Boohoo Plc (LSE:BOO) and the need for a lace hanky?

#FTSE #SP500 The decision by Boohoo to rebrand themselves as Debenhams has probably caused a sharp intake of breath among the online fashion industry. Boohoo, a brand predominantly aimed at the younger sector of the market, are surely liable to wonder why they’re no longer attractive, Debenhams historically being associated with older buyers. It is easier to suspect Boohoo have simply enjoyed their day in the sun and it’s now time for another newbie to become the next online industry “one hit wonder”.

Currently, Boohoo Plc share price isn’t in a happy place, the famously fashion conscious stock market obviously questioning their latest decision.

From a chart perspective – probably the safest stance from folk who regard waxed cotton jackets and wide brimmed hates as the pinnacle of style – Boohoo (or Debenhams as the renaming had immediate effect) are seriously in a pretty unhappy place. At present, weakness below 25.5 indicates the potential of reversal  to an initial 24p with our secondary, if broken, at 20p. We cannot calculate any target level below 20p without emplacing a minus sign in front of any number, such is the precarious position of Boohoo.

Currently trading around 26p, Boohoo share price needs (from our perspective) to exceed 26.25p, ideally triggering recovery toward an initial 30p with our secondary, if bettered, at 33.25p. Movement such as this would be significant, placing the share price in danger of achieving a distant game changing 38 and a return to long term optimism.

Unlike this weekends Australian Grand Prix, we think Boohoo shall prove worth watching. The comedy of the first “back to school” race of the F1 season has grown tiring over the years, drivers and pit crews making errors under pressure which give unrealistic expectations for the rest of the year.

Babcock International Group Plc (LSE:BAB)

#Gold #Nasdaq When we previously reviewed Babcock back in 2021, we provided some quite horrific criteria for a scenario which arithmetically would culminate in a bottom around 55p. Perhaps due to the period of geopolitical instability, their share price managed to wander in quite a different direction, the years since showing significant recovery from the 2 quid point at which we reviewed them. By “normal” criteria, the share price now trading around 7 quid is now showing some significant potentials for the future.

 

We use the term “normal” cautiously, the company being in the defence sector and therefore vulnerable to the disgusting effects of peace breaking out in the world, due to a US president who seems to disagree with the concept of wars. It’s certainly going to be interesting watching how the US defence industry responds to President Trumps initiatives to reduce warfare. Perhaps he shall prove more successful than a prior US leader who met his end in Texas, yet the administration still hasn’t released the entire archive of information relating to Kennedy’s death in a time long before most of us were born! But a popular conspiracy theory gives credit to the defence industry being implicated, due to his potential interference in their business.

With President Trump going after the Defence, Green, Oil, import, and Political Trough industries, there’s likely to be a queue forming behind Grassy Knolls wanting to have a short conversation with him. It can only be hoped his protection team have figured this out!

Currently, above just 720p risks triggering a share price launch in the direction of 830p next with our secondary, if bettered, a longer term 1042p. As the chart below shows, such ambitions make a lot of visual sense, surprising but also quite encouraging for the longer term. From a charty perspective, Babcock certainly produce an optimistic picture, their price being gapped above the long term downtrend since 2014, achieving an official “higher high”  above the pre-pandemic spike at the start of 2020. and generally, a share which can be usually safely assumed to be in safe recovery territory. Due to the fragility of peace and stability, it’s probably accurate to assume the defence industry shall always win but some caution is suggested. After all, the share price need only close below 572p to turn our hopes for the future into a pile of minced numbers.

Barclays Plc (LSE:BARC) HEADING UP?

#brent #dow  A personal hobby of making wine, buying the appropriate grape concentrate from the appropriate area, is proving as irritating as the stock markets, due to discovering yet another area in life where time tends to be a fluid concept, understood by no-one. Thinking the sport of fermenting grape juice would prove as simple as following a recipe, this notion was a naive error. In fact, sometimes it feels like yeast for fermentation is almost sentient, capable of pulling the odd practical joke.

It’s fairly typical to find folk assuming the fermentation process will take 7 days, if the temperature is held between 20 and 25 degrees centigrade. An entire industry has grown, creating heating devices designed to maintain the temperature of the mix. But in reality, once the yeast starts to get busy munching on sugars, the liquid itself warms up and will generally stabilise between 22 and 24 degrees for around six days. Except for Tuesdays!

Due to habitually laying down a batch of wine at weekends, it generally takes until Tuesday when the yeast decide it’s time to hold a festival, often accelerating the process with some crazy CO2 bubbles emitted which can overflow the fermentation vessel. It all gets quite exciting, when you realise your brewing wine has help an overnight drunken yeast party but it’s still going to be a few days before the next phase of production. Or maybe another week or two, no two batches of yeast bothering to behaving in exactly the same way or with a similar timeframe. And as long as you’re not trying to make wine inside a fridge or cooker, you really do not need bother spending money on heating apparatus. The next phase kicks off, when the fermentation process has completed and the wine moved into a resting cask, an expectation it will take just a few days for the wine to clear, sediment and cloudy stuff sinking to the bottom of the container revealing perfect wine above. Except this phase falls into the “how long is a bit of string” category unless certain chemicals are added to the brew to ‘fine’ the product, artificially making it palatable ahead of time.

There’s a funny little issue at this point, where we’ve moved a wine into the settling phase but taken an inevitable sip, discovering in the process it was exceedingly palatable. This happened with a Merlot, a couple of bottles being set aside for personal research purposes, while the remaining 20 litres were consigned to the garden shed for a few weeks or months. Not a single taste has come close to matching the original “fresh from the oven” taste of the batch,  making us hope once it has cleared, it can be bottled to mature for a respectable amount of time to hopefully challenge our early result.

The reason behind this diatribe should be obvious.

We give trigger and target levels across the market place but readily concede, like our wine exploits, timeframes are impossible unless artificial aid is given.

 

When we previously reviewed Barclays, we gave closure above 302p as a trigger level, something the share price has achieved repeatedly since our prediction. Thus far, despite a few fake twitches upward, the share price hasn’t achieved any sort of significant surge. We’re inclined to take some hope from Lloyds and Natwest lunging upward, perhaps giving Barclays an indication of direction once it gets its act in gear and figures out a way to divorce itself from the contrived car finance scandal.

Share price movements over the last few weeks have certainly managed to provide a fairly confident outlook. Above 313p now calculates as capable of a visit to a confident looking 332p next, a point where some slight hesitation feels possible. Our longer term secondary, if such a level is bettered, now works out at 359p, a number which should be a stepping stone on a winding path to an eventual major target of 407p. Generally, we anticipate shares which jam themselves into a holding pattern such as Barclays for the last couple of months, shall eventually break free, moving upward quite rapidly.

If things intend for wrong, below 287 would ring alarm bells, risking promoting reversal down to an initial 273 with our secondary, if broken, at 257p and a very possible bouncy bottom.

Our world famed FTSE for FRIDAY (FTSE:UKX)

#FTSE #BrentCude  Currently the FTSE appears to be taking lessons from the President of Ukraine in the field of amateur dramatics but, when we review movements so far in 2025, the gloss is coming off the index’ performance faster than PR points from Mr Zelensky. For a few days, it looked like the UK’s professional fireworks industries were going to save the day but we’re no longer quite as confident, aside from the salient detail Qinetic appear destined to head for 580p or so, around 50p higher than current. More importantly, we just got around to watching Ford Vs Ferrari, a largely ignored movie from 2019 which turned out to be extremely entertaining, making the visuals of motor racing enjoyable without working hard to invest oneself in the back-story of every team and driver. In other words, a good movie if even slightly interested in racing though it was a strange experience rooting for Ford, a car company we now detest thanks to a C-Max.

 

As for the FTSE, it has now stumbled below the uptrend since 2024, a tiny little nudge which indicates some trouble may be ahead. Presently trading around 8682 points, the index needs now close a session above 8696 to get itself out of trouble.

For now, continued traffic below Thursdays low of 8645 risks triggering reversal to an initial 8610 with our secondary, if broken, at 8510 and hopefully a bounce. While visually this makes some sense, our arithmetic points at a bottoming potential around 8400 points. On the bright side, the tightest stop loss level can be assigned at 8696 points, fairly wide but otherwise acceptable.

 

Should gain potentials prove effective, above 8720 should prove interesting, allowing surprise recovery to an initial 8763 points with our secondary, if bettered, at an eventual 8844 points.

We are not impressed with the FTSE, hoping the kick off of F1 in a few days shall end the hiatus of weekends when we’re looking for some realistic action. Have a good weekend, ideally better than promised here for Argyll where snow is allegedly forecast.

Risk Warning & Notice to Investors

Buying, selling and investing in shares is not without risk. Market and company movement will affect your performance and you may get back less than you invest. Neither Trends and Targets Ltd, Shareprice, or Interactive Investor will be responsible for any losses that may be incurred as a result of following a trading idea.

Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings Plc (LSE:AML) , last on the grid?

#Gold #SP500  With arguably the best car design wizard Adrian Newey joining their team, on paper, it’s certain the team should face an interesting 2025 season. There is an obvious wrinkle with their two drivers, one of whom has questionable driving ability and the other boasting a dodgy past. Unfortunately, the stock market appears to be venting its opinion before a wheel has even turned, Aston Martin share price now resting in a place which threatens a visit to the scrap yard rather than any winners podium.

From our perspective, Aston Martin share price is in a dire position, its recent drop below Red on the chart exposing the share price to an extremely painful Big Picture potential. It’s now trading in a zone where it’s apparently being attracted by an ultimate bottom of just 7p. Now matter which calculation we throw at Astons price movements, this is the only consequence showing if the price wanders below 72p anytime soon. We’re far from hopeful their Formula 1 team shall provide any reason for positive emotion in the marketplace.

 

Of course, perhaps Aston Martin have a trick up their sleeves, giving the stock market an excuse to push the share price up above the Red uptrend since 2022. Such a movement would certainly prove significant, potentially provoking recovery to an initial 109 with our secondary, if bettered, at 131. This would effectively dump the share price in a zone where a longer term 158p becomes possible.

We’re not hopeful, anticipating yet another race season where Aston Martin become another “also ran” racing team, making up numbers to give the impression of fair racing.

Greggs Plc (LSE:GRG) getting a bit stale?

 #FTSE #Nasdaq One of the great mysteries of the stock market was exhibited this week, Greggs Plc boasting of sales passing a record £2bn but still experiencing a 10% share price drop  and price movement below an uptrend since 2020. In fairness, the market has spent since the start of 2025 expecting this drop, share price movements during the first two months of the year spreading themselves as this as the butter on a Greggs sandwich! To be honest, it’s an area this writer knows nothing about, never having been in a Greggs nor eaten their products, thanks to “enjoying” Coeliac disease, the gluten thing. But Greggs sales increase was nothing to do with the British public overwhelming their already hard working outlets but instead, due to the company opening more Greggs outlets.

This has certainly contributed to a perceived increase in sales but mainly due to their store count increasing by nearly 10% rather than existing branches – already suffering from higher wage costs and inflationary pressures – doing particularly well. As a result, we’re a little cynical over the companies immediate prospects.

From a charty perspective, we are already showing the share as being on a cycle to 1769p and perhaps a bottom. With the low of 1784p on Tuesday, in a world of unicorns and unending optimism, we’d be happy to suggest this drop was close enough to such a target as 1769p. Unfortunately, such an attitude would ignore the price already being parked below the read uptrend since 2020, and then gapped below our Red uptrend below. This behaviour gives a pretty thorough inclination to believe the market hasn’t yet finished grinding Greggs into the ground… We do not expect a real immediate bounce.

Now below 1769 looks capable of entering a cycle down to 1333 next with our secondary, if broken, at 1257p. The proximity of both target numbers tends imply a bounce should be anticipated, especially due to the target levels sitting comfortably above the lows of 2020. In addition, below 1257p would enter a twilight zone where an ultimate and unlikely drop target of 612p awaits.

 

If things were to attempt an emergency surgery to stop the rot, above 2100 would imply the potential of coming movements to 2512 with secondary, if bettered, at 2685p. This seems about as unlikely as expecting the current UK Prime Minister to apologise for his incompetence.

International Workplace Group Plc (LSE:IWG) back to work?

#Gold #SP500  Despite Mr Musk leading the initiative to getting everyone back into the office and visibly working under the lash of whip wielding “team leaders” etc, there’s another reality which isn’t being given sufficient credence and it relates to how banks treat assets. It used to be the case where banks would treat ownership of office blocks and towers as solid, safe, assets, the safest gauge by which they’d judge the net worth of clients. Times have changed dramatically since 2020 and now, office blocks and to a lesser degree, retail rental property, are now longer being treated as “money in the bank”.

IWG Plc, known for providing serviced offices under several trading names,  perhaps are hanging the reason for their existence on a shaky hook but their share price has recently, quite exuberantly, broke through the downtrend since 2020, showing some early signs for price recovery. We’re fairly comfortable with an initial scenario which suggests movement next above 202p should bring recovery to an initial 209p. This would make a lot  of visual sense, challenging the highs of 2024.

Our longer term secondary (or later that day!) calculates at 216p but our inclination is not to trust any rise until such time the share price actually closes above 209p.

An event such as this opens the door to significant Big Picture performance, calculating as placing the share price in a region where ongoing traffic to a future 286p works out as very possible, perhaps hinting at offices throughout the world packed full of happy folk returning to cubicles with artificial scent hiding the smell of freedom and a litany of problems logging into servers, thanks to IT departments overwhelmed with the concept of returning to business as usual. Amusingly, a chum already involved in such a scenario, recently moved house and a key component of his new property was the ability to emplace and cool a bank of servers. The last few years proved conclusively he functioned best, when controlling corporate systems from home, rather than the 3rd world portacabins assigned to IT. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that one of Scotlands leading restaurants is literally across the road, making his new house a perfect place for a chat over lunch…

 

If everything intends go wrong, this share price needs close below 166p to justify panic.

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. Hopefully, this will mean you no longer need to flip back through previous reports. HYPERLINKS DISABLED IN THIS VERSION

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.
