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<\/strong>\u00a0 Central Asia Metals<\/b><\/span> back in March of this year. Instead, we actually wrote the words shown below, managing to CLOSE at 131<\/b>.2p<\/b> on June 8th. Despite the share price falling below 131p<\/b> 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.<\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

The last couple of sessions with<\/p>\n

Central Asia<\/b> <\/span> have proven pretty good, creating a situation where above 186p should next trigger gains in the direction of an initial 195p<\/b> with our “longer term” secondary, if beaten, calculating at 213p<\/b>. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

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

Our unbridled optimism for the future has an important caveat. This share price requires CLOSURE<\/b> above 213p<\/b>, this being the point above which we shall regard it as entering a Big Picture cycle to 241p<\/b>, 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<\/b> opening up.<\/span><\/p>\n

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…\u00a0 Wonder how much booze they intend supply me with? (growing up sucks)<\/span><\/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
