The Dax, Germany & a sceptical look at Lloyds too.

#Dax #BrentFutures The German DAX is looking quite extraordinary, now trading higher than any point ever. It has long bettered its pre-pandemic high, the index reached a logical ceiling level, and now is cheerfully powering upward to hitherto unimagined levels. The argument will doubtless be made of such performance occurring, due to a change in the DAX’ makeup last month. It’s wrong, the DAX high back in August was a new all time high, achieved before the constituents were shuffled.

The immediate situation is quite positive, the Big Picture claiming the DAX intends head to 17,475 points eventually as the next major point of interest, a price level where normal calculations imply some hesitation should be expected. Even nearer term, any ability to exceed 16,090 points signals the potential of movement continuing to 16,385 points with our secondary, if bettered, working out at 16,749 points.

For everything to go horribly wrong for Germany, the market requires to trade below 15,100. Such weakness permits reversal to 14,810 initially with secondary, if broken, a rather more painful 13,694

Lloyds Bank When we previously reviewed Lloyds three weeks ago, we had been privately comfortable the share price was heading to 51.9p next.  The movement triggered eventually, the price surged over a few sessions and instead of achieving our smug 51.9p, the highest achieved was just 51.58p. In the days since, the share price experienced mild hysterics at its temerity, slamming itself back down to the 48p level again.

The implication of this surge bothers us quite a lot. The suggestion is of weakness, despite the share breaking through its Blue downtrend last October. If this theory proves correct, travel below 48p brings the potential of a trip down memory lane to 46.3p. We’re being a little sarcastic, thanks to Lloyds appearing to enjoy the 46p level since April this year, hinting of a desire to pivot above and below such. If broken, our secondary is a less likely visit to 44.4p.

Should things start to go right for Lloyds Bank, the share price now needs better 50.7p to hopefully trigger movement to an initial 53p with our secondary calculating at an attractive 58.3p. As ever, due to this matching the pre-pandemic high, we would anticipate some stutters, should such a target make an appearance.

Our Fabulous FTSE for FRIDAY (FTSE:UKX)

#FreeFutures

The last few years have witnessed considerably fewer dramatics on the FTSE, when the USA Payrolls figures are released on the first Friday of a month. It used to be a really big deal, FTSE movements often proven more dramatic than Wall St futures but nowadays, rather less so. But we keep a weather eye on movements at 1.30pm, just in case!

It’s easy to suspect the employment figures from the USA shall continue to show an improvement and maybe, this time around, when combined with forthcoming UK house price figures, there shall be sufficient excuse to blow the FTSE upward. It’s even the 5th November & Fireworks day, again an excuse for questionable good cheer. Quite why the nation is supposed to celebrate a failed attempt to blow up parliament escapes us. In France, a national holiday known as Bastille Day is assumed to celebrate the beginning of the end for the government and monarchy. Needless to say, in France itself, this national holiday isn’t really about politics and memories of history, instead an attempt to celebrate the nation coming together by taking the day off and enjoying fireworks.

Of course, 5th November isn’t a national holiday in the UK, a country notoriously parsimonious with such concepts. But there are signs the day should experience some gains on the stock market.

 

Currently trading around 7287 points, the FTSE needs exceed 7303 to hopefully trigger near term gains toward an initial 7326 points. While such a movement is pretty tame, our secondary calculation at 7365 points looks quite attainable. Our biggest concern with this scenario? It looks about as close to a sure things as the market ever gives! Our secondary target also intersects with the Blue downtrend which dates back to 2018, a level which shall doubtless provide sufficient excuse for some market collywobbles. The index needs trade below 7237 to scrub these potentials.

If we opt to review our reversal scenario, below 7237 now threatens the risk of reversal to an initial 7199 points. If broken, the market shall hopefully bottom at 7183 points.

Have a good weekend and remember, it’s the Mexican Grand Prix, one often worth watching.

Nuformix Plc LON:NFX , druggies with a future?

#DAX #WallSt Habitually we glance at a company website, when an email request asks us an opinion on a share we’ve not previous looked at. With Nuformix’ website, there was a strong feeling of déjà vu, an almost certainty we’d previously read all their tech bumf. After checking, we found nothing nor had we reported prior to 2017, when known as Levrett Plc. It’s a puzzle.

In our defence, it’s probably a Covid-19 thing, the last 18 months forcing us to review many pharmaceutical concerns with wide ranging expertise. Prior to the pandemic, our main reason for keeping an eye on companies in the drug field, was fuelled by entirely personal reasons, an ongoing ‘battle’ against incurable (but non fatal if treated) leukaemia. The word “battle” is one many folk experiencing chemotherapy prefer avoid, the patient generally an unhappy passenger throughout a process of drugs being used to kill a cancer, preferably without killing the human….

When coming across the term ‘oncology’ when viewing a company website, sometimes the information can be fascinating. Thankfully, Nuformix do not operate in areas of personal interest, thus allowing time to be spent reading without false hope being created for miracle leukaemia cures, promised sometime in the future. It’s easier to be resigned to needing treatment every few years, especially with the added thrill of new drugs provoking interesting and fun new side effects!

 

Something appears to be happening with Nuformix share price. As the chart below highlights, the share has broken through an obvious downtrend for the last year and is even enjoying a little upward surge, doubtless fuelled by traders who retain a belief in trend breaks proving significant. Trends, while certainly important, unfortunately are more than a line on a chart. Presently trading around 1.65p, we shall regard Nuformix as changing its price trend, if the share price manages to inject itself above just 1.75p. We feel exceeding such a trigger level should be significant, moving the price into a cycle where growth to an initial 2.1p makes a lot of visual sense. Again, as the chart shows, this target level also matches prior highs earlier this year, doubtless expecting some hesitation at such a level.

Should the share price actually CLOSE a session above 2.1p, this is liable to be really important as the Bigger Picture impetus calculates the price as being in a longer term recovery phase to a future 3.05p. Again, the chart agrees such a target level should prove logical. And now, we can also take an unusual step of revealing a third target level at 4p. Quite why the share price can be extrapolated with recovery increments of 1p utterly defeats us! It’s a bit odd and very unusual.

But for now, we suspect Nuformix are worthy of some investigation, especially if it exceeds 1.75p. The price needs drip below 1.2p to justify panic.

Taylor Wimpey Plc and a chiptocurrency story

#FTSE #CAC40 Dinner table arguments, as every married couple knows, generally verge on the absurd. For instance, an attempt tonight to resolve a software issue quickly devolved into the utterly absurd with two brains toddling off in different directions. The basic question was quite simple. Is Zero an Odd or Even number? A masterful subject change became a rush to a computer to discover whether Southern Ireland is actually north of Northern Ireland. (It is! but Southern Ireland is just called Ireland, to be fair.)

As for Zero, we couldn’t agree but decided it safest to assume Zero isn’t a number, even though it is. After all, if we write ‘1’, we mean ‘one’ whereas if we write ‘100’ we mean ‘a hundred’. Therefore, zero must have a place in the world, despite some irritating software results. The whole nonsense conversation came about, due to finally trying to resolve an irritating software glitch. When postulating market futures, every now and then our initial ‘fast’ targets calculate with small decimals such as 0.12 or 0.25 and they shouldn’t.  Once around 10 years had gone by, it was finally noticed this only happens when an index number ends in zero. The collection of formula which kicks into life is supposed to spit out a perfectly formed whole number target as the result. But when a days trading Open/Close/High/Low numbers are collated and calculated, we often see this irritating little decimal sidekick to the target number.

My wife opted to suggest short circuiting the process, forcing the final result to be rounded up or down, if an index value was greater than 1,000 points. Essentially, it became a “life’s too short” answer. It made sense but anxious not to leave her with a “win”, moving on to mentioning; ‘not many folk know Southern Ireland extends north of Northern Ireland’ returned our natter to an acceptable level of silly.

 

As for Taylor Wimpey LON:TW., we’re curious as to how the share price shall perform, given the ever growing price of raw materials for building. A recent visit to a builders yard to buy a few metres of a specific type of flooring was a horror show. The yard had ceased stocking the material, due to the price performing completely insanely, despite the timber market already being insane. The guy in the yard kept referring to his ipad for prices as they only order it in for specific sales. Eventually, the joke opportunity couldn’t be ignored and I described the product as being volatile, a Chipto Currency as opposed to a Crypto Currency. Needless to say, the humour needed explained, thanks to most folk being unaware of what happens with Crypto movements. But with Taylor Wimpey a doubtless victim of current Chipto Currency variations, surely their share price shall be at risk if building projects start to price themselves out of the market? (It can be assumed I was quite proud of my ChiptoCurrency joke as the flooring is made from wood chips, glued together, compressed, baked and weatherproof…)

Presently trading around 152p, weakness on Taylor Wimpey below 145p calculates with the potential of reversal to an initial 126p. If broken, our secondary calculates at a hopeful bottom around 107p, ideally a point where a bounce should occur.

In a normal world, we’d usually not be concerned as there’s already a strong argument suggesting the share price wants to head to 239p eventually, doubtless with some pause for thought at the 203p level. Unfortunately, thanks to movements in 2021 proving fairly tepid, doubt is establishing itself and unless the share manages above it’s prior high of 185p, we suspect it shall prove worth watching for a visit to the 107p level.

Darktrace Plc and a trip to the Darkside…

#Gold #Nasdaq It’s a bit of a surprise seeing Darktrace LON.DARK joining the FTSE 100 so quickly following their launch. Perhaps doubly so, due to the company shares being under a ‘No Sell’ moratorium for those who bought at the launch, when they were just 250p. Currently at 681p, the moratorium expires on Wednesday this week, when there will doubtless be frenetic activity to take some profit, if only due to price movements in the last week.

Of course, matters have not been helped, perhaps a suspicion their 4x rise in six months was perhaps optimistic. A firm of city brokers issued a note to the media, entitled “Reality Check”, warning of a disconnect between the company value and its growth prospects. The note also, perhaps spitefully, mentioned some clients of Darktrace describe their technology as “snake oil”. While this sort of thing may often be justified, especially in a marketplace where buzzwords like “crypto”, “game theory” and “blockchain” are used to conceal the salient detail a product is overhyped nonsense, the pedigree of the folk behind Darktrace should give pause for thought. After all, with security specialists escaping from GCHQ counted among the brains, some respect for the company should be justified.

 

The big question is how low should the share price be expected to fall, should there be a rush to ‘take profit’ this week?

 

If we extrapolate on the company share price behaviour since June, the immediate situation suggests weakness below 668p should permit reversal down to an initial 574p. Should such a level break, bottom should hopefully occur at 511p, providing a bounce and still producing a ‘nice little earner’ for those initial investors who retain their shares. We can predict a pretty nasty problem, should the company share price close a session below 511p. In such an event, continued reversal will enjoy a “Big Picture narrative, justifying travel down to 268p, virtually a break even level for initial investors.

This price becomes extremely dangerous, obviously psychologically capable of providing a bounce but unfortunately, also residing in a movement cycle where the Big Picture calculates with an ultimate bottom down at 116p. We cannot calculate below such a level and, to be fair, it’s difficult to imagine such a recently listed company, a member of the FTSE 100, finding itself in such a position where its share price could experience so much damage.

 

Our suspicion is to anticipate 511p making an appearance sometime soon. Currently, the share needs better 800p to escape this misery.

Natwest Group LSE:NWG big picture optimism?

#Brent #Dax In virtually every marketplace, the last week has been almost amusing. In several countries, financial institutions were reporting record profit levels yet, when the news was released, the share price would reverse. It was very much an instance of “Buy on the rumour, Sell on the news” but the media, of course, fought hard to discover other reasons for the reversals.

 

In the case of Natwest, the principal cause of the reversals was blamed on a potential change in Interest Rates next Thursday with two evil members of the committee refusing to give any clue as to their thinking, thus apparently causing uncertainty. Then again, the bank also plead guilty in a money laundering court case, the bank being accused of failing to monitor the activity of one of its clients between 2012 and 2016. As a result of the guilty plea, the bank anticipates a fine of around 250 million, rather than 340 million had they contested the case. A little digging revealed a hilarious fact of the case. The client had been depositing bags of cash, amounting to 264 million over the period. The clients business plan had anticipated turnover of £15 million per annum. Once upon a time, bank branches had managers who paid attention to this sort of thing, now mostly pensioned off to golf courses. I’ve a personal memory of once depositing several thousand pounds in cash from a retail business, only to receive a call from the manager asking why there were so many £100 notes in the bag. The total value was fairly normal, the presence of £100 notes was something out of the ordinary.

The explanation was quite basic. His branch had given them to me the previous day as I was viewing an old car called a MGB V8. On viewing the heap of rust held together by paint, common sense reared its head and the money swiftly returned to the bank.

 

When we previously reviewed Natwest, we’d a scenario suspecting movement to 233p, something the share price has achieved. In fact, it marginally exceeded the 233p level, achieving 235p on several days and closing slightly above 233p also. This is something we tend regard as a good thing, nudging the share price into a region where some Big Picture influences shall hopefully make themselves know. The recent 5% drop in the share price, while an issue, isn’t terribly alarming as it makes us suspect slight reversals may occur before a surprise upward surge.

The immediate situation suggests weakness below 229 shall bring travel down to an initial 213 with secondary, if broken, at 205p. Neither scenario is particularly alarming, taking the price to the levels of the prior low.

Instead, we now hope for movement above 235p to bring a surge to an initial 253p. With closure above 253p, the Big Picture now calculates with a longer term attraction at 330p.

A Ferrari & Our FTSE for FRIDAY NYSE:RACE & FTSE:UKX

#FreeFutures This year, Formula 1 has proven quite vibrant, less processional than recent years, and even Ferrari are looking more interesting. Obviously, the marque doesn’t have a chance of winning any titles but it’s nice to see the red cars ‘up there’. Despite a suspicion the current leader for the drivers title, Red Bull, shall be discovered to be secretly interpreting rules to suit themselves, Ferrari remain trailing at just 4th place in the constructors standings.

However, the car manufacturer appear to be suffering a share price which is doing very nicely! Perhaps this confirms the theory of Ferrari making their best road cars, when their racing team is doing poorly. The company last won a world championship in 2007 but their shares, traded in New York, continue to go from strength to strength.

The immediate situation is quite positive, suggesting movement next above $238 should make an attempt at an initial confident $245. If exceeded, we can calculate the potential of a longer term visit to $257. For everything to go into reverse, the share price needs slip below $204 as this permits reversal an initial $191 with secondary, if broken, at $175 and an almost certain bounce.

FTSE for FRIDAY It has been a pretty painful week, the UK market  enjoying a range of just 60 ish points over 4 days. As we enter the Halloween weekend, should we suspect a major fright is awaiting to panic traders? There is a detail worthy of consideration. Our report last Friday provided a target of 7275 points. On both Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, the index achieved 7280 points, marginally above our target level and giving a reasonable reserve of hope for what’s coming next.

Above 7281 points now suggests coming strength to an initial 7354 points. If bettered, our secondary calculates at 7425 points. An interesting (from our perspective) detail relates to the recent period of relative hiatus, while on an upward cycle. Quite often, things change pretty fast with sharp upward movements over a period of days. While it’s the case the FTSE needs trouble the 7500 point, just to challenge the market level, pre-pandemic, arguments are accumulating supporting such a potential.

 

If everything intends go a little bit wrong, the FTSE needs below 7210 points to risk triggering reversal to an initial 7156 points. If broken, we can work out the risk of a secondary at 7082 points, hopefully with a solid bounce.

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.
