#Gold #SP500 Hoping Monday would clarify market direction proved as great an idea as expecting a politician to interview well, when asked about Covid-19 planning. Sooner or later, someone is going to joke the “real victims” of this crisis are ministers of the UK’s Government. Another joke, particularly germane to the electric vehicle industry, came from the throwaway comment, “My car now gets 1 month to the gallon…” Within hours, this joke was painfully reflected in May’s Crude Oil contract prices.

Please remember, the fall in the price of Crude related to May Contracts only. Contracts for June and July are relatively healthy though this may change, if stagnation continues.

Monday proved to be a bit of a waste of time on the markets, until the price of May’s Crude contract fell apart. We suspect this is liable to provoke a little chaos on the index’s for Tuesday and beyond. As with our viewpoint against the US markets, we’ve opted to emplace a trend line since the start of 2016.

 

On the FTSE, we suspect the ruling downtrend was defined by movements between the 20th and 24th February. If this is indeed the case, the UK market presently requires exceed 6,331 points to break Blue on the chart. Early warning of a miracle shall be strength above 5950 points. Equally for the FTSE, there’s now a little problem if the market stumbles below 5,550 points. In such a scenario, if enters a cycle to 4,905 points with secondary, if broken, at a bottom (hopefully – this is a fingers crossed thing) now at 3,942 points.

 

Germany, similar to the FTSE, failed to give any real indication of direction with Mondays trade. We shall be inclined to take movements seriously should the index next make it above Red on the chart as apparently this should start a surge to 12,021 points with secondary, if exceeded, up at 12,958 points. There are already some indications Germany’s policy, unlike the UK, of not killing off their population is paying dividends though we wonder how their manufacturing dependency will cope as export demand shrinks. (Thanks to a compromised immune system, the writer has an axe to grind regarding the UK’s approach)

If we examine negative scenario, should Germany now trade below 10,050 then things risk going wrong. Initially we’re looking at a drop potential at 9570 with secondary, if broken, down at 8850. The secondary provides a dangerous issue, taking the index into a zone with 7000 awaiting, along with an ultimate bottom of 4,692 points.

 

Finally, France and the CAC40. France, presently trading around 4520, only needs exceed 4580 to give an early alert for some positive recovery. Allegedly, this should prove capable of driving the index up to an initial 5256 points with secondary, if bettered, at 5430 points. If opting to play safe, it might be wise to await the market regaining the Red trend line and presently, this implies a sane trigger level should be 4850 currently.

The other side of the coin comes if the French market recedes below 4,300 points as this risks reversal to an initial 4060 points. If broken, secondary calculates at 3699 points but realistically, if such a calamity falls, the index could rattle down to a bottom (again, fingers crossed) at 3071 points.

 

Our next collective project shall cover some commodities; Gold, Oil, and something else…

#Brent #DAX On Friday, we provided a perfect illustration as to how crazy the markets are presently. We’d given 5,799 as a reasonable UP target, a number the UK market dusted off after just 20 minutes, reaching 5,813 by 8.30am. As a result, all bets were off as there was a fair chance things had taken a “stupid pill”. Strangely, despite this flamboyance, only the lowly UK AIM market ended Friday with an expression of confidence. The European markets opted to end the session questioning the future whereas US markets appear to be optimistic!

 

We’re utterly beyond trying to figure out the “why” and instead, opted to embrace “why not”. To aid with this picture of the future, it’s worth looking at a collection of chart positions. For a fairly arbitrary reason, we’ve chosen the start of 2016 as the point to commence a baseline for growth. Our reason for selecting this as a start point for the USA markets came from the Nasdaq behaviour. For some reason, the initial Covid-19 reversal bounced at this trend on the Nasdaq. Both the DOW and SP500 opted to break their uptrend, the S&P already recovering above, the DOW on the edge of doing so.

The immediate situation is fairly straightforward. Should the DOW now trade above 24,600 points, it shall be viewed as entering a cycle to 26,900 points initially.

Should the S&P 500 now trade above 28,80 points, it shall be seen as heading to 3,067 points initially.

And if the Nasdaq now betters 8,880 points, it seems 9,020 shall provide a fairly straightforward ambition.

We’ve some trouble accepting this series of forecasts, despite our software suggesting it’s genuine. To be blunt, there’s too much going on to allow such insane levels of confidence. The proposals shown tend to suggest the levels of market reversal, unemployment, and deaths were all a dreadful mistake. But as we wrote earlier, there’s also a strong argument favouring people are hoping things will get better.

 

In keeping with our preference to show both sides of the coin, all the charts show reversal targets, each of which has already triggered if we use our conventional methodology. Early warning of things going wrong (again) should be weakness on the DOW below 21,700 points. On the S&P, movement below 2,570 should justify concern, and on the Nasdaq, below 7,700 justifies running shoes.

 

We’ll publish a similar comparative argument for the major European indices.

#FTSE #DOW Numbers can prove bothersome. For instance, the UK has 22% of the US’s population yet suffers 50% of its daily death rate. In America, unemployment is heading toward 20% and retail sales have dropped most on record. And in the closing minutes of the futures market on Thursday 16th, the FTSE rose by 80 points while Wall St rose by 300 points. Germany tallied up 125 points in the closing minutes of the day and Japan pulled 200 points from nowhere!

It’s true to remind folk the stock market is not the economy, more a reflection of how people are betting on the future. With so many people at home, doubtless glued to Bloomberg and CNBC on telly, we start to suspect the betting market is doing quite nicely as a result. Of course, if an economy has gone down the pan, so shall the stock market but we suspect we’re seeing the effects of a belief that “things shall get better” reflected in market movements.

The alternative could be true, people are just stupid and denying the evidence before them.

From a personal standpoint, I prefer to hope things shall get better eventually. The only little problem shall doubtless be any market recovery treated as “factored in” with the resultant scenario of positive news failing to budge the markets.

 

A brief reality check ensued during the day. After 10 years, a garden strimmer engine refused to stay running when it was finally awoken from its winter slumber. Even twitching a finger toward the throttle made the engine stall, suggesting some time was needed on YouTube, learning how to clean out the carburettor. After watching no less than 3 videos, a viewing experience which safely consumed an hour, there was apparently only one fix. You do not clean carburettors, you spend between 8 and 12 pounds and buy a new one. Following a further visit to Ebay, plenty were available from China only.

It transpires you can still dismantle a carb, clean it, assemble it, and the strimmer will run reliably. The downside hit hard, all excuses to avoid tackling the edges of the grass drowned out with the noise of a cheerfully burbling engine.

The reality check? There was absolutely no way a component was being ordered from China.

 

There are now two, quite different, game plans for Friday.

1. As for the FTSE for Friday, unfortunately, we need a return to the horror of numbers. The FTSE closed Thursday at 5,642 points but FTSE Futures after-hours surged up to 5,728 points. We believe something quite painful risks happening as there’s a very real risk of the FTSE being spiked up to somewhere around 5,725 points at the open on Friday. If this is indeed the case, movement above 5,725 claims to be capable of trying for an initial 5,740 with secondary, if exceeded, at 5,799 points.
2. If the market is not spiked up at the open, above 5,662 points is supposed to be capable of trying for an initial 5,698 points. If bettered, our secondary works out at 5,724 points.

We prefer Option 2 but suspect neither shall occur. Instead, another danger rears its head.

 

On the basis the market is spiked up at the open, perhaps to just above 5,700 points, there’s a reasonable argument favouring some reversals should be anticipated. If this is indeed the case, reversals taking the UK below Thursdays 5,577 risk reversal to an initial 5,500 points. If broken, secondary is down at 5,398 points.

 

Sorry about the foregoing. It’s as complex as a Soap storyline on TV but we suspect the surprise rise in market futures shall prove to be one of these absurd events, a need for the market to go up, so it can go down. Have a good weekend.

#Gold #France We often berate the media for their never-ending doom and gloom, then realise we can be guilty too. Last month, we warned of danger should #Lloyds slip below 47.8p (Link) and it did, ‘successfully’ hitting our drop target of 31p. We’re genuinely not proud about this sort of thing, just rather concerned thanks to Lloyds breaking our drop target briefly on the initial surge downward. Similar to yesterday’s glance at Barclays, we now need to stir the tea leaves again and recalculate future potentials.

At present, the share is trading around 29.75p.

There’s a pretty obvious trigger level residing at 27.7p as traffic below such a level is liable to deflate the share price down to an initial 26.7p. If broken, secondary calculates down at 21.25p and we’ve really hope for a reasonable rebound, if such a target level appears. The big problem, if the price CLOSES below 21.25 is the retail bank share price enters a region where our “ultimate bottom” works out at a silly sounding 5p.

 

One ray of hope with a target of 21.25p is it matches the low of 2011, when Lloyds Bank was given its final kicking thanks to the financial crash of 2008/9. Should the share price explore such a hideous depth, there’s an entire nation of chart watchers who will doubtless assume “double bottom”, jumping in to catch a solid rebound. We need to remind, yet again, this share cannot afford to close below such a target level as the implications are worse than a Downing St press briefing.

 

The slightly better news possible is if Lloyds would find sufficient reason to now trade above 35p. We hope this shall present itself as a trigger level to drive recovery up to an initial 40p with secondary, if exceeded, working out at a longer-term (or next day) target of 48p. Above such a level, it will be essential we return to tea leave stirring duties but certainly a sigh of relief will be justified.

#Brent #Dax A month ago, we devoted 29 words to speculate what would happen to Barc’s share price, if it floundered below 139p. Guess what, it did! (LINK) Unfortunately, the price broke our target 90p level repeatedly which means we must now concentrate on worse potentials.

The situation now suggests trauma, if the price meanders below 79p. Such a ridiculous movement allows continued travel downward to an initial 47p. If broken, our secondary works out at 26p and (hopefully) ultimate bottom. We cannot currently calculate a bottom level below 26p.

There is something slightly interesting about 47p as an initial drop target. This matches Barclays low of 2009, presenting a point where most of the world shall anticipate a rebound. We’d advocate caution if 47p breaks on any initial surge downward. It will tend to make a bounce short-lived and worse, confirm the potential of 26p making a guest appearance sometime in the future.

 

At present, Barclays requires to trade above 110p just to suggest any recovery “might” be real. Moves above 109p calculate with an initial bounce target of 121p with secondary, if exceeded, up at a more reasonable sounding 135p.

 

For now, we’re not holding our breath but are wearing a face mask…

#FTSE #DOW Usually, we’d be doing mental handstands, the period between Xmas and the Easter market break usually dragging on for years. This time, we were taken completely unawares by Easter, utterly surprised at the market closing on Friday and Monday. Where did that come from? Hopefully, we’re not the only folk aghast at the sudden appearance of a ‘holiday’. For us, the penny finally dropped once the US closed on Thursday.

Of course, we can’t actually do anything for the ‘holiday’. The demon grand-daughters cannot visit but equally, we can’t pack the dogs into the car and grab a ferry to an island with a decent beach and BBQ potentials. Absolutely nothing shall differentiate this weekend from every other recently except, perhaps, the weather.

 

On the other hand, the FTSE managed to close for the long weekend in a region which apparently permits some optimism. You’re going to need sit down for the next bit.

 

Our software claims movement now above 5,845 allows market travel to an initial 6,266 points. If exceeded, the secondary calculation is now at 6,499 points and beyond. Sharp-eyed readers will notice we’ve credited this potential entirely to ‘our software’, thanks to a decision to employ social distancing from the computer.

It will be worth remembering, come the market re-opening on Tuesday, all the bean counters who count death shall return to work. There’s the risk the media will joyfully find some truly dreadful numbers to gloat over, somehow managing to consign the fact it’s 4 days of misery into the small print.

 

For now, have a safe weekend. And enjoy the chocolate.

#Germany #SP500 First they stole the sky, then they stole society! Those who remember the eerie pause in air travel, following 911, will recall how spooky it was. Skies rarely absent an aircraft, were now devoid of traffic. Now, so are the roads and the sky. Our ‘bit’ in Argyll, Scotland, looks across a 3-mile wide sea loch to a main road, darkness usually punctuated by fast-moving motorcycles, trucks with rows of amber lights, thumping Harley’s and their mid-life crisis riders, the odd supercar whine, occasional police cars trying to calm things down. And of course, the blue lights of an ambulance attending a mess somewhere.

This evening, neither the distant road nor the sky above has anything moving. The new silence asked the question, where have all the people gone?

 

It’s unlikely G4S have locked them up, if we judge by the share price…

 

The recent plunge to 70p was distinctly worrying, this taking the price below a very critical level for the longer term. Normally we would have hoped 96p would provide a floor level but this theoretical trigger level was broken on the initial plunge. Therefore, despite a bit of a bounce, we’re concerned for the future and can present some “what if it all goes wrong” numbers.

Now below 70p suggests the potential of further travel down to 43p next, a point where a real bounce can be hoped for. But should 43p break, ultimate bottom works out at 6p.

 

If a turnaround in the share price is hoped for, we initially need to see it trade above 102p. Such an event allows a trigger to an initial 125p. If exceeded, our secondary calculation works out at 150p.

Who knows, perhaps the reports of police issuing “on the spot” fines to people caught with a bottle of wine among their grocery shopping, the crime apparently being of non-essential shopping. To be honest, we suspect this story comes from the Facebook School of news. Can you imagine politicians being told not to drink?
