#FTSE #STOX50 This lot are a huge disappointment to us. Traditionally, when we run low on things to write about and consecutively feel guilty about our ongoing refrain about the dreadful weather here in Argyll (yesterdays Christmas lights didn’t survive todays 75mph breeze) leave us a little short of inspiration to write about OSB. Unfortunately, the only thing of immediate interest occurs on December 17th, when the OSB Group brand “Kent Reliance” withdraw from new lending , the focus diverted to “Rely”, OSB Groups new dedicated buy-to-let brand. Their new organisation shall hopefully be geared with a more straightforward focus than lenders already in the marketplace, a chum recently almost tearing her hair our trying to satisfy her traditional lenders annoying hurdles.<\/p>\n

She was left with the distinct impression the lender she’d used previously on several occasions was frustrated and unable to cope with Financial Regulator restrictions any longer. It’s certainly the case, if interest rates in the UK continue to fall, she shall once again attempt to buy a few properties. It is certainly interesting the salient detail “Rely” are being launched on Wed 17th December, the day before a BoE decision on whether they reduce interest rates or continue to destroy the UK economy with a discredited method of market manipulation, interest rates.<\/p>\n

Returning to OSB Group, their share price is exhibiting some rather optimistic potentials. Currently, above 585p has the potential to trigger growth to an initial 711p with our secondary, if bettered, at an impressive 795p. This is fairly impressive, given the usual UK adherence to a code of non performance, so we think this share may be worth watching. It’s rare for us to report such a happy potential.<\/p>\n

Our alternate scenario, if everything intends go wrong – like an interest rate rise – the share price needs flounder below 526p as reversals down to an initial 481 looks possible. Should such a level break, our secondary calculates at 447p along with considerable hope for a rebound. To be fair, the share price needs close a session below 503p to inspire a justified doze of panic.<\/p>\n

For now, we feel pretty optimistic for this one.<\/p>\n

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 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
