#Brent #Dax We’d a cunning plan for a Formula 1 free weekend, binging on “Clarkson’s Farm” in the knowledge the rest of 2025’s TV viewing was going to be lacking. Once again, Clarkson knocked it out of the park, visibly falling to bits on screen and clearly exasperated by staff members deluging him with problems, never any suggested solutions. Anyone who’s ever been an employer could easily relate to what was happening but, (spoiler alert) no ambulance was called for Clarkson, despite him clearly needing one, his blood pressure visibly exploring new highs!
Obviously, the guy, his subjects of farming and buying a pub, is a matter of personal taste, but hopefully he survives to produce a further series next year as it made fascinating viewing. We watched 4 episodes on Saturday, 4 on Sunday, and unlike a Grand Prix weekend, we didn’t feel our time was wasted. I’d be surprised is anyone who has employed staff, didn’t jump up and pace with shared frustration during the final episode. As can be assumed, in our opinion Clarkson has produced yet another commendable series. We can only speculate if he intends produce a range of pork, called “Richard Ham”.
As for Natwest, news of the company allegedly paying off the last of its debt to the UK taxpayer, is perhaps proving capable of driving the share price into a cycle where some real hope is available for the future. While we cannot plot out any trajectory which suggests hope for the folk trapped with a share price adjusted average at around 23 quid, since the price appears to have confirmed the downtrend since 2007, we can calculate an absurd sounding attraction as coming from a distant 1404p on the current cycle. As long as the price doesn’t discover an excuse to close a session below 484p, we shall cling to this hope with similar fervour Mr Clarkson holds for his little pig, Richard Ham.
We’ve even got considerable hope for the nearer term, the big picture allowing us to adjust our target levels upward. Apparently, movement next above 537p should now target an ambition at 600p with our longer term secondary, if beaten, at a future 767p. We’re a little sceptical at this outpouring of affection for NWG share price, especially as we fondly referred to it as “the clown bank” due to their share price movements back in the days when the company was honestly called RBS. Essentially, we’d initially thought a breakout target would be around 570p but now, things appear to have changed.

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.
