#FTSE #DOW Choosing to investigate Pfizer became obvious, due to my rolling my sleeve up at 10.33am and received the utterly painless jab. It looks like I’ve had 9 vaccinations, only one from Astrazeneca back in the older days, all 8 others served up by Pfizer. The nurse asked if I wanted to go through the potential side effects, it was easy to shrug and leave as I’ve never experienced any grief from Pfizer. Until now…
Sitting working on this report, I’m being forced to stop every now and then and huddle over an electric heater. Literally every part of my body bursts into unexpected shakes, making typing quite an adventure. Zapping my forehead with a lazer temperature gauge boasts I’m healthy despite feeling like hypothermia is only a beep away. It’s safe to suggest I’m experiencing my very first Covid-19 vaccination side effects. Being now wrapped in winter clothing, wearing toasty snow boots and a room heat which is simply absurd. I can feel the heat of the air on my hands and face, both of which are freezing!
There’s a reasonable chance Wednesday shall be skipped as should I feel this way at 8am, my alarms shall be turned off as the side effect should only last 24 hours.
It’s now the case where above 25p calculates with the potential of a lift to an initial 31p with our longer term secondary, if beaten, at 38p. For the longer term, we can calculate a distant 41 is exerting an attraction.
Our alternate scenario allow below 22.5 to provoke reversal to an initial 21 with our secondary, if broken, an eventual bottom around 18p

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.
