#FTSE #SP500  We always thought it a little odd one of only two publicly listed shipbrokers on the LSE chose to name themselves after a pretty bleak location in Scotland, one placed just about as far from the sea as possible to get in the country. Braemar itself, located in the visually boring, windswept, east side of the country, has only one real attraction, the nearby ski area of Glenshee. Once, shortly after returning from Colorado, the decision was made to head to Glenshee for a day skiing and we were lucky. It was stunning day, plenty of snow, and memorable sunshine, the sort of thing which only happens once every 100 years or so. Chatting to one of the ski lift operators and mentioning we’d just returned from Colorado, it transpired he was American and agreed Glenshee equalled anything available in the US. But unfortunately, only once a century or so!

Another time, we visited, having made the stupid mistake of volunteering to escort a bunch of children from a local church youth club. Between checking the weather and leaving, the weather had changed and we arrived in a blizzard. Someone had the bright idea of heading to nearby Braemar as there would surely be cafes etc to keep the kids entertained, while we hoped the snow storm would move on. Thankfully, there were lots of places, all closed, as back then, Braemar appeared to shut up shop once summer was over. To make matters worse, the snow gates all closed, forcing us to return south by heading to Aberdeen first, then take the coastal route back to Glasgow. And so, few fond memories remain of Braemar but we did prime the kids with some tough questions to ask about god!

The following weekend, we took the children to Glencoe, enjoying one of the few days when we all got to ski back to the car park. This is rarely possible and a real pleasure, skipping the queue for the cranky chairlift down the mountain.

 

Braemar Plc experienced a few months of share suspension, due to a historical accounting anomaly which was felt would affect their published accounts. Matters have been apparently resolved and the shares started trading again a few days ago. They are due to release some financial results today, 29th November,. and their share price certainly looks poised for some action.

At time of writing, the share is trading at 290p, needing above 292p to hopefully prompt recovery to an initial 310p and a challenge against the downtrend since 2014. To be honest, this is one of these occasions where we’d be delighted to witness the share price gapped upward at the open of trade, creating a rather perfect “Gap Down / Gap Up” situation, one which should prove capable of provoking future movements to 342p with our longer term influence seen as coming from a future 388p and some probable hesitation.

Similar to the weather in Braemar, this is one of these occasions where anything could happen in the next few hours! The price would need wander below 230p (Red) to justify anxiety.

#Gold #Dax  The ballad of our 3d printer continues, the device successfully replacing BBC Radio2 in the office. Almost silent in operation, it’s become a source of fascination while it tackles whatever project has been deemed important. Today, we obviously felt the need to print a model elephant, a job which took just over 6 hours and proved more interesting than watching someone digging a hole! It appears, just when society has started to tackle the war on plastic, we’ve also developed a new way to feed recycle bins…

As for, DP Poland Plc, it’s curious how bias can develop as personally, I’ve never met a Polish person I didn’t like. Similarly, grand-daughters formed a friendship with a couple of similar age Polish girls at school, creating a ridiculous situation where all 4 girls chatter away, each blithely switching between Polish and English in a skill developed during their primary school years. But discovering the most popular takeaway in Poland is pizza truly gave pause for thought, the nation slipping down a few notches in my estimation.

Ok, this is being written by someone who’s never eaten a pizza, regardless of whether it was from Domino’s or any of the other suppliers of pimped Italian cheese on toast. In defence, this isn’t a bias with roots in good taste but rather, the end result of a series of allergies. But despite this, I still manage to remain a “wee, fat, Scottish bloke”.

Something is certainly going on with Domino Poland’s share price as movement next above 11p suggests growth to an initial 12p with our secondary, if exceeded, at 15.2p. Visually, this appears to be quite a big deal as the share price has experienced difficulty at the 10p level since 2019 and now, appears to be starting to break free. This being the case, it’s not difficult to envisage a future 24.5p exerting a long term attraction.

If things intend go wrong, the price needs close a session below 6p to justify panic. This one is certainly a bit of an oddball, a Polish company, listed on the LSE, along with a website which doesn’t make any claims about blockchain, crypto, or even the price of gold. They do pizza and appear to be experiencing some success.

#Brent #SP500 Barclays is proving a bit greedy, even by banking standards! For the last few years, the share price has developed a; “Why bother with one uptrend, when you can have two?” It’s almost like a deliberate attempt is taking place to confuse the markets, especially as both trend lines may be thought of as equally valid. Of course, the perennial question must be, which one is the most valid?

The answer, obviously, is a little bit impossible to say as despite the price breaking trend, it has yet to achieve any really convincing targets but despite this, the share price needs to close a session above just 144.6 to suggest all this trend break stuff is nonsense. The reason there are two trends which bother us is shown below.

The upper chart, the lower Red trend line represents the Low of the Day and dates back to 2020. Circled, on October 24th, in a completely random act, the market chose to manipulate the share price at the open of trade, gapping it solidly below the conventional Red uptrend. What was especially curious about this completely random act was the price also was opened below the Green Closing Price trend which also dated back to 2020. Our inclination is to embrace a suspicion the market “really” wants Barclays share price to reverse as by any standards, the manipulation at the market open on October 24th was quite emphatic. We use the term ‘manipulation’ quite unapologetically, the price movement being decided prior to any actual trades taking place. Anyone with access to market charts can easily recreate this and wonder just what the market is playing at. Our perspective is to pay more attention to the Green Closing Price uptrend as it starts to appear that’s the one the market is actually playing with.

From an immediate perspective, we are fairly cynical on what’s coming next. Below just 138p calculates with the potential of reversal to an initial 130p with our longer term secondary, if broken, working out at a future 120p, along with a vague potential for a bounce. In the event the 120p level breaks, about the best we dare hope for is a rebound before the 100p level. It is certainly quite odd, how the UK feels like it’s prepping each of the Big Three banks for some savage reversals.

However, Barclays need only close a session above 144.6p to turn our predictions into my boiled rice, or as we call it at home, mush!

Above 144.6p looks capable of triggering surprise recovery to an initial 152p with secondary, if exceeded, an eventual 160p and some potential hesitation, given share price behaviour at this level during this year.

#FTSE_Futures #Brent  Obviously, turkeys are to blame for our grumble this week. With the US enjoying a holiday no-one really understands, apparently commemorating a feast shared by the English Pilgrim colonists and the native American people. What’s strange about this atmosphere of goodwill was to come later with their constitution and the right to bear arms, as guns were deemed essential to shoot the native American people, escaping slaves, and to defend themselves against people with guns, possibly even the English if they ever came back!

It’s an odd occasion, one which is capable of ruining the markets in the run up, as very little realistic tends happen.

This year, no-where has this been more true than the FTSE, the UK index spending the last 5 sessions pivoting marginally above 7488 points. With the UK closing Thursday at 7484, perhaps it was with the assumption “things” shall burst into life, once Americans stop eating. Alas, this is rarely true as the day of ‘Sales’ on Black Friday has also become an unofficial holiday, giving little expectation of the UK market suddenly springing into life.

It is certainly now the case where the market potentials are becoming quite interesting as the FTSE now needs exceed just 7499 points to hopefully trigger index recovery to an initial 7566 points with our secondary, if exceeded, calculating at an amazing 7700 points. If triggered, the tightest stop loss level looks like 7449 points.

 

Our alternate scenario, if things are to remain “parked” until Monday allows weakness below 7444 to drive reversal down to an initial 7378 points with secondary, if broken, at 7274 points. We’re obviously being a little cynical, due to the usual effect of Black Friday, but perhaps this year shall discover some good news capable of putting a positive spin on the markets.

Have a good weekend with the last Grand Prix of the year, hopefully more entertaining than the effort from Las Vegas…

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

#Gold #WallSt  A quick trip through the European markets threw up RWE as being of interest, a surprising feat for a German power company which often seems to be the target of hysterical green policies. Thankfully, they seem to be fighting back, one of several energy companies suing governments for enacting green policies. After so saying, RWE are the worlds second largest offshore power generation company and Europes third-largest in renewable energy, so when they say governments are going too far, they’ve probably got a point.

Reading about RWE’s history since their formation in 1898, unusually there wasn’t the frequent need for a sharp intake of breath during the period of the second world war. Quite the converse turned out to be the case, one of their directors executed by the German government in 1944, partly because he’d said “this war would likely end the same way as 1918. Nowadays, the company appears to be flourishing and is active virtually everywhere except South America and Africa.

 

Our interest in their share price is based on movements since October as it appears possible RWE share price is about to improve, albeit not by a massive amount. Currently, it looks like movement above 39€ could trigger share price recovery to an initial 42 euros. In the event the share price actually closes around such a level, it shall exceed a downtrend which dates back to 2008, placing the share in a zone where a future 54€ becomes believable.

For everything to go horribly wrong, the price would need break below Red on the chart, around 32€ at present, as this risks promoting reversal down to an initial 29 with secondary, if broken, at an improbable looking 25€.

We suspect this intends head upward.

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

#FTSE #Nasdaq When we wrote “first world problem” the other day, it was a suitably disparaging statement to describe the utter suffering experienced, when your Espresso machine has a heated top area, capable of ensuring your stomper has coffee adhering strongly and the two brushes for cleaning things get ruined. But, to be completely honest, there was another quite different need to create an air gap above the top of the coffee machine.

Before skipping ahead and thinking; “this nonsense will never happen to me!”, it will. You reach an age when it feels you may be single handedly keeping the pharmaceutical industry afloat, finding yourself in a zone of hell, pills to take in the morning and pills to take at night. It wasn’t difficult to designate the coffee machine as the pill tray holder, simply turning the tray around when the designated doze of pills were popped. “Night-time Monday pills, rotate it so Day-time Tuesday is next”. No-one wants to habitually take pills but placement of the sodding things makes for an easy reminder, given the importance of starting the day with a coffee.

This is where the issue arose, due to the harsh reality of Cod Liver Oil capsules. These things reside quite happily in a pill tray but dislike heat, especially from an Espresso machine. This runs the risk of accidentally forgetting to turn off the gizmo, finding the capsules melted and merged chemotherapy, blood pressure, diabetes, and even gout prevention pills into a gooey mess.  And thus, it was either the case of abandoning my coffee machine, abandoning my pill intake, or figuring out how to do things better. Which brought me, once again, to the 3d Printer from hell which as I write this, apparently is printing the components for a new shelf capable of holding the coffee stomper, two brushes, and a tray of 7 Day and Night drugs. The job will take around 4 hours…

Phoenix Group share price has enacted something quite interesting. We shall be revisit the share during December but the market indeed opted to gap the price back up above Red on the chart.

McBride Plc This is quite an impressive company, supplying the stock market equivalent for famous “covers” groups such as Led Zeppelin. Everyone uses their products but, due to rebranding for whatever company label is being stuck on the product, remain anonymous. It was surprising to note their cleaning products are supplied through 49 out of 50 of Europe’s top grocery retailers.

Their share price has enjoyed a pretty dire journey since 2017 but recently has started to exhibit some signs of it coming alive again.

During October, the share price was gapped up above an arguable downtrend, the movement suggesting growth exceeding 64p should make an attempt at an initial 80p with secondary, if bettered, at a longer term 108p, perhaps even 150p thanks to the massive gap down in 2019 utterly skewing the numbers. We’re fairly happy about the prospects of a future 80p but suspect we shall need revisit the numbers once such a level is attained.

The share price needs below 38p to utterly foul up our numeric predictions.

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

#Gold #SP500 We reviewed Legal and General back in July, confidently predicting the potential of reversal to 193p and below. An email politely enquired, if we’d like to change our stance on the share, given it “only” fell to 203p and appears to be bouncing? This thankfully gives us an excuse to present recent movements as a ‘learning opportunity’, rather than admit we got it wrong!

The ‘Learning Opportunity’ comes from what occurred, once the share price bounced as two separate and hopefully significant things took place.

Firstly, the price of LGEN closed above the level of the trend break, on November 13th ending the day at 225p. This ticks a pretty important box as generally we take this as a signal everything has changed.

Secondly, and perhaps more importantly, the share price has chosen to regain the prior Red uptrend, quite literally manipulated (gapped) above the trend on November 15th and this provides what is usually a strong indication the market has had a change of heart for the future. Despite the share price squirming around like a Conservative politician, when asked about Covid-19 events, our inclination is to take hope for the immediate future.

Currently, above 232p should prove capable of triggering a nod in the direction of 240p with our longer term secondary, if bettered, at a future 270p. This secondary is doubtless going to prove important, if achieved, as it has the capability of declaring a new high for the share price in 2023, especially as it dumps the price into a zone where a distant cycle to 308p can be expected.

As usual, we can provide a slightly vague converse scenario as perhaps the market shall indulge its sense of humour, one which suggests weakness next below 224p risks promoting the idea of reversal down to 205p. If broken, our secondary calculates at 191p and hopefully a bounce.
