#Brent #DOW The decision to move the first May Monday holiday to a Friday, made before Covid-19 became a thing, has produced a trading week for the markets which felt strange. Essentially, in addition to utterly insane conditions, the #FTSE has suffered a week deserving of the term; ‘Demob Happy’. Thankfully, we managed to notice the looming Bank Holiday, shuffling our popular FTSE for FRIDAY report forward a day.

It’s probably worth noting this week has seen the UK index fall below the uptrend established, since the initial Covid-19 drop. We wonder if a further sharp reversal will occur, should the Financial Times updated mortality report gain attention. Discovering our country issued nearly 43,000 more death certificates than ‘normal’ during March and April provided a platform for a truly horrific set of numbers. It ensured the UK took the leaderboard rather convincingly for Europe, when the same counting method was applied. Surprisingly, Israel who didn’t hesitate to employ mobile phone tracing to track and trace the infected somehow managed to experience a drop in deaths! Norway and South Africa also experienced similar.

With a final nod to the FT’s addiction to death, across the 21 countries for which they collated mortality data, there were 182,000 more deaths than expected during the period surveyed. This number is 64% higher than the total being reported as “Covid-19” in the period!

 

We’re probably giving the impression you could dangle a bundle of numbers in front of us and we’d chase them like a puppy going after a leaf in the wind. Perhaps there’s some truth there.

 

As for the FTSE and its numbers, it looks like some reversal should be expected on Thursday. Weakness next below 5,839 looks capable of attempting a pretty tame sounding 5,821 points. If broken, secondary is at 5,796 points. Neither ambition points to extreme volatility on this, our last day of the week. We’d be remiss if we didn’t find something to be really gloomy about and it’s the calculation, should 5,796 break. Apparently 5,690 becomes viable, taking the FTSE into territory where there’s a risk of Covid-19 levels of panic volatility.

 

Visually, the FTSE needs only nudge above 5,910 to re-enter the land of sweetness and light, allowing movement to a near term 6,036 with secondary, if bettered, working out at 6,075 points.

 

Finally, remember 3 things. We are discussing the FTSE and not out of hours futures. You don’t need to have fun to drink. And enjoy the weekend.

#CAC40 #NasdaqThe subject of a few emails, Hemogenyx share price has certainly been to the races. We’ve some concern regarding recent reversals, pointing to recent share price rises for this specialist in Blood Cancers turning into a rather painful ‘Pump and Dump’ experience. In this Covid-19 era, some of the victims shall not be those who contract the virus.

At present, the share needs trade below 5.6p to provoke real panic as this risks triggering reversal to an initial 4.5p with secondary, if broken, down at a risking 0.75p, this being the point we cannot calculate below.

Presently trading around 7.4p, the share price needs exceed 10p to give early indications of hope, this apparently allowing recovery again to an initial 11.25p with secondary, if bettered, working out at a longer-term (or later that day!) return to the 15p level. Only if this ambition is bettered dare we mention the potential of 17p and beyond, further down the road.

#Gold #CAC40 Last reviewed at the start of the year, (link) this pairing has pretty much conformed to our reversal scenario, aside from the little dramatic detail of Covid-19 inspired reversal to 1.15, a drop which lasted longer than a political ‘Firm Commitment’. Oddly, our report last August admitted something quite dramatic for the pairing. We wrote;

“The immediate problem Sterling now faces is an expectation of a “bottom” on the current cycle at 1.1677. ”

It’s easy to wonder if we’re about to inhale an era of aggressive currency movements, countries trying to make themselves and their products “cheaper” to other nations in an effort to restart full trade (and tourism). In conversation today with someone who’d planned inflict the hell of Disney in Florida on their children, apparently traveling abroad is now off the agenda for at least the next year and she intends enjoy the ‘quiet roads and empty beaches’ (her words, not mine) of Cornwall, if allowed to travel during the school holidays.

 

Presently trading around 1.244, GBPUSD needs slip below Red, presently 1.20, to again cause trouble as we’re now looking at the prospect of coming reversal to an initial 1.152 with secondary, if (when) broken at 1.088. Normally in such a scenario, we’d expect a proper bounce at the 1.08 level, if achieved. Instead, we advise caution as a break below this level will tend to indicate a bottom, hopefully, at 1.059.

 

The other side of the coin examines the potentials, if Sterling somehow manages to strengthen against the US Dollar. In the event the pair moves above 1.277, we’re looking at recovery to an initial 1.297 with secondary, if bettered, up at 1.337. While there are plenty of visual suggestions hinting at a Glass Ceiling at the 1.337 level, by moving above the longer-term Blue downtrend, Sterling will find itself in a place where travel to 1.479 is allegedly possible.

#Germany #Brent The “Worlds Favourite Airline” lived up to its (once deserved) slogan, helping bring Covid-19 to the entire world. It’s difficult to avoid speculating on the future for the airline industry as many people will doubtless choose what they perceive as safer ways to travel. A snippet of news over the weekend, announcing Berkshire Hathaway (the Warren Buffet crowd) are divesting themselves of airline holdings suggests considerable nervousness regarding the long term prospects for airline share prices.

Equally, it’s doubtful the Cruise Ship industry shall experience an easy time, once the crisis starts to abate as we’ve all seen too many news clips of liners denied docking facilities due to outbreaks on board. Personally, a favourite form of long-distance travel (within Europe), adventurous rail journeys will also be avoided in the future. It shall be quite a while before the close proximity of people shall be entertained.

Are we to re-enter the Golden Age of Motoring, along with a sudden upswing in demand for Petrol & Diesel due to electric vehicles’ inability to cover long distances without equally long recharge times?

 

There can be little doubt everything has changed, unless a successful Covid-19 vaccine appears.

 

Regarding International Consolidated Airlines Group, owners of British Airways, the future looks a bit dodgy in the event Berkshire Hathaway proves correct. It’s worth remembering sometimes Mr Buffet gets things horribly wrong. If anyone remembers his foray into Tesco with an investment, perfectly timed at the wrong moment, Berkshire Hathaway can sometimes experience a bit of an “oops” moment. However… perhaps they read our article on British Airways last month (link here) or even our earlier one last September (link here)

 

For British Airways (not typing the full company name again) share price, the future looks more threatening than one of their short-haul breakfasts. Movement next below 192p looks very capable of an initial 139p with secondary, if broken, calculating at a hard landing of 98p. We cannot calculate below 98p, so hopefully, this level proves capable of producing a rebound. The bigger question, of course, is what happens if 98p does indeed make an appearance?

Since 1990, the share price has kept returning to around this level, suggesting a glass floor exists. As we cannot calculate below 98p, there is certainly hope for a rebound but we’d question whether the share shall yet again explore the heights above 600p. If our thoughts regarding “travel caution” prove correct, the best we would hope would be the price to oscillate between the 98p level and the Red uptrend.

 

Presently trading around 215p, we shall not be inclined to take any rise seriously unless some sort of miracle takes IAG above 297p. At present, this would be a sensible early indication of bottom being “in”. Who knows, perhaps they shall change the company name to something easier to write!

#Brent #Dow A day which started badly ended worse. Thankfully we’d a bit of a clue in the opening second as the #FTSE was spiked UP to 6135 points. Regular readers will be aware of our horror at opening second spikes but this one defied logic. Within a few minutes, the index was trading higher than the opening spike, so things should have been safe.

By 11am, some sort of miserable news hit the markets world-wide and painful reversals began, a series of movements that felt like no recovery would be possible. Needless to say, the FTSE was the world index performing worse, managing to close Thursday’s session 3.5% down and just below our early warning “here comes trouble” level of 5,910 points. Unsurprisingly, the real culprits were members of the Oil & Gas Sector, this nasty little segment of the market achieving a 10% reversal at one point, making the FTSE appear really foul.

Elsewhere, while plenty of negative travel ensued, Wall St for instance achieved a non-threatening low of 24,186 points. There’s a pretty solid risk, if Wall St trades below 24,180 we calculate possible reversal to 23,780 as possible but we’ve doubts. The US market didn’t feel like it wanted to fall further, closing the day just 1.17% down.

 

If we dwell on the dangers, below 5,888 looks capable of reversal to 5,823 points initially with secondary, if broken, calculating at 5,719 points. If triggered, the tightest stop looks like 5,940 points.

Alternately, it appears strength exceeding 5,940 should prove capable of an initial 6,004 points with secondary, if bettered, at 6,078 points.

 

Have a good weekend.

#DAX #Nasdaq Our report for Monday of this week (link) provided some pretty sceptical upward potentials for the UK index, all from a Big Picture perspective. We truly did not expect them to trigger but the market closed at 6,115, safely above our initial target of 6,098 points.

We’re now supposed to gush with similar enthusiasm employed by the media, when writing about Boris’s new baby. Certainly, when reviewing the market, it’s difficult not to exhibit enthusiasm for the immediate future. The market has made a movement which shall prove difficult to reverse, unless some bad news is waiting in the wings. Who knows, we’re nearly at May and surely the world is planning another flavour of crisis to hit!

The immediate situation is truly surprising as we’re able to calculate movement now above 6,130 should attempt an initial 6,285 points. Despite some hesitation looking possible at such a level, we’re no choice but to regard 6,501 points as presenting a strong future attraction. Further up the food chain, we can even calculate a distant (and dangerous) potential of 6,765 points eventually.

We need to explain why such a level is dangerous.

Visually, it meets (ish) the point at which the UK index broke the Red uptrend from 2016. Should the current recovery prove to be a “gotcha” game, this will represent an ideal point sometime in the future for another reversal cycle to establish itself. It’s worth remembering the FTSE needs regain Red on the chart to utterly scrub our vile drop potentials and at present, we’re unable to provide a solid argument favouring such a level of recovery. Instead, if it were a share, we’d be worrying about a price threatening a dead cat bounce.

 

As usual, we’ve given a positive argument, well seasoned with scepticism. If things intend to go wrong again, the earliest warning signal presently looks like movement now below 5,910 points. Such a reversal risks triggering reversal to 5,700 and below.

 

On a brighter note, buoyant due to planting potatoes, Wednesday was spent planting carrots! This lockdown better end soon, lest plans start being made to build a whisky refinery next! (It’s called a Still)

#SP500 #Japan With results due after the close on Wednesday, #eBay appears worth a glance. The share price has already exceeded Februarys high, the point at which it all went wrong, and now is poised for further growth. This obviously prompts us to write about potatoes!

Trusted to complete an “On-Line” shopping exercise, potatoes were ordered because Chips come from potatoes. It transpires they come from a bag of frozen “Over Chips” and, aside from occasional roast potatoes, we never actually eat the things. It was interesting, ‘cos greater attention to detail was taken while spending time on eBay ordering various electrical and electronic items.

The frequent term, “Ships from China” could easily have read, “Feeling Lucky, Punk?” Additionally, great care was taken, ensuring suppliers were UK based and promised postal times in keeping with UK companies. It can be quite easy to be caught out on eBay, completing an order only to discover a week later the delivery schedule allows for a month, rather than just a few days. Invariably the item shall be winging its way from China, despite the supplier claiming to be based in London.

 

Despite now being personally ‘China-Goods-Phobic’, a lot of online shopping is taking place and it’s very possible peoples habits will complete the change which began with the slow death of the High St. Certainly for the immediate future, this is likely to promote a positive perception of the giants like Amazon and eBay with an invariable effect on their share prices. Already, Amazon is looking incredibly positive for the longer term with eBay not far behind.

We shall be interested if eBay (presently around 39 dollars) next trades above 41.8 dollars as this looks capable of pushing the share price up to an initial 44.7 dollars. If exceeded, secondary calculates at 51 dollars and a new all-time high. If chasing a Long CFD position, it’s likely a pretty tight stop around the 39 dollar mark shall suffice.

For it all to go horribly wrong for eBay, the share needs reverse below Red on the chart, currently at 30 dollars. Visually, this is unlikely.

 

To return, briefly, to the important subject of potatoes, the bag lurked for 6 weeks in the pantry. Worse, the contents started to show some shoots of growth. We’re going to need to learn to like potatoes as they were planted today, hopefully, to be harvested around September! It also transpires planting a potato crop is hard physical work and cannot be recommended.
