Sorry, power outage here delayed everything.
#Gold #SP500 Watching the UK PM announce an AstraZeneca investment was painfully similar to watching an old TV show called Yes, Prime Minister, yet the broadcast media gleefully promoted the fantasy of the UK Government attracting new investment, rather glibly ignoring the “investment” was already underway, a partially completed building, a testament to AZN.L saying ‘stuff this’ last year. But somehow, the UK Government is presenting the fact AZN are restarting work as a success, when the actual story is quite the converse.
But the Prime Minister managed to sell a lie for a few minutes on BBC news, so we should all be grateful for absolutely nothing. It wasn’t a case of “let them eat cake”, it was a case of “let them eat IMAGINARY cake”.
The company share price isn’t looking great currently, the suggestion being weakness below 13,488p should drive reversal to an initial 12,760p with our secondary if broken, at 11,757p. In this instance, we can even suggest a third level drop target of 10,900p and perhaps a bounce.
Less likely is the prospect for recovery. Apparently, above 14,472p should trigger share price movement to an initial 15,127p with our longer term secondary, if broken, calculating at 11,757p Unfortunately, we lack any symptoms to refer to this messy level, other than to announce movement above 15,590 should be taken as a stain on the companies future price target levels.
Unfortunately, the visuals create quite a different opinion, hinting at a cycle to 10,900 has already commenced.

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.

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.
