Hurricane Energy (LSE:HUR), a fallen star?

#Gold #SP500

Once a company with a vibrant, exciting, share price, Hurricane Energy now finds itself pretty becalmed. It’s all a bit strange and appears to have been infected at the start of November last year, when the market opted to “gap” (manipulate) the share price up above the downtrend since 2019. And in the period since, sod all has effectively been happening!

Visually, it’s all a little strange. Generally, when the market opts to gap a share out of an immediate trend, it can be taken as a pretty sure sign the markets strongly expect something is coming yet, in the months since, Hurricane has struggled to achieve more than a one penny trading range. Of course, perhaps this means whatever expectation the market has, it may not be for something positive. The immediate situation certainly isn’t the most vibrant, at best giving a suggestion share price movement above 8.4p could challenge an initial 9.3p with secondary, if beaten, a marginally better 10.3p. It is all quite frustrating as we can even supply a 3rd level target of 11.9p.

Unfortunately, the share price needs close above 11.9p to suggest happy days are here again as true recovery becomes possible, the share price successfully making the transit from market plaything to something with very real potentials for the longer term.

 

Our converse scenario suggests weakness below 7p risks promoting reversal to 5.5p with secondary, if broken, a hopeful bottom of 3.22p.

For now, like the Ferrari F1 team, it’s a share with potential but visually inhibited by a series of bad choices.

Lloyds Banking Group (LSE:LLOY), and a silly cow!

#Brent #Dax

An attempt at rationing all 8 episodes of the excellent Clarkson’s Farm season 2 to avoid binging worked out, until Episode 7. His battle with the local council demanded the 8th and final episode was also consumed, the behaviour of a particular calf reminding me quite sharply we’d to run an analysis on Lloyds.

The similarity between the calf and Lloyds wasn’t difficult to miss. When the 4 legged monster decided it was going to wander away from the herd and ascend a low mound, virtually all of Clarkston’s staff eventually congregated at the top of the mound, trying to get the animal to come down. Among the hilarity was a clear simile between bovine behaviour and the British banking industry. The banks should be heading in a particular direction, instead choosing to wander off and do their own thing, to heck with everything else.

After all, we should have anticipated, with the FTSE at all time record levels,  the big three retail banks each enjoying a share price which appears to have absolved itself of any need to make useful movements which will impress investors. Currently, we would like to see Barclays discover sufficient excuse to wake up one morning and “gap” the share price above 181p. Equally, if Natwest “gapped” itself above 314p, we’d be aghast and Lloyds only need leap above 54p. A group of movements such as this would (probably) prove quite special for the retail banks, firmly and finally giving a strong signal something positive is happening.

Alternately, maybe Mr Clarkson’s girlfriend could get behind the shares, armed with her springy cane which she used to motivate the cow to grudgingly wander in the correct direction, her method of making herself as wide as possible being one which really works. But for local Highland cows here in Argyll, wandering along a lane, it’s generally easy to redirect them before they hit the main road.

 

In the event some dreams come true, what should we now anticipate if Lloyds share price somehow is gapped above 54p?

Initially, we expect movement to an initial 63p and possible hesitation. Our secondary, if such a level is bettered, works out at a quite useful 76p, hopefully a significant number. As the chart below shows, there’s a historical glass ceiling around the 73p level and closure above this green line shall be important for the longer term, punting the share into a zone where we shall now see a longer term attraction as coming from 123p.

For now, we lack any real confidence due to recent movements but genuinely suspect “the tell” will be the markets discovering a reason to gap bank shares up at the open one day.

FTSE for FRIDAY (FTSE:UKX) & S&P 500 Thoughts

#FTSE #SP500

 

Upsets come in many forms and rarely can we know the direction the next problem is coming from. The forest, at the top of our garden, provided something new to consider. We’ve a couple of LED light bars which are sealed inside old 2 litre cola bottles. The low voltage lights, powered by redundant mobile phone chargers, are literally chucked on the forest floor with 20 metres of thin power cable leading to the tough, weatherproof, electrical supply box. Any animal chewing the cable is unlikely to be harmed by the 3,3v supply for the green and blue light bottles which cast a pleasant glow in the trees.

However, seeing our clever waterproof lights suddenly moving around at night provoked a panic. A group of three Roe Deer were investigating, one with blue light over its head, another holding the green light in its mouth. The animals had clearly figured out the clear bottles were not edible, not dangerous, but could provide a source of entertainment. Realising an epic photograph was possible, it only took a move toward the house for an insignificant silent stampede to commence as the animals took flight. Thankfully, the lights were undamaged, resuming their usual position on the forest floor, another completely unexpected encounter with Argyll’s wildlife over and, as usual, without even a terrible snapshot from a mobile phone.

 

Obviously, “expecting the unexpected” should be the official mantra for stock markets worldwide. At present, our inclination is to anticipate trouble from North America, the S&P 500 and Wall St both giving early signs for potential trouble. Balancing against this, the UK and Europe appear to be surprisingly strong, following their own trend rather than slavishly adhering to the USA.

Currently, the S&P 500 is trading around 3980 points, needing above 4300 points for us to suggest something along the lines of “we no longer thing it’s going to drop, just go long and you may pick up over 500 points along the way!”. Unfortunately, from a charty viewpoint, it seems possible the market is also aware of the pickle it’s got itself into and is trying to avoid blindly heading into a zone where good times look very possible.

Instead, it’s now the case where below 3700 points calculates with the potential of reversal to 3300 points with secondary, if broken, at 2958 points. All the S&P needs is its own family of Roe Deer to stumble along and cause some havoc.

FTSE for Friday.  As mentioned earlier, the FTSE appears surprisingly strong, when compared against North America. Despite the last couple of weeks proving as decisive as myself when viewing a takeaway menu (before opting for my usual), there is something fairly important which can be spotted with market movements. As the two insets show, for some reason the immediate Red uptrend since October last year has been deemed inviolate, the market refusing to allow the FTSE to close below the trend. It makes us suspect we’ve been witnessing a slowdown, rather than warning of potential FTSE reversals.

The immediate situation therefore appears quite promising as above 7955 points should now make an attempt at an initial 7989 points. Our longer term secondary target calculates at 8033 points. If this scenario triggers, visually the tightest stop appears to be at 7900 points.

If things intend go a little wrong, below 7878 could easily trigger reversal to an initial 7858 with secondary, if broken, at 7795 points and hopefully a rebound.

 

Have a good weekend and, if you’re a glutton for punishment, remember the first Grand Prix of the season is taking place in Bahrain

Will Cellular Goods (LSE:CBX) get high?

#Gold #Japan

Inevitably, when a company manages to star in the list of top risers, we invariably check if a news report mentioning a Goose and Golden Eggs is featured. However, for Cellular Goods, there was nothing, thankfully not even a “We know of no reason for…” news release by the company. Maybe in this instance, something is actually happening as their share price decline has proven quite disappointing, the blame inevitably easily laid with the UK Govt.  The unhelpful UK attitude in allowing promotion of cannabis based products, products where any personal experience tends turn folk into true believers certainly did no favours for CBX.L, a real company with some really effective products. Already a devotee of something called CBD Oil, discovered during chemotherapy (not the faux hemp based product sold by Semichem etc), the writer hoped Cellular Goods, backed by Beckham, would be the one to make the breakthrough to mainstream acceptance.

Perhaps news Twitter are easing their blinkered approach to advertising from the medical cannabis sector shall prove to be the reason for the 41% rise in share price. From the feel of share price movements during 1st March, some real hope felt possible as there wasn’t the usual massive spread, indicative of a pump & dump scam being fed from an internet chatroom. In fact, as the afternoon proceeded, everything almost felt genuine when viewing the mid-price against the Buy/Sell prices since noon. Still, this is the UK stock market and crossing ones fingers remains a tried and tested technical term. It doesn’t work, just gives the nervous trader something else to think about!

 

For light relief, we drew a lot of lines on the chart in an attempt to decide if the share price is actually reacting to a trend. This appears to be the case as, should we draw a trend since March of last year, the share exceeded the Blue line last week. Now, allegedly armed with a Cellular Goods lotion to hopefully ease the pain of the dreadful price drop during January and February, it’s easy to extrapolate some reasonable growth potentials for the future.

Currently trading around 1.1p, our software suggests the share price needs to actually close above 1.55p to be viewed as triggering movement to an initial 2.20p with secondary, if bettered, a more encouraging 3p. Visually, there’s an almost certain expectation of hesitation around the 3p level, if only due to the bunch of folk trapped in the share since the high of last August, opting to bail at break even and introducing selling pressure.

At this level, things get interesting according to our software.

If CBX.L discover an excuse for the share price to close a session above 3p, things move into Big Picture calculation territory, a period where lots of targets become available due to the Big Picture presenting a surprising 7.6p as a major ambition for the distant future.

 

Should everything decide to go horribly wrong, the share currently needs close a session below roughly 0.664p. This would be a seriously bad thing, worse than getting sand in your pain relief cream…

Blackrock World Mining (LSE:BRWM) in Christmas lights

#FTSE #Stoxx50

When we ran the numbers on Blackrock last year, we suggested it needed exceed 631p to achieve an eventual 717p as our secondary target. This was all triggered, done and dusted, before the Xmas decorations vanished in January. Except for one house, locally, where the owners appear to have decided the white lights woven through their fence and garden bushes improved everything. They’ve ditched anything ‘Christmassy’ with their lighting but come December, they shall only need hang up a couple of Holly garlands.

It almost feels wrong to admit they are probably right, so much so we’re considering springing some lights on our cherry blossom tree before the thing decides to bloom. This tree takes the opportunity to grace our front garden with blooms for a few weeks, then just looks disappointing when the pink display falls to the grass. As last week came to an end, we were convinced it was Spring here in Argyll, daffodils ready to bloom, grass making twitching noises. But over the last few days, in addition to the most amazing Aurora Borealis display, we also experienced sub-zero temperatures, everything frozen solid by midnight in a thick white frost. Thanks to the mountain in our back garden, the Borealis couldn’t be seen and going for a drive on icy roads at midnight for a view North which didn’t have a mountain in the way wasn’t appealing.

 

Returning to Blackrock, the immediate situation for their share price looks like it also has the potential for a hard frost, needing only below 680p to risk triggering reversal to an initial 615p with our secondary, if this level breaks, calculating at 553p and hopefully a proper bounce.

However, our inclination is to take some hope from the way in which the share price exceeded our recent 717p target, especially as it implies strength.

Now above 749p should prove capable of a lift to an initial 794p with secondary, if beaten, a longer term 885p and a new all time high. Our expectation would be for the share price to suffer some hesitation at this secondary level, if achieved.

Gold updated (PM:XAUUSD), ready to shine again?

#Gold #SP500

We’re long time fans of the Gold Rush TV franchise on Discovery, faithfully tuning in every week to fast forward through any segments which involve “Freds Crew”, the “Hoffman Crew” or “The Kelly Crew” on Bering Sea gold. This avoidance ritual is fairly easily explained, the Discovery producers tending allocate time to some mining crews  who couldn’t find water in an ocean.

The idiot value of some gold miners cannot be overstated. On Gold Rush, one group of miners recently completed a weeks digging and sifting, discovering absolutely nothing in the process. Had any thought been given to actually testing their bucket loads of dirt – like real miners do – the results would have been quite different. Or on Bering Sea Gold, the “Kelly Crew”, this year armed with an enormous dredge and digger, actually achieved substantially less gold than an experienced, pregnant, female miner. Once again, what separated the crews was some basic intelligence, getting advice and testing the results. Thankfully now absent from Gold Rush, the “Hoffman Crew” were notorious as the miners who decided to dig deep, perhaps because they liked the colour of wild flowers on the ground above. Over the years, the story ending is always the same, the incompetent crews run out of money, presumably due to the producers stopping paying them for entertainment value.

Our own garden stream now boasts a handmade device near the bottom of the waterfall, the aim being for tons of gold to become trapped in a bottom layer of carpet as the water rushes through. Despite watching Gold Rush for around 10 years, the first iteration of my personal gold trap vanished, following its first battle with heavy water flow. The current version resides further away from the water fall and around once every few weeks, the hairy carpet is squeezed out to disgorge a load of invisible gold, calling into question my original efforts at panning for gold in the quartz and iron mineral laden stream. Perhaps a couple of tiny flakes of gold, each roughly the size of a politicians integrity, did not prove anything for the stream which makes its way down from a fresh water well, roughly 500 feet up the mountain. Then again, our Gold trap cost absolutely nothing to operate or buy, and hope always springs eternal, as they say.

 

Our previous look at Gold last December proved remarkably successful, the price triggering and climbing above 1805 dollars to our 1901 dollar target. This time around, we’re not quite as confident as to the approaching direction for the price of Gold.

The immediate situation suggests weakness below 1807 dollars should provoke a slight meltdown to an initial 1765 with secondary, if broken, at 1698 dollars. If triggered, the tightest stop loss level calculates around $1822. Visually, the immediate cycle looks perfectly capable of making an attempt at the 1700 dollar level, a point where we suspect a bounce should occur.

What happens if the price of Gold bubbles up above $1822?

Such a scenario currently presents the potential of a lift to a surprising 1848 dollars with our longer term secondary, if bettered, working out at $1888. As we said earlier, at present we’ve no great confidence the market itself even has a clue to real direction and arithmetically, we find it easy to jump on this bandwagon.

Barclays Plc (LSE:BARC), will it ever be spring?  

#Brent #Nasdaq

The grass has started growing here in Argyll, always worrying as the onset of spring invariably provokes the need to service our little tractor. Worse than foliage, pools in the forest are coated with frog-spawn, unseasonably early, a good summer ahead as clever frogs avoid their breeding ground drying out in good weather. Finally, Barclays opted to establish a £1.2bn bonus pot, so of course their share price dropped like a stone on February 15th.

All kidding aside, over the years we’ve notice the markets invariably “feel” better in good weather, probably because there is nothing to beat a doze of sunshine for provoking a feel good factor amongst traders. Alas, for Barclays, we have concerns!

 

The Blue line on the chart dates back to 2007. As trends go, it certainly appears to be valid, the market manipulating Barclays share price below this trend in a hysterical movement celebrating essentially nothing. The company CFO mentioned pre-tax profits would have been up 9%, had there not been a need to increase the amount of money tucked under the banks mattress to cover a ‘potential’ rise in Covid load defaults. With distinctly unsporting behaving, she also mentioned;

So we are not seeing increases in arrears. If anything, they are lower than they were, and very stable.

There was quite a lot about Barclays share price drop (circled) which failed to make sense, leaving us with a distinct suspicion it’s just not the banking sectors turn to experience positive movement. A contrived drop to force the share price below a 16 year old trend felt just a little silly. We believe the next problem shall arise, should Barclays close a session below 169p as ongoing reversal to 160p looks very possible with our secondary, and hopeful bounce point, working out at 150p.

Our converse scenario, if any miracles are scheduled, comes if the bank share manages to close a session above Blue (179p presently) as movement to 196p calculates as possible with our secondary working out at a visually pleasing 218p and almost certain hesitation.

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.
