Games Workshop Plc (LSE:GAW), trading around 20,340 at time of writing

#FTSE #WallSt A client emailed asking us to examine Games Workshop, a share we’ve forgotten about, probably quite wilfully. A personal guilty secret is a love of Science Fiction writing but unfortunately, the folk who catalogue books include “fantasy” such as Star Wars, Dr Who, and Games Workshops main product, “Warhammer” in the category of Sci-Fi. Unfortunately, there’s an extremely large bunch of Warhammer fans who enthusiastically self publish a massive range of Warhammer stories, based on the popular game from Games Workshop. Accidentally downloading a few of the Warhammer audio-books, none proved of sufficient interest to justify getting beyond the first chapters, and thus the theme joined Star Wars & Dr Who in my personal “blocked” list in the Sci-Fi category.

However, this personal foible hasn’t proven sufficient to dampen Games Workshop share price rise. The company employ a “zero tolerance” approach to those who impinge their Intellectual Property, this doubtless being the reason fans produce so much literature, rather than models, coffee mugs, t-shirts, images, maps, for which Games Workshop jealously protect their copyright. Another company who use “zero tolerance” for their character sets is Disney and the policy certainly hasn’t harmed them.

It’s quite interesting – from our nerd perspective – to note Games Workshop (GW to their friends) are now trading above our logical “Top”, the number beyond which we normally be unable to calculate. This worked out at 18,941p and with a relatively impressive degree of confidence, the market managed to confirm our calculations with the current very visible pause around the 19,000p level. But we’re starting to suspect the current hiatus may yet prove just a stutter for the future as now, above 20,340p should apparently trigger a climb to an initial 20,606p. Our secondary, if bettered, works out at 21,304 and yet another all time high. In fact, our secondary target level is a bit arguable as we can also present a longer term ambition at a future 22,128p.

Who knew there was so much interest in the UK’s answer to Dungeons & Dragons. Perhaps the current UK Prime Minister should consider copyright on his speeches as it seems there is serious money to be made from Fantasy.

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.

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.
