectation remains of gains for the share price but rather than a stop-watch, we’d suggest using a calendar, if attempting to guess when some real movement is coming.
Our “problem” is fairly straightforward.
Share price gains exceeding 880p now point at an initial ambition of 947p, a target level arrived at by two different calculations, based on conventional near term scenario, along with a Big Picture scenario. Normally, we’d suspect a sudden spike upward will occur but, with Bae, our confidence is lacking as it looks like patience shall be key for the future. Our secondary above the 947p level now calculates at a distant 1004p.
If everything intends go wrong, the share price needs below 720p as this looks capable of triggering reversal down to an initial 630p with our secondary, if broken, working out at a potential 550p and hopefully a proper rebound.

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.
