Cellular Goods, a Valentine gift?

With Valentines Day approaching, we wonder if Cellular Goods shall reap any benefit from their cannabis lotions and creams. Recent findings reveal substantial skin improvements with the application of CBD products. There are few gestures more romantic than saying to a loved one;  “Your face is bloated, sagging and looked old. Here’s a cream!”

All kidding aside, it’s easy to suspect CBD products will join many beauty regimes, especially as they actually work. From a personal standpoint, I’ve been using Oil of Ulay for nearly 30 years and can confirm it doesn’t work. I’m still as ugly now as I was then… Quite seriously, the last 10 years brought a need for moisturisers and skin care products, due to repeated chemotherapy. All the needles and lines leave substantial damage, provoking a repeated fight as nurses require undamaged skin to allow them to continue their routine abuse. Medical plumbing which once could be attached to the back of a hand gradually migrates up the arm, the wounds not healing in time for the next session. Then the nurse discovers you’ve another arm! While thankfully now receiving treatment (very successfully) which requires none of the invasive drips and transfusions, if I were, I’d be eager to try Cellular Goods CBD infused products.

 

Last time we reviewed Cellular Goods in October 2021, we appear to have gotten everything right but now, it’s all going horribly wrong for some reason. It’s interesting we’d proposed a potential high of 10.6p, the share price cheerfully exceeding this for 7 sessions toward the end of November but there was a crucial detail which is noteworthy. We often bang on about the need for a price to actually CLOSE above our target levels and in the case of LSE:CBX, despite reaching 11.6p, the highest the price closed at was 10.66p on November 30th. It’s silly to get excited at the extra 6/100th’s of a penny as we round our numbers down. The result is a perfect example of the need for targets to be exceeded, before making assumptions the door is open for a positive future. We’ve shown an inset on the chart which clearly highlights the drama at the 10.6p level last year.

By failing to exceed our 10.6p calculation, the first box was ticked in a scenario which allowed for potential weakness. When the share price managed to flutter below the Red uptrend at the end of last month, the 2nd box pointing at continued weakness was ticked and now, we must concede there’s a real problem. Should the share price now manage to wander below 5p, it risks reversal down to an initial 4.1p with secondary, if broken, at a hopeful bouncy bottom of 1.9p. To escape this mess, the share requires exceed Blue on the chart, presently around 7.6p as this should promote recovery to 9.5p. Above such a level and we’ll take another look at future potentials.

Who knows, perhaps the share will be a surprise Valentines day gift?

*** End of “Updated Today” comments on shares.

Cineworld Group Plc and the yellow brick road.

#Gold #SP500 The exterior visuals of our local cinema, here in our bit of Argyll, tend allow speculation as to whether they still show “Gone With The Wind”. From an exterior glance, the building fails to achieve any form of modernity, while failing to display a single sign of architectural creativity. Inside, it’s thankfully a different story, incredibly comfortable, despite a ticket booth which always reminds of the “Back to the Future” movies for some reason.

Now, as an early vaccine adopter and recently armed with the 2nd booster shot for Covid, it’s tempting to visit the cinema again as some reasonable titles are being released. Plus, there’s always a slight feeling of guilt at failing to support a local business, an ancient cinema which has survived without being part of a chain, yet still manages to charge absurd prices for goodies from the foyer. And this, of course, brings us to Cineworld and the very last sentence of our report in July last year (link), when we mentioned;

For now, we suspect it intends head toward 44p, hopefully failing to break such a level and giving a fairly strong level to rebound from.

On December 13th last year, the price closed the session at 44.13p and we sat back, eating popcorn and waiting for a bounce. Alas, the next day it broke below the critical 44p level, shuffling down to 43.8p briefly in a movement which justified a Spock from Star trek raised eyebrow. This was a small danger sign, something like a little itch in your nose which precedes an enormous sneeze. Just a day later, the sneeze happened with the share price being gapped down to 33p at the open. The market clearly had other ideas for the direction Cineworld were due to take.

 

There are a couple of small points which are perhaps noteworthy. Firstly, there’s the Blue trend line on the chart, a line the share price has being paying close attention to this year. This innocent looking line dates back to 2017, an era when Cineworld traded at 700p. Secondly, when a share price reacts to such a trend, there’s an implication of the potential forces which may become apparent, should the price manage to close a session above Blue. We’re not suggesting any sort of recovery to 700p but experience has taught jumps upward tend be flamboyant, in circumstances where the starting point for a share trend is significantly higher. As Cineworld are currently trading around 1/20th of their high, quite a lot of force could be with it…

To dwell on the current potential downsides, below 33p threatens reversal to 28p next, hopefully with a proper bounce. If broken, our longer term secondary calculates at 17p and “ultimate” bottom, the level below which we run out of numbers. Should the 17p level make a guest appearance, perhaps a Glass Floor shall form as this visual matches prior lows from 2020.

 

Thankfully, there are sufficient reasons for a “However” as above 40p looks capable of triggering recovery to an initial 54p with secondary, if bettered, working out at a longer term 78p. This is an early example of the possibilities for strength, thanks to the price once trading substantially higher. We’ve given a few teasers above this level on the chart below but realistically, we shall prefer revisit if the 78p level ever stars in this lots future.

 

Many thanks to the nice folk who find an advert worthy of visiting on this page. Keeps us in Taylors Lazy Sunday coffee beans!

Will Lloyds Banking Group meet expectations?

#Brent #DAX We wonder if the recent little hiccup with Facebook share price, among others to be fair, share prove emblematic of a wider problem. For quite some time, we’ve thought many tech stocks – and some pharma’s – have enjoyed too great a success, share prices going higher, far higher, than logically sane. But somewhere in the world, there’s a market where share prices tend opt for boredom, the concept of flamboyant behaviour suspected to be a thing of the past.

Obviously, we’re looking at the FTSE 100, home of undervalued but respectable shares. The UK’s retail banks, long ignored, may even be poised for some time in the sun, hopefully seen as a safer haven against the hysterical behaviour exhibited in the US market place against the likes of Moderna, Netflix, and recently, Meta (aka Facebook). With the likes of Barclays, the share price is already starting to look interesting, something especially clear when viewing the company performance on Wall St. Lloyds Bank share price, is not yet copying Barclays on Wall St, presently trading around $2.76US but requiring above $3.43US to tell us to anticipate some real movement. Such a trigger looks capable of provoking a cycle to $5.85US eventually.

 

To return to a UK perspective and Sterling share price valuations for Lloyds, if we rely on trend lines, the immediate Blue downtrend suggests the share needs above 60p currently to promote joy for the future, ideally triggering a surge to an initial 65p with secondary, if bettered, a longer term 77p. What surprises us currently are two very different formula, both of which point to the immediate movement cycle heading to 58.5p as a major point of interest. Generally speaking, when a bunch of arguments produce similar target levels for a share, it takes something quite dramatic for such a target to be avoided. As a result, despite Lloyds bouncing around in the lower 50’s, we’ve considerable hope sufficient force will appear to drive it upward to our 58.6p.

We suspect the price shall only require closure above this 58.5p target level to signify our bigger picture ambition of 77p assuming a degree of reality. For everything to start going horribly wrong, the share price currently needs weaken below 47p.

 

Finally, and absolutely nothing to do with Lloyds Bank, for the first time in decades, my weekend was hijacked by a brilliant book, a biography by someone called Sonia Purnell. It’s called “A Woman of No Importance” and was about someone called Virginia Hall, described as WWII’s most dangerous spy. An utterly fascinating ‘read’. (Available as an audiobook)

Will the FTSE for FRIDAY have a party?

FTSE for FRIDAY (FTSE:UKX)

With all the bad stuff going on in the world, often only mitigated by the comic relief provided by the UK’s Prime Minister, we decided it may be worth going back in time and looking at how the market has recovered from previous trauma. The Tech Crash, the Financial Crash, both followed a similar playbook for recovery and we’re curious as to whether the Covid Crash shall mimic a similar path.

Currently, there are certainly plenty of reasons to be nervous. For instance, at time of writing, the Nasdaq is down -4.6% and also, Germany and France managed a day of reversals below -1.5%. For a change, the FTSE proved less sluggish, ‘only’ achieving -0.7% down for the day. As we’ve seen the FTSE often outperform other markets in gain strength during January, it appears reasonable to assume the FTSE remains in a recovery cycle, intending to catch up with the rest of the world. Whereas other markets appear to be experiencing retreats from all time highs. It’s all very strange…

By way of experiment, we decided to apply recovery strengths given in previous cycles in an attempt to figure out where the FTSE intends head. Always assuming Russia refrains from taking a holiday in Ukraine and the UK PM continues to wear an invisible big red clown nose. The consensus calculates with an initial target level around 8,100 points with secondary, if bettered, being a little more argumentative. When we apply the Tech Crash model, our secondary calculates at 8,355 points as providing a level where we should anticipate FTSE fireworks next. However, with the model from the Financial Crash – along with the 2016 Brexit Crash – we can now work out an eventual 8,860 as the level where the FTSE should experience real volatility. But amongst all this, we remains truly surprised at the broad agreement of the FTSE currently viewed as heading to the 8,100 level.

It certainly feels silly, proposing a further 500 points for the UK against a backdrop of other markets experiencing serious volatility. We can hope.

As for the FTSE for FRIDAY, despite international hysterics, we’re feeling strangely hopeful for some near term gains. To be blunt, while the market closed at 7528 on Thursday, we hope “they” gap the index up above 7565 at the open on Friday. If “they” opt to spike the market up rather than a gap, things could be unpleasant next week.

Working on the basis the market is gapped above 7565 at the open, we suspect a cycle to 7600 shall commence. If bettered, our near term secondary calculates at 7625 points. And if things get really frothy, the index could easily charge uphill to an impossible 7655 eventually! If triggered, the tightest stop level looks like Thursdays closing price of 7528 points.

 

Our alternate scenario demands weakness below 7528 to risk triggering reversal to an initial 7499 points. If broken, our secondary (and hopefully bounce point) works out at 7,448 points.

Have a good weekend. Now just 44 days until the Bahrain Grand Prix. And I’m getting my 4th Covid jag on Saturday!

Commerzbank AG (XE:CBK), some reasonable potentials

#DAX #SP500

Our weekly dip into Europe revealed Commerzbank are starting to become very interesting! The second largest in Germany, claiming to be active in more than 50 countries along with providing around 1/3rd of Germany’s trade finance. Unusually, for a company which has been trading since 1870, a glance at their history proved pretty much as expected with the usual corruption allegations along with some record fines. In other words, a bank…

The company shares were rated amongst the most active in Germany on Wednesday, along with a consensus technical rating as a “strong buy”. As a result, we approached their share price movements already armed with scepticism as, they’re a bank and thus, not worthy of any trust! However, the share price certainly appears on the edge of doing something fairly useful, even though we suspect some patience shall be required.

 

Visually, the immediate situation appears mildly encouraging with the share price closing at a new high, since breaking above the Blue downtrend. Conventionally, this should justify some hope if it were not for the cluster of highs (circled) back in 2019. At this point, our inclination is to become a little pedantic as, the price closing at 8.09€, it matched this little circle, creating an expectation of a Glass Ceiling forming around this level. Thankfully though, we’d hope any hesitation shall be temporary as the share price currently only needs trade above 8.25€ to hopefully enter a recovery cycle to an initial 10.8€. If bettered, we can calculate a longer term secondary up at 13.5€.

We’re a very strong suspicion an issue awaits at the 13.5 level as this matches, repeatedly, the highest level the share price has achieved since financial markets self destructed back in 2009. Significant longer term price recovery demands the share actually close above this level. For now, it feels like the market is about to repeat a familiar pattern of price movements. For everything to go horribly wrong for Commerzbank, the share price needs fail below 6€.

Thanks to the bunch of folk who discovered interesting adverts on this page. It buys the (very welcome) coffee!

Rolls Royce reaching ignition point?

#FTSE #WallSt Rolls Royce share price movements are surprisingly boring, despite the company being discussed repeatedly for their recovery potentials, assuming the pandemic ever finishes. Some aviation analysts suggest by 2023 we should see aircraft return to pre-pandemic flight levels, surely a good thing for the engine maker. Additional news of the company actively exploring locations for their a nuclear reactor factory again should be creating interest.

There’s certainly something quite attractive at the concept of nuclear submarine class of reactor becoming active. In fact, if the easy route was taken and a UK’s nuclear sub moored on The Thames outside Westminster, Boris could be the first world leader to have his own ‘party sub’. However, the company share price has remained pretty stable for the last couple of years, doubtless reflecting they don’t get paid for their engines unless the aircraft are actually flying.

 

Rolls Royce share price started last year at 112p, eventually reaching a high of 150 before retreated, currently trading around 117p. Visually it’s not a pretty picture and we are trying to identify a comfortable trigger level, above which the share will find it difficult to avoid growing.

At present, above 126.5p looks quite important, our software claiming moves above this point at being capable of provoking a cycle to an initial 136p with secondary, if bettered, a slightly more useful 147p. The picture on the chart is one of almost certain hesitation at the secondary target level, given it matches the highs of last year. Only with closure above 147p shall we dare express real optimism as such a movement would be a pretty confident nudge in the right direction, taking the share price above Blue on the chart, the downtrend since 2018, and ticking a pretty major box in a movement cycle toward an eventual 235p.

 

For now, the only major fly in the ointment comes from a price movement last week, one which saw the share price dip below Red on the chart to 111p. If this was an early warning of impending trouble, below 111p now calculates with the potential of reversal to an initial 99p with secondary, if broken, at 69p and hopefully a solid bouncy bottom.

THG Plc and running for the hills?

#Gold #SP500 We managed to waste everyone’s time with our review of THG last October. We’d identified a trigger level for a miracle recovery at 369p but alas, the best the share achieved was 362p with the price falling faster than the UK PM’s credibility since. We’ve had a few emails asking us to update our view and there are a few details now worthy of serious consideration.

With international lockdowns easing, along with a likelihood of reduced earnings for on-line organisations, the company didn’t impart confidence to the market by announcing profit margins for 2021 would be below expectations, along with a comment regarding 2022 being more challenging, when compared to the same period in 2021. While this is essentially confirming everyone knows what a bears toilet habits in the woods are, the market continues to be less than impressed.

However, the company also complain they’ve been the target of a “pretty aggressive short attack” and claim to have presented a dossier to the FCA, an organisation well known for protecting investors and ensuring share prices don’t suffer. Said no-one ever. But from our perspective, the share price now finds itself in a ridiculous position, one fraught with danger.

 

The Big Picture had a major problem at 248p. Our software cannot calculate an “ultimate bottom” below such a level and by November last year, the share price broke below. As a result, from a Big Picture perspective, we’re supposed to report the share is on track to minus 25p, obviously impossible and also unlikely given the brief period the company has been listed. But for a share which was trading above 8 quid last year, the fall from grace has been quite vile.

From an immediate perspective, below 118p risks a visit to 98p, perhaps a level from which a bounce can be hoped but it must be remembered we cannot now calculate a bottom.

 

If there’s going to be any kind of miracle, the share (presently trading around 130p) needs exceed 142p to ideally trigger some gains in the direction of an initial 159p. If bettered, we can calculate a surprisingly confident looking 179p as our secondary. At this level, things become quite strange as we can currently provide a third target level of 230p. This is also pretty close to the maximum drop target we’d previously wondered about and visually, there’s certainly an implication of a waiting glass ceiling, should such a target level make a guest appearance in the future.

We suspect this shall probably end up experiencing some sort of bounce before the 98p level appears.
