#Gold #S&P500There’s a chart signal which is generally more reliable than a Weather Forecast or a BBC News report and currently, M&S are displaying it quite explicitly. In fact, we could even say; “This isn’t just a Chart Signal, it’s a Marks & Spencer Chart Signal” with a reasonable hope our projected outcome shall prove to be correct. Of course, there’s always a fly and always some ointment but visually, this one looks pretty amazing.

 

A few pundits have been advocating M&S as a Strong Buy, thus provoking a few emails in our direction for an opinion. Surprisingly, we ALMOST agree with them but the set of squiggles which comprise the chart confirm something we often bang on about. The level of a Trend Break is almost always really important.

In the case of M&S, the chart extract below shows a nice little Green line, representing the price level above which we require the share to close, potentially presenting a scenario where some real price growth can be anticipated.

Essentially, in a textbook example of our thoughts, share price closure above 360p should make movement to an initial 375p almost certain. Our secondary, if exceeded, calculates at a future 393p. This sort of near 10% price recovery would emplace the share price on a path to a long term 428p.

But of course, there’s an issue. This is the Stock Market and it’s rare for something as “drop dead obvious” as this to appear. Thus, we should suspect a trap for traders is looming, aside from the absurd (but real) detail of “that’s what they’d want us to think!”

To be blunt, we do anticipate M&S enjoying an upward surge and given share price movements since July, it looks pretty confident. Their share price needs close below 330p before the need to buy; “these are not just any running shoes, these are Marks & Spencer running shoes…”

#FTSE #Nasdaq   Every now and then, it appears sanity re-enters the world and absently opening a bottle of Lime juice provided great pause for thought. There was no longer a ridiculous plastic tie, attaching the lid to the base! Extracting a bottle of cola from the cupboard, once again the hated plastic tie was no longer in evidence. Hopefully this initiative shall extend beyond the particular manufacturer and once again free the soft drink industry to continue polluting the worlds oceans with absolutely nothing new!

It’s funny, our personal hobby of making wine has taught several lessons. Firstly, bottle the stuff is a pain, fitting corks is an expensive nuisance, and shrink wrapping the top and bottle neck a time consuming exercise in proving how impatient the holder of a hairdryer can be. To be completely honest, the vast majority of our wine production is given away to friends, especially as we’ve “cracked” Rioja and Chardonnay. Obviously, these chums give back the empty bottles, these things being placed on an outdoors “wine rack” behind the shed, where we expect the weather to remove the sticker from the bottle. After it’s cleaned by nature, it only needs sterilised before re-use (aka dumped in a 25 litre tub for 20 mns) then filled again. All things considered, the process of meeting expectations has become tiresome.

We tried using 2 litre plastic soft drink bottles but actually had complaints from our friends, saying it cheapened the product and made them feel they could consume an entire bottle in a single evening, forgetting it was real alcohol until a sharp reminder when they awoke late the following morning (or afternoon) . Apparently bottles provide a further method for society to moderate their greed. We’re about to toss a problem at them all.

It turns out we can buy “wine bags”, the containers used within Wine Boxes, and they are not expensive. The current run of Merlot is going to be bagged in 3 litre containers which will give a long life to the wine. There’s no need for the juice to be consumed within days of it being opened, the bag not needing to suck in air to allow wine to be poured. Instead, the bag deflates, keeping the fresh wine quaffable. Always assuming the stuff is deemed okay, when it’s tasted in a few days, we’re going for a “bottling” of 7 wine bags and just 5 bottles being labelled and sealed.

However, it must be admitted, few things are nicer than standing in front of a big wine rack, pondering the correct choice for that evenings dinner and knowing the quality of each bottle can be assured. Aside from that 2024 Shiraz which remains dodgy, even after 11 months…

 

So, if a sign of a return to sanity can be attributed to how bottle tops are fitted, what the heck are we to think of the Middle East? We happily wrote about an oil extraction company in Scotland who it turns out are owned by an Israeli based company, Delek. As a result, we became curious as to how the Israel markets themselves are doing, despite Israel joining Russia on the worlds naughty step. It was actually fairly difficult to find data relating to Israel, many of the big providers opting to dodge listing Tel Aviv. It transpired TradingView, a company we often rely on for data, were the only “biggie” giving reliable data and their chart is below.

We’ve an interest in the Middle East shambles, one which obviously risks bias in our commentary, as a family member was raising her 6 children in Tel Aviv. For some reason, she’s got some strong views on what’s happened to her part of the world! For safety sake, the family has now opted to move to Jerusalem but her views on the conflict remain strong, a resolution that no matter what, Israel shall remain. Padding her family story out a bit, after the events of 2023, they opted to move from Manhattan, NY, to Israel to express solidarity rather than feel they were refugees from the country. The question must be asked, how many people would return to defend the UK, if people in Wales decided to attack the rest of the country?

 

The Tel Aviv index has experienced a pretty steady expression of confidence since the start of 2024, moving from around 1600 points to a current 3054 points, nearly double their starting point. Comparing this to the UK for the same period, we’re looking at movement from 7700 points to a current 9200 points, a pretty useless movement, basically reflecting inflation along with the country currency strength against the US dollar. The real lack of UK economic growth has been given by the UK Office of National Statistics, confirming a lack of confidence in the country. While Israel, despite a constant war footing and terrorism acts, has managed to enjoy a stock market and economy which has virtually doubled.

As for Tel Aviv, it now looks like some reversals are coming, the index needing to rise above just 3065 to cancel the immediate prospect of trouble. Instead, it’s now the case below 3024 points risks reversals to an initial 2854 points with our secondary, if broken, at 2804 points and hopefully a bounce.

However… we’ve a suspicion the current slight reversal shall prove to be a fake as above 3065 points should allow Tel Aviv to move to an initial 3,266 points with our secondary, if bettered, at 3,459 points. Visually, the implication of gains looks fairly straightforward and worth keeping an eye on. However, due to most data and trading organisations pretending Israel and Russia don’t exist, it’s likely few people will be able to follow such a path.

#Gold #Stoxx50  Named after a fabulous little island off Greece, owned by Dr Who’s arch enemy (Daleks – okay Delek), and extracting oil in Scotlands North Sea, Ithaca enjoy a share price which is starting to exhibit some interesting potentials. An obvious little fly in the ointment is the owner of Ithaca, Delek, is an Israeli company and thus potentially the subject of political hysteria at the drop of the wrong spanner. However, some hope is visually possible, thanks to the Blue downtrend since 2022. This particular facet is also supported by the immediate Red uptrend since 2024.

With their recently announced dividend at nearly 7.5p per share, due to be paid on September 26th, we suspect the share price shall be “forced” to endure some gains to ensure it steers clear of 180p post dividend, a price level below which it really cannot be permitted to close. If our speculation is correct, near term above 191p should prove capable of triggering a lift to an initial 195p with our secondary, if bettered, at 204p. Above such a level, we shall be forced to revisit the numbers as the threat of a longer term 274p feels unlikely in anything approaching a single bound.

Below 177p (or closure below 180p) looks fairly problematic, capable of triggering a reversal cycle to an initial 165p and hopefully a bounce. But if broken, our secondary calculates down at an eventual ridiculous looking 117p. Or it would be ridiculous, if this were not the share price level which started this year!

 

Our presumption for the moment is to anticipate some gains for Ithaca as the market shall probably not wish the forthcoming share price dividend reduction to allow the price below 180p.

*** End of “Updated Today” comments on shares

#Brent #WallSt   It still feels strange projecting a positive outlook at UK retail banks but it’s hard to ignore their share prices, collectively started recovery from the point at which the UK central bank, The Bank of England, decided to lessen harm to the country be reducing interest rates. We’ve often argued it has been too little, too late, especially as the UK now suffers with an interest rate twice that of Europe. However, with a further grudging cut expected this Thursday, it looks like the retail banks are prepping themselves for another lurch upward, despite the harmful UK economic news from Friday showing zero growth.

Maybe the surge of somewhere between 100 thousand and 2 million far right, rabid capitalists (initial police reports, based on inbound traffic volumes to London, speculated on nearly 3 million people. This was reduced to a more politically acceptable numbers as Saturday commenced…  Perhaps the protests on the streets of London shall be regarded as an excuse promote market reversals but, we’re hopeful for a converse stance, especially as the media exposed themselves as actively avoiding accuracy in reporting. We suspect the UK government shall now panic to a degree, demanding the central bank take action to make life more tolerable for business, along with all the far right activists who have mortgages!

 

There are a couple of important numbers which should prove relevant to Barclays. Firstly, above 382p should next trigger movement to 389p and some potential hesitation. However, should such a target be exceeded, we anticipate 401p now making an appearance in coming weeks. We certainly anticipate some dramatics at the 401p level, especially as closure above such a point exposes the share price to a long term attraction from a theoretical 506p. To be fair, we suspect the 4 quid level shall become a barrier in the weeks ahead.

If things intend go wrong, this share price needs close below Red on the chart, currently 365p. This would be a bit dodgy, allowing weakness down to an initial 348 with our secondary, if broken, at 338p. The proximity of these target levels tends suggest an imminent excuse for a bounce of some sort, essentially part of an effort to slow down the share price rise.

 

To finish, we’ve decided to acknowledge another method which provides sensible expectation of the weather ahead, here in our bit of Argyll. We’ve a pier outside the house, used by the ferry company to overnight a ferry while it’s refuelled and the bilge pumps given a chance to stretch their legs. But some nights, like tonight, there are two ferries tied up alongside each other. We’re inclined to take this as a sign the weather is expected to deteriorate out in the estuary, the ferry company not wanting their little ships swept away. And additional alarm was provided by the twinkling lights of a 3rd ferry now moored across in the local marina. In other words, it looks like we’ve a windy week ahead, probably with further levels of insane rain.

#FreeFutures!  The price of crude oil has been frustrating us this year. We always harp on about the important detail it’s impossible to apply timeframes to the marketplace but this is getting frustrating, every time weakness looking like it is settling into place, the world discovering an excuse to derail any fall. Surely this must become more difficult as it’s unlikely the Greta Thunberg flotilla shall offer sufficient excuse to affect oil price movements, regardless of how many artificial stories they sell to the media.

This may turn around to bite us but we’re now showing a potential 55 dollars as a bottom, the product needing an excuse to move above 75 dollars to escape the path and destroy our scribbled notes on a napkin… More likely, it feels like below 65 dollars should next trigger weakness to an initial $64 with our secondary, if (when) broken at 61.8 and a probably short lived bounce. But overall, should 61.8 eventually break, a visit to 55 dollars looks probable.

 

With our FTSE for FRIDAY, it’s the same as above, only different! We’ve a strong argument favouring movement above 9.800 points, the only fly in the ointment being the FTSE has resolutely refused to co-operate with our calculations. This week there has been some early signs of proper steps in the correct direction but realistically, we demand above 9358 points to make things inevitable.

From a near term perspective, there is now some real hope as above 9298 points has the potential of triggering further FTSE movement toward an initial 9342 points. Our secondary, considerably less likely in the near term, calculates at 9494 points. While we’re a little dubious about this as an immediate target, such an influence however perhaps capable of moving things above our 9358 point trigger for the longer term where our future 9873 point target awaits, gleefully rubbing its hands.

But similar to Brents failure to head down, the FTSE has thus far failed to move up solidly but we’re not giving up hope.

If things intend go wrong, below 9150 points looks like a sensible point capable of triggering reversal to an initial 9027 points with our secondary, if broken, an unlikely looking 8919 points.

Have a good weekend, despite the lack of a Grand Prix for entertainment. Here in Argyll, it looks like it’s time to start building an Ark but then again, it’s maybe just winter.

#Gold #Nasdaq The UK AIM market has essentially been on holiday since the start of June! With everything going on in the world, it was something of a surprise to note the AIM index spent over three months moving by just 12 points above and below a midpoint of around 768 points. While this is obviously very frustrating, along being questionable behaviour, there is one significant detail we can mention. In the event the AIM market staggers above 783 points, we shall deem it as breaking free from the current malaise,  ideally heading to an initial 838 points with our secondary, if beaten, at 883 points and some probable hesitation. We feel this prediction is probably worth printing out and sticking on the wall as it should highlight a period where members of the AIM market enjoy some much deserved movements. The AIM would need slink below 688 to utterly crush our hopes.

 

Wishbone Gold Plc are perhaps one of the AIM constituents trapped in the current sludge of share price action feeling quite restricted. This, despite the company being named after a pretty good soft rock band! (Wishbone Ash) However, their share price position currently stinks a little bit as movement below 1.17p risks promoting further reversal to an initial 0.90p with our secondary, if broken, at 0.51. Even though reversal looks fairly inevitable, we’d hope for a real bounce around the 0.9p level rather than exhibit proper weakness to our secondary target.

Surprisingly, if the share price manages above 1.63p anytime soon, this would certainly tick the first box to allow the share price to move positively, giving an initial target level at a very useful 2.68p. We’ve considerable doubts about our longer term secondary at 4.6p sometime in the future. It is certainly a puzzle how their share price has (so far) failed to benefit from the change in the price of Gold, despite its current sojourn around 3,600 dollars, a price level which has ensured sobriety tests have been needed in Nome, Alaska, an area where Gold divers literally have never had it so good. One of the miners, owning a diving and dredging vessel, has even opted to abandon her very profitable YouTube channel to focus entirely on maximising her “take” from the floor of the Bering Sea.

*** End of “Updated Today” comments on shares

#FTSE #Japan As always, September is bringing some strange events here in Argyll. The most surprising one has been the current plague of Red Squirrel, it being virtually impossible to go anywhere without one of the things bouncing across the path or road in front of you. The funny thing, this year it seems black bushy tails are in fashion with the argumentative little monsters. Another unusual event has been the reverse frog stampede. Usually, around March, the amphibians cross the road in their thousands at night, returning to their favourite pools on the mountain. But it’s rare when we see the hatched little frogs making their way back to the river, making it easy to mistake a tiny little 2cm frog from a small leaf blowing on the road. And finally, there’s the most annoying issue, thanks to buying a bag of Nectarines which included a mouldy one. Our fruit bowl turned into Fruit Fly central, the little sods remaining despite the contents of the bowl being bagged and binned. Within a day, it became painfully obvious the fruit flies had decided they’d found a good home, so it was time for YouTube videos.

Needless to say, as with many issues, the answer lay with Apple Cider Vinegar. In this instance, it was mixed with water and a drop of fairy liquid added, fruit flies finding the liquid a wonderful method of drowning themselves. We’ve never had such a fly infestation before, becoming instantly paranoid about food cleanliness and bins being sealed. It was only when my wife was chatting at work did she discover there’s a fruit fly epidemic here in Argyll, doubtless due to surprisingly warm weather and discrete battles being fought everywhere! It seems we can talk about our Red Squirrel invasion, boast about our tiny Frog migration, but keep quiet at the horror of tiny little flies being everywhere…

Unfortunately, unable to dovetail this into a lesson about share prices and Beazley Plc, the best we can do is moan about a lack of insurance to cover sodding fruit flies being everywhere. And wonder aloud what sort of winter is coming, due to wildlife behaving differently. The squirrel clearly have a plan, the frogs are jumping ship, making it easy to suspect we’ve a “bad ‘un” ahead. Thankfully, we’ve now got at least a years supply of cut firewood which hopefully will not be needed. Oil fired heat, on demand, is a nicer way to handle cold mornings, rather than the chore of lighting the wood burner.

 

When we reviewed Beazley Plc just a couple of months ago, we used our “Cover Your A**” final paragraph to give some potentials if the share price dropped. Guess what?

The drop triggered, the share price exactly hitting our drop target at 762p. Will it bounce?

.

 

Visually, the immediate situation with Beazely Plc share price is fairly encouraging, though – perhaps oddly – we wish it hadn’t actually hit our drop target exactly as we’re generally happier if a price bounces before a target. Such a demonstration implies some strength but in this instance, there’s a problem.

Apparently, above 800p should now bring movement to an initial 832p with our secondary, if beaten, an eventual 902p. This sort of projection, while sounding impressive, has a major problem as the share price needs above 918p to signify happy days ahead. In such an instance, we shall feel able to discuss a long term target at 1064p but unless the market starts gapping the share price upward at the open, this seems a naive ambition.

Should things intend go wrong, below 762 would now be problematic as it allows weakness to an initial 722p with our secondary, if broken, an eventual bottom of 637p, a target level we’d hope the share actually bounces before.

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.
