Monday proved eventful in this respect as my schedule was planned. First, rise just after 7am, make coffee, and watch the markets as they opened, running a few test scenario to try and figure out where things are going. By 9:30, I was mentally propped to contact the DVLA in Swansea to discuss a problem with our registration document. Long story short, the dealer did the registration on-line, then also did it on paper, the registered keeper being myself on one document and my wife on another. It also increased the number of keepers. Once the incredibly helpful lady at the DVLA stopped laughing, she conceded she&#8217;d never experienced this and would need a superior to assist. It was to take quite a few hours to sort this out, so the next job was missed and my grey remained undyed. The next job was to order a garden shed, an exercise which failed due to payment authentication and the efforts of 3 Mobile.\u00a0 A text message was supposed to arrive on my phone, allowing the transaction to be completed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial;\">The phone, quite smugly, remains unimpressed and no message was received. Living in a mountainous area in Argyll, this wasn&#8217;t entirely unheard of so I climbed up above the cliff in the hope the bars on my phone appeared. They didn&#8217;t.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial;\">In frustration, I used my wifes phone to contact 3 Mobile, while also changing the &#8220;call verification&#8221; number with the bank. 3Mobile informed they&#8217;d turned off 3G services in our area, meaning I needed a new phone. As I&#8217;d replaced ny phone earlier this year, their advice was going to be wrong and of course, it was. The Samsung device &#8220;only&#8221; needed something enabled to allow 4g to work. Meanwhile, my wifes phone still had not received the verification code and I queried with the bank. It would take 48 hours for the change to enact and even if I wanted to change it back to my own phone number, it would still take 48 hours.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial;\">By now, we&#8217;d a car in the driveway which wasn&#8217;t entirely registered or insured, thanks to the mess up. We&#8217;d a phone which wasn&#8217;t working properly and a shed purchase hanging in utter limbo. Keeping calm was the order of the day, difficult to disguise due to my remaining surfeit of grey hair,\u00a0 and all that was needed next was to order Heating Oil. Unfortunately, it was now after 5pm and they were closed, making this the most unsuccessful &#8220;To Do&#8221; list ever to ruin a Monday.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial;\"><b>ASOS<\/b> share price seems to have been executing a &#8220;Not To Do&#8221; list of concepts as it has proven pretty foul since May 2023. On the bright side, when we previously reviewed this, we&#8217;d speculated on a potential bottom at 277p but encouragingly, the lower it has fallen has been around 320p, perhaps implying some hidden strength in the share price. We can certainly wonder if their recent sale of &#8220;TopShop&#8221; shall justify some growth in the share price or perhaps, their sane charge of a return fee of nearly \u00a34 to challenge those buyers who are just messing around with a previous free return policy. Alternately, of course, there&#8217;s the risk the Chinese giant Shein will close in as they invade the UK after eclipsing Boohoo?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial;\">Currently, it feels like some recovery potential is slowly becoming possible, movement above just 436 hopefully triggering recovery to an initial 530 with our secondary, if bettered, an amazing (and thus, unlikely) looking 573p.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial;\">Should things intend behave like our Monday, below 411 threatens weakness to an initial 394 with our secondary, if broken at 385p. We would really hope for a bounce before the 385p level as the share price, from a Big Picture argument, cannot afford to experiment below such.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span
