Our Famous FTSE for FRIDAY (FTSE:UKX) trading around 10,792 at time of writing.
There are just 119 days until Christmas Day. To be fair, counting down “the days” isn’t something we’re guilty of – except for an end to the days of horror which is August on the stock market. Even reviewing the price of Crude Oil has become an exercise in futility, the markets clearly opting to keep it effectively trapped in place until something positive or negative actually takes place. Perhaps Mr Trump shall decide to rename the Straits of Hormuz something like “Trump Straits” in memory of his fantastic success in destabilising the region, pushing oil profits to new surprise levels.
We shall not be surprised, if September brings some surprise reversals on the price of Brent, potentially to around the $77 dollar level, if only because the markets are bored at the lack of activity…
As for the FTSE, we shall not be aghast if the market opts to end the month with a bit of a squeak. Currently, weakness below 10,770 looks very capable of provoking reversal down to an initial 10,731 points with our secondary, if broken, a considerably less likely 10,679 points. Visually, there is nothing currently hinting this secondary could be viable, especially as it would dump the UK index in a zone where the Big Picture is presenting a long term bottom at 10,413 as possible, this being a target which does make some visual sense.
If this drop triggers, the tightest stop is wide at 10,827 points.
Our alternate, more positive, scenario covers what’s possible, if the UK nudges above 10,827 points. In such a game plan, we can calculate the hope of movement to an initial 10,866 points with our secondary, if bettered, at 10,694 points along with very probable hesitation.
Have a good weekend. Just 9 days until the next Grand Prix from Italy, sometimes worth missing.

Happy Central Asia Metals Plc, trading around 181 at the time of writing.
and it bounced from 131 on June 8th of this year… This is the end of a sentence we didn’t give, when we reviewed Central Asia Metals back in March of this year. Instead, we actually wrote the words shown below, managing to CLOSE at 131.2p on June 8th. Despite the share price falling below 131p within the next couple of weeks, the all important first surge to our target level bounced a tiny amount above our target levels. We’ve all sorts of daft theories as to why this happens after an initial event which can be ignored, parking our ideas about Flat Earth Theory, Net Zero logic, BBC impartiality, along with an outlandish idea UK politicians may have a spine and functional brain.
The last couple of sessions with
Central Asia have proven pretty good, creating a situation where above 186p should next trigger gains in the direction of an initial 195p with our “longer term” secondary, if beaten, calculating at 213p.
This sort of thing should be as useful as our little tractor proved, when the robot lawnmower decided it was allergic to grass. To be completely honest, spending 30 minutes charging around on the little red tractor was genuine fun, despite the rain. The robot lay where it had given up the ghost, losing traction in long grass with greater style than Red Bull driver Verstappen, when he decided to crash test his car without assistance from anyone else. Prior to this, we couldn’t resist the chance for a straight race between the robot and the tractor. In 1st Gear with Low Ratio selected, the robot positively leapt ahead, only out accelerated by a snail. There’s a good reason why we’ve ignored the lack of brakes on the tractor, the machine able to come to a halt simply by sliding the accelerator lever downward. Our excuse for all the garden machinery is quite simple. Using a step counter with a self propelled lawnmower revealed 2.25 miles were covered, when cutting the grass.
Our unbridled optimism for the future has an important caveat. This share price requires CLOSURE above 213p, this being the point above which we shall regard it as entering a Big Picture cycle to 241p, a price level where the visuals suggest some hesitation can be anticipated. We are far from confident about a long term path to a future 320p opening up.
On a hopefully brighter note, Thursday is supposed to start shining a light for this author. Since 2004, a pair of Reading Glasses bought from a petrol station proved sufficient for daily life, but the other day, on the motorway, there was the realisation I was awaiting an overhead sign coming into focus. This was a new thing, perhaps an early signal proper glasses were required, so an appointment with a local optician was made. They’ve warned I shall not be allowed to drive for six hours after the appointment, so it sounds like a fun day… Wonder how much booze they intend supply me with? (growing up sucks)

Anglo American Plc, trading around 4,203 at the time of writing.
We previously reviewed Anglo American back in 2023, when the price was “just” 1970p. In the intervening period, the price obviously achieved our upward targets and we forgot our intention of revisiting the company share value. And so, it has now more than doubled, a solid share above 40 quid and one which urgently needs an update as further positive potentials seem to be present.
We spent a while, surfing through AAL’s website, as always left in awe of the companies reach and operations. While they’ve embraced all the right buzzwords to establish their “green” credentials, it was a pleasure to notice AI – Artificial Intelligence – is missing from the blurb, perhaps an indicator of something thinking adding any mention of this would be over-seasoning an already impressive picture of success. And of course, we delved into Wikipedia as it’s usually a reasonable source of negative gossip, relating a decent number of scandals against long established companies such as Anglo American, a company born in 1917 in Jo’burg, South Africa.
It looks like above 4,240p should next provide a trigger point, one capable of promoting gains toward an initial 4,424p with our secondary, if bettered, calculating at 4,496p. However, it’s important we mention closure above 4,424p shall prove important from a Big Picture perspective, launching the share price into a zone where a future 5,055p works out as possible. This would indicate the possibility of a new All Time High waiting in the distant future.
Should things intend go wrong, the share price needs below 3,470p to risk triggering reversal to an initial 2,948p with our secondary, if broken, at a potential bottom of 2,517p.
We think this shall prove worth watching, if not intimidated by the 40 quid plus price tag!

Short, sharp, encouraging…. M&G Plc, trading around 348.20 at the time of writing.
Back in the days of yore, the share listing for Prudential Assurance used to drive us crackers, due to its lack of movement. As asteroid lands in the Gulf of Mexico, it kills off the dinosaur civilisation, and Prudential share price barely moved, other than grudgingly following whatever trend the market was trying to describe. Similarly, when the current UK Prime Minister was anointed, the replacement entity for Prudential Assurance, M&G Plc have barely paid attention to the newest captain on deck. A comedian recently quipped; “Instead of replacing Captains at the tiller, why doesn’t the UK try steering in a different direction?”. While it provoked a smile, the sentiment actually makes a lot of sense, the never ending cascade of politicians adhering to policies which don’t work is getting absurd, a situation just as silly as the BoE adhering to a failed monetary policy with Interest Rate manipulation.
But returning to M&G, the share price has slavishly followed the historical pattern delineated by Prudential Assurance, a movement of a few pence providing an exciting day for their share price. Back in 2009, a chum bought some Prudential shares, opting to dump them a couple of years later as the share price had “only” doubled since the market lows. In the interest of full disclosure, he believed the financial sector as a whole would experience sharp recovery, his purchase of Lloyds and Barclays effectively trapping his funds for a long term holiday. It’s amusing to note, now he’s back “in the money”, rather than buying a new Range Rover, he’s opted to take delivery of one of the Temu (pound shop) versions of the classic Range Rover shape, a machine called a Jaecoo which is being described as extremely boring. Inevitably, he shall be in the market for a clapped out MGB or perhaps an old motorcycle anytime soon, attempting to recapture the fun of driving. He has, at least, finally managed to factor in the cost of maintenance when buying anything for prestige purposes. (A chum binned his Bentley Continental, shortly after the fright of paying for a service! Perhaps Temu shall provide a Bentley knock off.)
While M&G Plc enjoy a fairly dull share price with daily movements usually measured in single digits, we cannot ignore the fact it achieved our historical target of 305p. exceeded it slightly and now is exploring a brave new world for the longer term. If this is indeed the case, above 360 should apparently trigger movements to an initial 383p with our secondary, if exceeded, at a future 412p and some probable hesitation.
Our alternate, hysterical scenario, suggests weakness below 340p shall trigger reversal to an initial 327p. Our longer term secondary, if broken, calculates at a future 313p.
All things considered, we are inclined to optimism.

Many thanks for taking the time to read this and good luck for today. Please feel free to mention us after something goes right!
Barclays Plc, trading around 492 at the time of writing.
It turns out everything isn’t perfect with robot mowers, especially in our part of the country. The issue comes from rain and the fact we’re not supposed to let the robot go outside and play in the rain. And the other issue comes from wet grass. If the lawn was flat, there would be no real problem but with a 15 degree slope of wet grass, the robot struggles to go uphill and the chunky tyres quickly clog up. This makes Scotland a problem, where it can easily rain for 7 days at a time, leaving the ground soggy for a few days until the next rain storm comes in. During this time, grass eagerly does its thing, growing fast and now is at the point where we need to cut the grass before the robot can do its job, keeping the lawn short.
We’d just about sold our little red tractor, when the penny dropped. The robot mower will only be of any use during Scotlands theoretical May/June summer but the rest of the year will still require riding around on the tractor, every now and then. And of course, the real gripe comes from the fact I’ve not bothered welding repairs on the cutting deck attachment for the tractor, spending Sunday cutting and shaping metal, then exhibiting my incompetence with an electric welding plant and welding rods. The salt atmosphere tends make life difficult for exposed metals, hence the “matter of fact” ownership of a welding plant and associated toys. Thankfully, there’s another toy called an angle grinder which smoothes all the sins inflicted by someone with few welding skills.
Unfortunately, an angle grinder will not cure Barclays issues, their share price continuing its adherence to “will I stay or will I go!”. A rigid fascination with the Blue downtrend since 2007, a nineteen year old trend which shouldn’t be affecting the bank share price – but as the chart inserts show, does…
The insert showing Closing Prices is the problem one. Barclays share price has now closed – very slightly – below the trend line from 2007. Our software calculates the line is currently at 492p and it looks like the market noticed the unwanted initiative, taking the share up to a Closing Price of 492.6p. It’s always faintly reassuring when this sort of thing happens, hinting at a desire by the market to avoid descent into chaos. Unfortunately, the situation now suggests weakness below 484.85 threatens reversal still to 453 with our secondary, if broken, at 420p. However, the little blip returning the share price above the Blue trend gives 0.6p worth of considerable hope. It may not mean much but it’s fascinating how often silly little signals like this become relevant.
If things intend perform in accordance with this “0.6p of hope”, the immediate situation suggests above 518p should make an attempt at a lift to an initial 539p with our secondary, if exceeded, at an astounding 686p.
Interesting times ahead, we think.

Our super popular FTSE for FRIDAY, trading around 10,748 at the time of writing.
We often remind how important it is to zoom and review things from a Big Picture perspective. And the FTSE is now displaying one of our favourite “charty” examples, the market creating a very visible horizontal trend since 1999. What’s quite interesting from the FTSE example occurred in 2015 (circled), the market proving the horizontal trend could be exceeded, giving (from our perspective) a pretty reliable signal things could become useful. By June of 2015, it almost felt like the index had realised what was about to happen, introducing panic reversal which didn’t last. In early 2016, the market once again exceeded the Blue horizontal trend, achieving a higher high.
For a few years, things looked quite jolly until 2020 collided with the world, the artificial market drops introduced by Covid-19 and the incompetence of politicians everywhere. By 2022, once again the FTSE was enjoying Higher Highs and this time, the index has simply kept going.
What has surprised us – quite a lot – comes from our core Big Picture logic, a series of arguments which present 10,620 as a “maximum top”, the price level beyond which we are not supposed to be able to calculate. As the zoomed in chart extract highlights, our theoretical 10,620 looks like the calculation was probably correct, the index value spending this year bouncing around at the target level, even managing to close above it a few times. This looks significant, indicating the index is liable to continue heading upward at some point.
This is one of these things you may wish to print out an save. Should the FTSE continue adhering to our dodgy arithmetic rules established since 2015, it is now the case where movement above 10,904 points should trigger further growth to 11,171 points with our secondary, if beaten, at another “top” which now works out at 11,463 points. If this scenario triggers, the tightest stop loss level calculates at 10,800 points.
Of course, we can throw in an alternate scenario if any attempt is made to slow down the growth cycle. As a result, if the index drops below 10,670 points, it risks triggering reversal down to an initial 10,560 points with our secondary, if broken, at 10,423 points and visually, a strong potential for a bounce. Perhaps this may play out during the next couple of weeks until the grown ups return from holiday by the 2nd week of September, when things tend pick up again.
Have a good weekend. It’s the Belgian GP which can be quite fun, especially if it rains. Here in Argyll, apparently we face drought conditions as there’s a risk no rain will fall during the next 3 days…
