Very rarely will a corporate website fit the criteria “you got me at the first sentence!” but #Pensana Plc managed this feat. Their headline “Building The Worlds First Sustainable Magnet Metal Supply Chain” deserved immediate approval. The reason, a personal fascination with Neodymium Magnets. These things, finding uses everywhere, are amazing, capable of holding up to 1,000 times their own weight. They’re not toys and find themselves used everywhere. Even our garden gate closes quite firmly, thanks to a little magnet strategically placed.

More recently, a project to build a “rock tumbler” ran into an issue, the rotating cylinder tending to squirm its way along the rolls and eventually climb out of the tumbling frame. The solution proved simple, a magnet inside the cylinder and a magnet at the end of the frame. When the two identical poles came into each others proximity, the cylinder was repelled and would squirm its way in the opposite direction for a while. A nice simple solution with no moving parts.

Obviously, rare earth magnets are used extensively in other flippant areas, such as electric vehicles, wind turbines, fridge magnets… etc.

 

The surprise with all this enthusiasm for magnets is the current state of Pensana Plc share price. By our usual standards, we’re supposed to imply it risks heading to 2.5p but recently, at the start of April, price movements ticked the first box to cancel the break below the Red uptrend. The share price broke trend at 80p at the start of February this year, immediately making a visit to 2.5p a genuine risk. However, at the start of April, the share exceeded the point of trend break, strongly suggesting the drop threat is no longer lingering with intent. Instead, we should apparently be search for triggers which imply imminent gains, if such are possible against the background of the current stock market.

Visually it appears sane to allocate the most recent high of 93p as a viable trigger level. Movement above this level calculates with the potential of gains to an initial 122p. Our longer term secondary, if this initial ambition is exceeded, works out at 153p. Beyond such a level, we shall prefer to examine the tea leaves again as some quite disproportionate gains appear possible.

Perhaps the company intend develop a share price magnet… For everything to go horribly wrong, the share now requires trade below 59p as once again, our ridiculous potential of 2.5p shall become valid.

Many thanks to the nice folk who effectively “buy the coffee” when clicking on a fascinating advert on this page.

Sometimes things are not what they seem. A TV interview with Queen musician, Brian May, was a visual surprise. The guy has gradually turned into a clone of Top Gear bloke, James May! He only needed start talking about the awkward float valve in an old SU carb to complete the visual illusion. Barclays, once upon a time a share which radiated hope for recovery has morphed, now joining a select group of very few shares trading below their “Russia” drop from March 7th.

Despite the “Russia” drop being to 142p and Barclays recently hitting 140p, only very slight hope may be taken from the 10p bounce as the share price has failed to to move into the realms of safety. Worse, from our perspective, by wandering below 142p, the share has triggered a serious reversal potential. Ongoing weakness below 140p now suggests the threat of a an initial 132p with secondary, if broken, a hopeful “bottom” at 96p.

Strange to say, the only thing giving some hope is the Blue downtrend which dates back 10 years. For some reason, movements against Barclays since July of 2021 are attempting to treat this Blue trend as important. We fear this level of respect is only a bad news story away from being broken, the visuals tending suggest a plunge to 95p should impress folk looking to grab a piece of the UK banking sector for under a quid…

 

To get out of trouble, above 151p is supposed to generate a lift to an initial 156p. If exceeded, our secondary works out at 169p which sounds useful but unfortunately fails to exceed any sort of recent highs. At present, Barclays requires above 184p to suggest a comprehensive attempt is being made to escape the zone which increasingly looks capable of dragging the price down to 96p.

#FTSE #WallSt

Sometimes it’s possible to utterly confuse yourself by looking at something too closely. Other times, you risk crashing in flames, ‘cos you didn’t bother looking. And at present, it’s worth looking at the FTSE every which way, because it’s behaving utterly cluelessly. We’ve always the fear; “If it ain’t goin’ up, it’s gonna go down” will apply when shares behave this way, so perhaps we should look for dangerous drop triggers against the London main index.

 

The immediate chart below reviews minute by minute movements on the FTSE, since the start of March. Visually, it’s pretty clear things have proven fairly tepid since the start of April, the market effectively flatlining. The previous high on the FTSE was 7688 points, achieved on February 10th, and the market has yet to attempt to exceed such a level. To be fair, there’s a heck of a strong argument demanding the FTSE head to 7740 points next, if only the index would wander above the Blue line on the chart. At time of writing, this Blue level is at 7637 points and we shall prove as attainable as a UK politician telling the truth. To be blunt, the closer the index approaches the trend, the greater the chances of the market opting to react in a negative fashion. Hence, our suspicion we need to check drop triggers.

It looks like the first indication of real trouble shall come, if the FTSE stumbles below 7594 points as this calculates with the potential of sharp reversal to an initial 7538 points. The visuals against such a reversal tend imply a reasonable chance of a bounce, given all the market lows in the first week of April. Things become a little more dangerous, should 7538 break as travel down to a secondary at 7436 works out as possible.

At this level, things risk becoming nastier than a Scottish ‘summer’ day, due to the need for divine intervention to inhibit a further reversal cycle which eventually approaches the 7200 point level…

 

During the course of Thursday evening, news from the USA regarding potential interest rate changes provoked hysterics on most indices. In common with the rest of the world, FTSE futures dropped sharply but we feel the level at which the real market opens on Friday morning shall be crucial, both in defining if the FTSE faces some near term drops or, if the market opens the day above 7594 points, a slight chance for another day enjoying watching London do very little…

Have a good weekend and enjoy the Italian GP.

Our weekly trawl of Europe turned up Ceconomy, describing themselves as “We are more than a retail company – we are the European leader for concepts and brands in the field of consumer electronics. With our products, brands and solutions, we simplify life in the digital world.” Alas, their share price movements currently say something rather less optimistic and with their Q2 results due on 13th May, it’s easy to imagine some negative action.

Of course, there’s a caveat and it’s all to do with my dentist. Thanks to some really restrictive practices during the Covid-19 period, a visit to the dentist revealed 4 teeth required extraction, the four front ones. The operation took place today and proved to be the most unpleasant and painful experience ever had in a dental surgery. There was blood, there was sweat (the dentist) and there were uncontrollable tears as the guilty gum abscess did its best to ensure anaesthesia didn’t  work well. Long story short, it’s unlikely the writer is in the best frame of mind to look favourably on a share price!

With Ceconomy looking like it intends wither on the vine, the share probably is volunteering itself as the ideal target for a bout of misery.

 

There’s been something quite peculiar going on as share price movements this year are proving quite unreliable. The price has been carefully walked down what should be the historical downtrend since 2018. As the chart inset highlights, it’s hard to escape the impression this slow visual murder is anything but deliberately engineered as we wonder if the dramatics intend conclude with a nasty stab downward to a bottom, hopefully a level capable of provoking a rebound?

This being the case, weakness now below 3€ looks very capable of driving reversal to an initial 2.5€. If broken, our ‘longer term’ secondary target works out at 1.5€ and hopefully an ultimate bottom for the share. For everything to suddenly come up roses, the share price needs exceed 3.8€ to enter a region where a recovery cycle toward an initial 4.5 makes some sense. If exceeded, our secondary calculates at a visually sane 5.8.

Importantly, closure above 4.5€ is liable to prove game changing for the long term, making an attempt at 5.8€ very probable but realistically, we’d need admit a long term target of 7.2€ has become possible. Perhaps it’s the pain of dentistry talking but I suspect this intends head to 1.5 and a hopeful bottom. Perhaps worth watching.

Kenmare Resources Plc, an established mining company, operate in Mozambique. Therefore, they obviously have absolutely nothing in common with the “twee” Scottish village of Kenmore in Perthshire, home of what is probably the tightest hairpin bend in existence. It’s a pity, ‘cos the email request immediately reminded on the time my wife and her motorbike vanished at slow speed into the heather as we made our way down to Kenmore.

 

However, Kenmare Resources Plc do present a mildly interesting facet of share price history, especially what can happen when a share suffers a 190:1 share split. Historically, we abhor these movements as they almost never work out well for folk who were invested prior to the “here’s One Share to replace your existing One Hundred and Ninety Shares”. When the price of Kenmare is adjusted to handle the manipulation, there’s visually little chance of the price ever achieving recompense for the folk trapped from the days in 2012, when the price was around 630p. It now needs achieve 120,000p just for these folk to break even.

The chart below endeavours to outline how painful this is for long term investors. While it was certainly not a fun experience watching the share tumble from the 630p level to under a penny, just 4 years later, the share split has only served to make the price once again sound respectable, leaving many folk destined to ‘walk funny’ due to the massive reduction in real value.

Importantly though, the flatline isn’t quite as flat as the Big Picture chart implies, the share price now trading roughly twice the level when the split occurred and, perhaps more importantly, some folk who’ve been invested since 2015 are now showing an actual profit! Better still, it feels some continued price recovery is now possible as movement above 530p looks capable of provoking ongoing travel to an initial 552p with secondary, if bettered, at 588p and some probable hesitation.

For the longer term, closure above 588p shall prove crucial as this would emplace the share price in a region where influences from before the 190:1 share split become viable. As a result, we can calculate a future 683p as presenting a logical future ambition.

Finally, thanks for the emails regarding the photo of the muddy Easter dog. Glad to know it’s not just our monster who does this.

Share prices can behave like dogs. Sometimes, you just don’t know what they’ll do next. Easter monday and the familiar dog route – without needing a waxed cotton jacket for the first time this year – proved memorable. The almost white Golden Retriever decided she had always wanted to try chocolate brown, nose diving into a peat bog. Natwest share price is starting to feel poised for trouble also, the share enjoying plenty of reasons to head upward, yet refusing to do so.

It begs the question, do Natwest intend head into a peat bog?

Currently the share price needs decline below 206p to suggest coming trauma as such a movement risks promoting reversal to an initial 192p. If broken, our secondary calculation runs deep at 181p, effectively matching the depths of the Russia drop in March. Visually, should such a number appear, there’s certainly considerable hope for a bounce.

However, we remain slightly optimistic for Natwest, due to the pattern of price movements during the last few months. The immediate situation hints, quite strongly, of movement above 226p being capable of a lift to 236p next with our longer term secondary working out at 260p, an ambition which should prove game changing for the share.

All Natwest need to is to start moving…

#FTSE #Gold

Some slight hope is apparent the FTSE should finally do something positive. Then again, it’s maybe just everyone looking forward to the chocolate jamboree over the coming Easter weekend, along with the first real stock market holiday of 2022. So far, April has proven quite frustrating, plenty of little nudges in the right direction, all invariably failing to come to fruition thanks to marketplace nerves about Russia, Johnston, inflation, the Chancellor, interest rates, parties, Covid-19, and anything else which takes the media’s fancy.

Meanwhile, there’s some concern among some sections of the media over reports the largest comet ever recorded is heading toward our planet and intends give it a miss… A bit of a pity as any excuse is always welcome to avoid trimming the lawn edges.

 

The FTSE closed Wednesday at 7580 points and now, need only exceed 7600 to enter a cycle toward an initial 7623 points. If bettered, our secondary ambition comes along at 7644 points and there’s something extremely interesting at such a level. Essentially, above 7644 and there’s very little impediment toward the FTSE entering a sharp race uphill toward 7735 points!

Should things decide to go the other way, our reversal scenario is fairly straightforward. Weakness now below 7550 points looks capable of promoting reversal to an initial 7501 points with secondary, if broken, down at 7424 points.

For the present, we’re inclined toward FTSE optimism, though perhaps it’s the threat of enjoying a couple of days break which, against all rules, look certain to be accompanied by good weather. Have a good weekend.
