#Gold #Nasdaq The long weekend proved perfect, from our perspective. On Sunday, we opted to skip the Monaco Grand Prix, visiting nearby Inverarey for lunch and a dog walk with our grand-children. Judging by the flak and fury the photo opportunity which is Monte Carlo generated, virtually all drivers finished in the same position they started the ‘race’. Surely, Formula1 management must now be forced to sort out the dreadful event. One funny thing about our trip to Inverarey is we pass a permanent sign which declared whether the A83 road is open or closed. This is essentially a roadside advert, broadcasting how utterly incompetent Scottish politicians are, making a decision to surrender to a a mountain which keeps sliding downhill and covering the road.
In addition to big electronic signs, the roads people opted to park a bunch of diggers and bulldozers in close proximity, ready to spring into life when bits of the mountain fall off! Any civilised country would either have built a new road avoiding the danger zone, or perhaps created an Alpine style of overhang to protect the road. However, it has been deemed more cost effective to do nothing, other than pay for maintenance of large LED signs, along with road crews in attendance 24/7. This isn’t a new problem, an issue which has been going on for years and ducked due to political cowardice, rather than phoning a company like Keller Plc and asking them to sort out the ongoing shambles.
Glancing at the Keller website, the problem with the A83 in Scotland is exactly up their street, a major project which would probably deserve inclusion in their “Projects” section!
With a share price presently trading around 1600p, some optimism looks justified for Keller as things are looking positive for the future.
Currently, share price movement above just 1608p looks capable of triggering gains toward a future 1830p with our secondary, if beaten, at a future 2185 and some very possible hesitation. The share price needs move below 980p to spoil the party, unfortunately giving the price plenty of bandwidth to flutter around before any solid surge upward. If choosing to play safe, waiting until the price exceeds the 2024 series of highs at around 1700p would make sense, if choosing an entry point. Regardless, there’s quite a lot to like with Keller’s share price movements.
Below 1195 risks a raised eyebrow, giving the potential for reversal to 1065p. This would drop the price into territory where the Big Picture expects a bounce. But should 1065 break, our secondary of 728p would take the share value below our 980p level, the point at which all our calculations are cancelled.

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.
