Natwest Group Plc (LSE:NWG) and a target above 1100p!!!

It finally happened, we ended up lighting a log fire on Friday evening, the first of winter. From the scent of burning wood permeating the air, we were not the only folk making the decision to light a fire, rather than face extortion over the price of heating oil. This is a fairly big issue here in the Scottish Highlands (Glasgow Airport is around 25 miles away…), the concept of supplying gas to villages somehow escapes installers. As a result, houses are Oil, Electric, or Big Gas Tank in the garden, but most folk also take a cautionary approach by ensuring they’ve wood burning stoves. But needless to say, the coming week allegedly promises 20c temperatures, aka roof down weather in the car.

Natwest Group should also be experiencing a “roof down” moment as they’ve a visual possibility of their share price heading to new levels!

We’re a bit cautious about this, even though the share has already achieved a “higher high” since breaking through the 19 year old Blue downtrend since 2007. Rather a lot has happened which suggests we should treat this Blue downtrend very seriously but, if we’re honest, until Natwest share price closes above the immediate initial target level of 730p, we’d advocate caution, advising not to rush out and buy a small bottle of Babysham. (Do they still sell that stuff?)

The immediate situation for Natwest suggests strength above 714 should trigger traffic to an initial 730p next. Our longer term secondary, should such a level be exceeded, calculates at 754p and almost certain hesitation, despite the future attraction from a long term 1,155p dangling in the distance. This, almost shocking, target level is a Big Picture thing which became “real” once the share price broke through the Blue downtrend since 2007 with a series of movements which confirm – according to our in-house rules – the Big Picture downtrend is real and represents something we should anticipate the share price to react against, as time goes on.

Should Natwest intend clown around, the share needs below 665 currently to potentially trigger reversal to an initial 633 with our secondary, if broken, at 603p and a very possible “bottom”.

Many thanks for taking the time to read this and good luck for today. Please feel free to mention us after something goes right!

Our Galactically Famous FTSE for FRIDAY

A surprising number of folk agreed with our whimsical humour of moving UK politicians to Rwanda, giving them the luxury of a private gated community and no internet access as a thanks for their excellent service to the UK, and their bank accounts. But somehow, the Bank of England managed a surprise movement on Thursday by choosing to leave Interest Rates alone, despite the US managing a clearly political increase the previous day. It was all very strange, leaving a suspicious hint some of the folks in the BoE Monetary Committee may be practicing the lost art of “thinking” for themselves.

The FTSE 100 appeared to appreciate the approach from the BoE, managing to gain a substantial 111 points as the day commenced, closing the session exactly 100 points above the point at which the Bank of England embraced common sense with their rates announcement. It was all quite unsettling, leaving us the only thing to complain about being the weather here in Argyll.

We allowed ourselves a laugh at the announcement England needed 9 months of rain to fully alleviate the effects of the drought. Essentially, this was a longer range weather forecast for our part of the world, autumn looking like it was over and done with during the last week, leaves which had quickly turned brown suddenly blowing off trees, creating a soggy mass like seaweed abandoned by the tide. Oh, we can also complain about the lack of a Formula1 race this weekend.

But more importantly, we’d reached that time of September, when those who took an extended August holiday are now starting back at work. To be blunt, the grown ups should now be back from holiday and the stock markets should start exhibiting a real interest in life. Currently for the FTSE, movement exceeding 10,824 points should attain an initial 10,873 points with our secondary, if bettered, at 10,897 points. If triggered, the tightest stop loss level looks tight at 10,810 points though 10,774 would make a lot more sense.

Should things intend go wrong, below 10,780 risks triggering reversals to an initial 10,746 with our secondary, if broken, a less likely 10,697 points.

Have a good weekend.

Hopefully we’re about to see the FTSE inveigle itself into closing a day above 10,910 as this should indicate the market breaking upward from its recent period of tedium.

Kier Group, when Clickbait isn’t needed?

Increasingly, we cannot help but wonder if a “Class Action” legal case could be taken against the folk who write headlines on the internet. The MSN homepage, on Microsoft Edge, is especially guilty of wasting time and a glance tonight revealed a couple of crackers; “Microscopic alien technology hidden in moon dust”  was a classic to avoid, as was “Surprise Monaco GP format change confirmed in new F1 announcement“. A 10 second speed read revealed NO Alien Tech is hidden in moon dust and also, the Monaco Formula1 race shall remain its usual boring processional self. Except they have padded the weekend out with an additional boring race with no overtakes. Of course, there are always the deceptive adverts which the Advertising Standards Authority used to regulate – unless they were on the Internet; “Homeowners PAID to upgrade their windows? Find out how.” was one such advert this evening, the discrete question mark giving them a “get out of jail” excuse for an advert where absolutely no home owner, anywhere, shall be paid to upgrade windows.

Of course, the Clickbait concept is nothing new. It was always the case with the printed media, where it was acknowledged any front page headline attracting a visit to inner pages was a lie, a practice which easily contributed to the death of the genre, the idea of a daily newspaper being important consigned to the minds of folk who work in the industry. Aside – mostly – from the Financial Times, the idea of picking up a free newspaper before boarding a BA flight to London has become an ancient memory.

Our own attitude toward Clickbait headlines tends be quite reserved. We do our stuff, report the numbers, make a polite cough when some targets are met, and move onto the next thing. It makes for an easier life, rather than joining those who lie for a living in a desperate attempt for Internet views. Our “thing has always been a preference for just being right.

But in a move which has attracted the attention of trading giants in the league of Buffet, the Mutual Funds, the Hedge Funds, a bloke who lives on Guernsey and another in Barcelona, our recent review of Kier Group has proven extremely successful. The share price, as predicted, hit our trigger and surged upwards, confidently achieving and beating our initial target!

This opens the door for a reasonable future. The situation NOW for Kier to move above 287p as this should apparently trigger a cycle of gains which should hesitate around 320p. If beaten, our longer term secondary now calculates at 360p. While the share price exhibits some amazing long, long, term potentials if this scenario starts to unfold, for now we suspect it shall prove safest to advocate for our moderate target levels,. rather than mention a distant attraction from 1051p,

And if things intend go wrong, below 214p would hammer a pretty unpleasant nail into their share price future. But we suspect they’d have to announce a new gated community in Rwanda for hard working UK politicians…

Risk Warning & Notice to Investors

Buying, selling and investing in shares is not without risk. Market and company movement will affect your performance and you may get back less than you invest. Neither Trends and Targets Ltd, Shareprice, or Interactive Investor will be responsible for any losses that may be incurred as a result of following a trading idea.

Marks & Spencer Group Plc (LSE:MKS) and Baklava

News of a town in middle England (Nottingham) opting to ban Baklava seems unfair. We once had a local deli where we’d routinely buy a whole tray of the wonderful Greek honey & nuts luxury, promising to make it last a week but aware it’d be a competition between my wife, daughter, and myself as we each were serious about getting our ‘share’. A personal diagnosis of Coeliac disease unfortunately made the tray of heaven a distant memory for my digestive system, Baklava suddenly missing from our household. Neither wife nor daughter liked to visit the deli, due to always finding themselves spending a small fortune on products which made joining Weight Watchers a necessary evil.

Unfortunately, the next time our local radio news broadcast covered the story, the word ‘Balaclava’ had replaced ‘Baklava’, destroying the mental image of Nottingham police greedily searching people at demonstrations in case they were carrying a Greek speciality! Knowing our local radio station, the initial miss-labelling was probably not a mistake, their sense of humour being notorious in their never ending search for plausible deniability!

Bizarrely, this story brings us neatly to M&S, my wife recently visiting to buy some gluten free products and also choosing an Assorted Baklava Selection for old times sake. Usually, she praises M&S products but in this instance, declared their Baklava to be a poor comparison with the trays of the stuff we used to buy. It was one of these “once you’ve eaten the real thing” moments but the dog really enjoyed her occasional mega treat over the next few days.

We’d an email about M&S as apparently an analyst somewhere has been sounding quite excited about their share price prospects. We’re not so sure confidence should be allowed for the immediate future as weakness next below 368p looks very capable of provoking reversal to an initial 360p. Our secondary, if such a level breaks, calculates down at a very probable 341p and hopefully a real bounce. If wanting to play with short positions, the tightest stop loss looks like 386p.

However, there is obviously a chance the analyst promoting Marks & Spencer may have spotted something useful. Should this be the case, above 386p should exhibit some surprise potentials, allowing for a visit to an initial 422p with our longer term secondary, if exceeded, working out at 434p. This sort of thing would be extremely significant, suggesting the share price is breaking from from the hiatus which has infected the share price since the start of 2025.

Perhaps M&S shall prove worth watching, though we suspect due to imminent reversal potentials.

Many thanks for taking the time to read this and good luck for today. Please feel free to mention us after something goes right!

Games Workshop PLC. Perhaps There’s Something to Warhammer?

In full disclosure, we don’t really get Games Workshop. Its relentless focus on Warhammer and associated products has always left us rather cold. In fairness, people who develop a fascination with Dungeons & Dragons can sometimes seem as though they have arrived from another planet — in fact, they might — because the human capacity for becoming completely immersed in an imaginary environment is something this writer has never quite understood. Why spend hours in a world that doesn’t exist when there is perfectly good reality to deal with?

Over the years, we’ve come to accept that this is probably our failing rather than theirs. Perhaps some people simply have a greater appetite for immersion than we do. There is, after all, a certain similarity with the world of model railways: enthusiasts can spend extraordinary amounts of time constructing wonderfully detailed environments, faithfully reproducing landscapes and surroundings that are entirely comprehensible to the rest of us. Warhammer simply takes that concept somewhere considerably further, providing its devotees with a fully developed universe in which the basic framework already exists. All that remains is to paint it, populate it and, presumably, lose several hours of one’s life in the process.

Which brings us, rather unexpectedly, to audiobooks.

Audiobooks are an easy way of consuming literature — or science fiction — while allowing the mind to wander elsewhere. For this writer, listening through a single ear while getting on with something else works remarkably well. What doesn’t work, however, are the increasingly common “read by a full cast” productions offered by Audible.

The reason is simple. A conventional audiobook still leaves the listener’s imagination to do much of the work. The characters have voices, certainly, but the world itself remains largely yours to construct. A full-cast production changes that. Suddenly the voices, performances and sound effects begin supplying the interpretation for you. It can be entertaining, but it also removes something fundamental from the experience of reading: the freedom to imagine the world for yourself.

And perhaps that is where our earlier prejudice against Games Workshop begins to look rather less convincing.

The share price

We can, at least, award ourselves a modest pat on the back for our previous Games Workshop review. We proposed a target level just above £22, and the share price duly obliged.

Unfortunately, it failed to close above our 22,128p target, and has paid a fairly brutal price in the months since. The technical picture has consequently changed, and there is now a possibility that further trouble lies ahead.

From an immediate perspective, a move below 17,060p would suggest a reversal towards an initial 16,800p. Should that level subsequently fail, our longer-term secondary calculation points towards an eventual bottom around 14,972p, potentially followed by a rebound.

We remain somewhat reluctant to place too much confidence in downside reversals during the current cycle, however. There is a nagging suspicion that the market may yet have a surprise gain in store.

For that more optimistic scenario to gain credibility, the share price needs to break above 18,600p. Doing so would suggest that another advance is getting under way, with an initial target around 22,239p. If that level is overcome, our secondary target rises to 23,994p.

Reaching those levels would be significant. More intriguingly, they could open the door to what we suspect may be a much longer-term influence, centred around 26,816p.

So, despite our complete inability to understand why anyone would want to spend their spare time painting miniature warriors, perhaps there really is something to Warhammer after all.

Or perhaps — more importantly for investors — there’s something to Games Workshop that we still haven’t quite understood.

Taylor Wimpey** **LSE:VOD Vodafone** **LSE:ZOO Zoo Digital** **

Barclays PLC (LSE:BARC)  trading around 492.47p at time of writing.

As we’d hoped, the Spanish Grand Prix indeed provided an entertaining race and the new(ish) guy – Antonelli- delivered a race which must make Verstappen realise he’ll never be one of the “greats”, unable to equal or beat the Schumacher & Hamilton count of victories.  Perversely, this is liable to produce more entertainment in future races as Verstappen rarely performs fairly when under pressure.  But Barclays bank shares are certainly showing considerable cool, despite the pressure of its Blue downtrend since 2007, a trend line which has no business in effecting share prices, aside from the fact it clearly is.

The most recent three weeks has seen Barclays share price adhere to the Blue line as if it were important! This is proving a little confusing as the chart extract below highlights.

This 19 year trend line shuffle is a bit mad but, if we apply our conventional criteria, it’s apparently the share were future weakness below 484p now risks triggering reversal to an initial 475p with our secondary, if broken, a potential bottom of 453p. Hopefully achieving such a level shall also prove capable of generating a bounce.

But on a brighter note, above 500p should now trigger gains to an initial 512p with our secondary, if exceeded, calculating at a future 525p and almost certain hesitation. Things shall only become exciting in the event the share closes above 525p, strongly suggesting a breakaway from “safe” harbour of the Blue trend line has commenced as a future ambition at 564p has commenced.

Our Globally Read FTSE for FRIDAY (FTSE:UKX)

From a personal perspective, the only thing having a worse week than the FTSE has been this writer. On Monday, things started to go a bit weird, a recent diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes meaning the Pharmacist at our local GP surgery got to stab me, determined I’d be comfortable self administering the diabetes and fat bloke drug called Ozempic. While I’ve lost 2.5kg since Monday, the reason was probably due to Tuesdays Dentist appointment. A root canal treatment went wrong, when a hairline fracture in the tooth split wide open. Three teeth were removed and stitches required, creating a situation where eating has not been high on the priorities list.  But creamy mushroom soup has served the job for dinner and breakfast, along with taking far too many Ibuprofen for the pain. But keen to prove nothing was too stupid, a visit to our local Chiropodist took place on Thursday, a “slightly” ingrown big toenail needing dealt with. This twenty minutes of hell left me sitting quietly in my car, waiting ’till calm restored itself before driving home.

A lesson was learned, in future only the services of one professional “ist” shall be engaged per week as all these people seem determined to inflict pain.

As mentioned, the FTSE has been experiencing a similar friend, probably at the hands of Analysts and Politicianists. One worry for next week comes from the Economists who are doubtless advising central banks to increase interest rates, even though the reductions experienced by the UK lagged behind everywhere else. For instance, Europe and NZ recently increased their rates to 2.75%, still substantially below the UK’s current 3.75% which is damaging the entire country. The rate decision is at noon next Thursday.

Things are not looking great for the FTSE on Friday, movement below 10,592 looking capable of triggering reversal to an initial 10,555 points. Should such a level break, our longer term secondary calculates down at 10,515 and perhaps a bounce. But overall, the market is already looking dangerously attracted to a future bottom at 10,413 points.

However, there is a faint light shining in the misery of darkness. For the FTSE, should the index clamber above 10,673 points, we can hope for gains to an initial 10,699 points with our secondary, if exceeded, at 10,777 points and an urgent need to revisit our tea leaves.

On a brighter note, it’s the usually entertaining Spanish Grand Prix this weekend and hopefully solid food shall be on our menu. Have a good weekend.
