Lloyds Bank for 16/11/2020

#BrentCrude #Nasdaq Midway through November, America almost has a new President, Covid-19 is nearly cured, the UK PM is being locked away for a few weeks, and ‘I’m A Celebrity’ is back on TV! Could we be approaching the end of 2020 with a plethora of positive vibes forcing itself upon us. Our previous glance at Lloyds (link) certainly proved correct with our secondary target level being exceeded.

As a result, we’re using this weeks visit to a retail bank as a “what if” scenario, as in “what if” the good news keeps coming, ideally with “I’m A Nonentity” being cancelled. In this particular household, the theme music is sufficient to remind the dogs need walked immediately, the car needs washed, or even can the grass be cut in darkness while it’s raining, while wishing the mower was electric. As can be guessed, the half of the household clutching the TV box remote believes the rubbish from a Welsh castle is essential viewing.

 

Kidding aside, Lloyds Banking Group are very nearly at the point of justifying some real optimism for the longer term. The immediate situation suggests ongoing travel beyond 35.09p should head up to 38p and at this level, life starts to become very interesting. The share price will require closure above 38p to confirm 2020’s visual Glass Ceiling has broken, allowing further recovery in the direction of a future 50p with secondary, if bettered, being the subject of considerable debate in-house.

If we go by software criteria alone, the secondary should be presented as 92p. This is due the share price finally closing above Blue on the chart, a downtrend dating back to 2007. In normal times, we tend expect rates of recovery acceleration to be influenced by the levels at which such a downtrend commenced. In the case of Lloyds, the implication is quite suspect above 6 quid. Obviously, times are not normal and if we opt to balance expectations with share price behaviour during 2020, our secondary target level calculates at a sane looking 61p.

The surprising visual detail from such a secondary ambition is 61p is virtually a pivot level, a share price above and below the bank has been cavorting for the last ten years. As a result, an ambition of 61p makes a lot of sense and should such miracle recovery appear, common sense alone demands we revisit our numbers to project where a proper long term target may reside. For the sake of providing a ‘clickbait’ teaser, it’s already possible to calculate some amazing potentials with 156p allegedly viable in the distance, along with proof Santa Claus is real.

A word of warning. Lloyds needs only sink below 30p to turn this Big Picture scenario into mush as a future retreat below the Blue trend line would be a really bad thing.

FTSE for FRIDAY & Pfizer again 13/11/2020

#FTSE #Gold Every time it feels like the Covid-19 days are easing, something new comes along and bites hard. Today, a routine visit to the hospital went pretty badly wrong, thanks to a bad head cold. As someone already with a compromised immune system, considerable effort has been made this year to remain “clean” but at the hospital reception desk, everyone became quite animated when I admitted I’d coughed a few times.

Suddenly in an isolation room, a nurse attached plumbing pipework to my arm to take bloods. This device, known as a cannula, always provokes a sinking feeling as it’s clear more than one tube of blood is intended in the hours ahead. In fact, it’s always a surprise old Vampire movies didn’t feature this gadget as it provides easy, on demand, blood. The hospital staff didn’t mess around with the potential risk presented, refusing to relax until results came back from the lab, my chest stethoscoped, and a chest X-ray just for good measure. My explanation of the current chemotherapy regime tending to exaggerate everything was certainly heeded but ignored, the nurses preferring a sensible ‘better safe than sorry’ approach.

 

Unsurprisingly, this is all rather pertinent to the FTSE! Nerves remain present in the world.

The first 9 sessions of this month proved remarkably positive with only Thursday 12th showing some (very slight) hesitation. But it’s easy to fear things suddenly going horribly wrong, should the pandemic come around to bite again. An worrying feature remains Pfizer share price, starting this week with some extremely strong movements. Unfortunately, aside from the opening movement on Monday, the share price has declined daily, now looking like it intends to bottom at 35 dollars. Somehow or other, we’d hoped a company capable of issuing “We’ve Saved The World” news would perform with greater aplomb than displayed?

FTSE for FRIDAY. We’re inclined to take this lack of lustre as a warning, perhaps the FTSE itself risks losing some of its recent shine. But before we dive into a bucket of misery, there’s an important detail worthy of consideration. The FTSE requires to slip below 5890 points to justify “headless chicken” mode. At present, nothing calculates with this risk.

Near term, we shall be mildly concerned if the UK market meanders below 6261 points as this calculates with a reversal potential of 6216 points initially. If broken, our secondary ‘longer term’ number works out at 6071 points and hopefully a bounce. Unfortunately, if this scenario triggers, the tightest stop level is quite absurd at 6350 points.

More likely, if feels like movement anytime soon above 6404 points should provoke FTSE growth toward 6506 points initially with secondary, if exceeded, calculating at 6560 points. Visually we’d anticipate some hesitation around the 6500 level.

Have a good weekend and remember, you can cover a discrete cough with a really loud fart. How the tables have turned on society…

Chariot Oil & Gas for 12/11/2020

#Dow #SP500 It has been a few years since we glanced at Chariot and it took an email to remind us they still exist. If we opt to judge them by their website, extremely positive views emerge thanks to their work in Brazil, Morocco, and Namibia. This flood of strong future sentiment certainly made us question why the share spent a couple of years below the 5p level!

However, all change for the future, apparently.

Chariot, presently trading around the 10p level, are showing some fairly reasonable potentials. Near term, we shall be interested if the share trades above just 12.5p. Such an insignificant motion risks triggering further recovery toward an initial 15p. In the event of it trading beyond the 15p level, we’d hope either positive news or positive market conditions shall promote further recovery toward 20p. While accomplishing a feat such as this matches the highs of 2018, it will be important to remember the price is enjoying a break above the downtrend since 2013.

This sort of Big Picture thing can often promote strong growth for the longer term, especially as closure above the 20p level illuminates an absurd sounding potential at 42p somewhere down the line. For now, we suspect the 15p level shall prove capable of some hesitation.

 

Finally, it’s a short sharp report as our recent focus on the American markets needs our brains to switch up a gear. An early sign of this came today, watching the behaviour between our two unwanted cats and our two Golden Retrievers. The penny finally dropped; dogs have evolved to become a perfect companion for man. Cats think man has evolved to become the perfect companion for a cat. (One of the cats knocked a coffee over a keyboard without a hint of guilt. Dogs on the other hand, understand crime and guilt.)

We shall return to a USA focus, if the need arises.

The Trump 30 Index for 11/11/2020

#FTSE #Nasdaq Almost as a fun thing, we’ve been keeping a weather eye on the fabled Trump 30 Index. This invention took a basket of large US listed shares expected to flourish if Mr Trump retained the presidency. The theory was, those favouring a Trump win could effectively trade 30 US equities by taking a short or long position.

Something quite odd has occurred this week.

The basket of Trump 30 Equities started to flourish, despite the US media “calling” the election for Mr Biden. (Surely we are not the only folk aghast at the winner of a US election traditionally being “called” by the Press Association, rather than a proper electoral body.) The sudden spring like behaviour of the Trump 30 certainly gives pause for thought, making us wonder if recounts and legal challenges shall turn last weeks apparent result on its head.

We considered the equally strange Biden 30 Index, discovering Mr Bidens basket of 30 shares appears to have topped, looking capable of some immediate reversals. America is strange…

 

At present, the Trump 30 is trading around 936, only needing above 947 to suggest coming growth to 970 and a new high since the concept started last July. And should 970 be exceeded, our secondary calculates up at 1,000 points, presumably meaning Mr Trump is expected to be the bloke on the balcony come inauguration next January. For those already involved in this form of trading, it already looks to be the case 1,000 points is the market intention, needing below 853 points to cancel the concept.

Common sense would suggest the Trump 30 is only blooming, due to the Covid-19 vaccine story but unfortunately, the chart shows the index started to break clear of the downtrend on Friday – this before the Covid-19/Pfizer headlines appeared. Perhaps we’re being whimsical, unable to understand the American way of doing things. Neither candidate inspired anything greater than an urgent need to change the channel on TV.

Pfizer Inc (Nasdaq:PFE) for 10/11/2020

#Gold #Dow When we ran our analysis (link) on Pfizer 3 weeks ago, we were optimistic but didn’t appreciate we were reviewing a company capable of provoking a Viagra moment (one of their other products!) on the worlds stock markets. Oddly, the companies own share price exhibited less recovery enthusiasm than airlines, banks, and the oilers. In addition, a few facets of price movements amongst listing on the Nasdaq concern us a little.

We were told, at the onset of the pandemic, life has changed and possibly forever. In the months since, changes in shopping habits, work practice, and of course travel, tended to shape which sectors of the market would flourish, along with those who faced a hammering. In the hours since the Pfizer announcement (curiously delayed until after the US election) we notice companies like UPS, Fedex, Zoom, online payment company PayPal, JD.com, even eBay, are suffering share price reversals. It begs the question, will people revert to “proper” shopping if the world returns to normal?

Our suspicion is the switch to new shopping habits is here to stay, the convenience of online buying doubtless welcomed by many who were forced into it. Aside, of course, from the issue of getting rid of cardboard boxes! Cardboard is brilliant when building a bonfire to dispose of autumn leaves.

 

We wonder if the lack of flamboyance with Pfizer shall be reflected in some wider market turbulence in the weeks ahead, as doubt establishes whether various national drug approval bodies will deem Pfizers product “safe” for distribution. If this is the case, will the company share price be equally turbulent?

For the immediate future, we’re fairly happy where Pfizer closed the session on 9th November. BY just 0.1 dollars, it achieved a higher high in the period since March’s Covid-19 drop. As a result, ongoing traffic above $40 looks capable of reaching an initial $45 with secondary, if bettered, at a longer term (or later that day) $53US.

Visually, closure above the $45 mark looks critical for the longer term, capable of landing the share price in a zone with a distant sounding potential at $65. If it all intends go wrong, below the 30 dollar mark shall provide sufficient excuse for panic.

Barclays for 9/11/2020

#Brent #Dax A local newspaper here in Scotland put the entire US election into perspective. Their headline “Local Ayrshire Golf Club owner loses US presidential election bid” placed the US shambles in proper perspective. However, similar to property sales, we shall only be convinced of the result when we witness who’s waving from the balcony on January 20th next. In fact, to stick to a vaguely Scottish theme, even then it may not be over.

There are a few unpleasant similarities with the last Scottish independence vote and the ongoing US election. A tight election result along with an overwhelmingly negative media, similar to Scotland’s tight referendum result, is unlikely to calm things down in North America. Additionally, with Scotland showing some extremely dodgy “postal vote” numbers from the referendum, it was easy to understand why Mr Trump was quite firm in his distrust of this method of voting. Amusingly, the most suspicious “postal vote” count came from Argyll in Scotland, birthplace of the US presidents mother, where postal returns were almost unanimous against Scottish independence with an almost impossible turnout of 96%, something which suggests no-one had died or moved house in the year since the electoral register was compiled!

To cut a long story short, just as the Scottish independence issue was unresolved with a tight vote, equally with feel the occupancy of the big house in America will generate considerable debate.

 

Aside from obvious entertainment value, our greater concern is more important as the markets shall prefer stability and at present we’re not comfortable we’re seeing any signs among normal key shares.

 

Barclays Plc are a case in point. Presently trading around 110p, the price needs a visual miracle above 135p to give early suggestions things are about to improve. Such a trigger is liable to be quite important, “risking” provoking a recovery cycle to an initial 192p. Only with closure above such a level shall drooling be approved, this strongly hinting longer term miracle recovery toward 290p will become possible.

If things intend go pear shaped, the share price requires weakness below 92p to justify a raised eyebrow. This calculates with the potential of coming reversals to an initial 82p with secondary, if broken, at a bottom (hopefully) of a less likely 68p eventually.

The DOW & FTSE for FRIDAY 6/11/2020

#FTSE #WallSt As the entertainment from North America continues, we’re about ready to wind up our USA features in this headline section. Unless, of course, the shambles continues over the weekend and the country accidentally elects Kermit the Frog as president instead! Certainly, a Muppet as president would surely exhibit better communication skills than many in the media as they’ve stumbled through coverage of the election. Surely questions must be asked of those who predicted civil war should “the wrong” candidate win the vote?

An abiding memory from April came from media coverage of Covid-19 in New York, camera’s lovingly caressing images of a mass grave as unclaimed bodies from morgues were interred during the panic. The impression given was of a country unable to cope with events but the reality made a bit more sense. This event occurs fairly frequently in New York and prisoners from nearby Rikers Island jail even have a set pay rate established to bury unclaimed bodies. Similarly, in the UK, we’d to witness TV images of disasters unfolding in Spain and Italy while friends in these countries reacted with shock, when asked about the stories. They were pretty sure they’d know about convoys of military trucks carrying coffins.

The Dow Jones completed Thursday, looking a bit underwhelmed by all the scare stories. Instead, Wall St looks poised for movement to new all time highs and this, perhaps, should be the real shock given the much publicised 2nd Wave of the pandemic. As someone without an effective immune system, this is obviously a worry but realistically, maintaining levels of paranoia has been relatively easy, thanks to living in the countryside of Scotland where people scarcity is the norm.

For Wall St, movement next above 28,500 points looks capable of driving market growth to an initial 29,287 points. This comes very close to challenging the previous all time market high in February this year and despite the visuals suggesting a potential glass ceiling, we’re not convinced. Moves above 29,287 should prove capable of attaining 30,552 points eventually, yet another all time high and a remarkable feat for such a tragic year as 2020. A small fly in the ointment is presented by the Red line on the chart. The index required to CLOSE the session on 5th November above 28,427 points. Despite a day high above this level, the market closed at 28,390 points and slightly below the line.

Perhaps some doubt remains as to which Muppet the US intends elect…

FTSE for FRIDAY (FTSE:UKX)  Quite remarkably, the FTSE has exhibited similar behaviour to The Dow Jones in respecting its Red uptrend since the Covid-19 drop in March. There are even very early signs a true market rally is nearly upon us, the logic behind which totally defeats. The immediate situation is fairly impressive.

Movement next above 5934 points should prove capable of lifting the market to an initial 5970 points. If exceeded, our “longer term” secondary (aka maybe later that day) calculates at 6088 points. The secondary is pretty important, placing the UK index in a zone where a further 100 point lift to 6188 becomes expected. But critically, the market absolutely must close a session above 6088 to permit untrammelled optimism for the future. While visually this argument may not make sense, our software is showing 6088 as a “red flag” level which must be beaten.

If things intend go horribly wrong, the FTSE needs reverse below 5825 to give the first sign of trouble ahead, allowing reversal to commence to an initial 5777 points. If broken, our secondary calculates down at 5680 points.
