Anglo American Plc (LSE:AAL) , on fertile ground

#Gold #Nasdaq   Our excuse to review Anglo American can be blamed on YouTube and a clickbait headline claiming “British is Building A Massive New Super Mine That Nobody Has Heard Of”. The tone of the blurb in the first few minutes led to a suspicion this was just another ‘fanboy’ presentation, doubtless describing something which will never make it past the drawing board. Such was the level of breathless anticipation, it made sense to fast forward to the end to discover who was behind the project.

With the discovery Anglo American were involved, it felt justified spending some time to discover what it was all about as perhaps there’s something useful about an ore called polyhalite. It’s a mineral used in fertiliser, containing potassium, sulphur, magnesium, and calcium etc. Due to all the goodies and the fact it doesn’t require chemical witchcraft, the product is deemed suitable for organic farming and this deposit on North Yorkshire is the largest discovered in the world (so far). The Anglo American website can provide more information than any sane person needs know about the project and the product but, for a pleasant change, the YouTube recommendation wasn’t pointing toward something without foundations.

Instead, it seems Anglo American are on to something.

 

Unfortunately, if this is the case, their share price isn’t looking terribly enthusiastic. Instead, quite the converse appears possible as the share price looks capable of enjoying some further reversals. Now below 1950p should prove capable of triggering reversal to an initial 1744p and hopefully, due to the presence of the Red uptrend since 2016, a bounce. We can argue for a scenario pointing at 1401p as a “bottom”, should 1744p break but realistically, we’d prefer demanding this share price actually closes below Red before committing to such a target level. There’s a little problem, should the share price manage to close below Red, as it moves into a region where a ridiculous looking longer term cycle to 654p becomes possible.

Surprisingly, Anglo American doesn’t need try too hard to commence an emergency recovery cycle as above 2030p should now trigger price recovery to an initial 2131 with secondary, if exceeded, at 2230. Quite what excuse the share price has to produce these 100 increments is beyond us. But assuringly, should 2230 be exceeded, an impressive 2447p calculates as possible, along with a price level where we shall require revisit the company.

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.
