ALGO Sell Signal For NAB

Posted on | by Todd | Leave a Comment on ALGO Sell Signal For NAB

Our ALGO engine triggered a sell signal for NAB into yesterday’s ASX close at $30.40.

This “lower high” pattern is relative to the November 8th high of $31.85.

NAB posted an 18-month low of $28.05 on February 8th. The banking sector, in general, has had a respectable recovery over the last three weeks.

However, the internal momentum indicators now suggest that the local banking names will trade lower over the near-term, taking out the February lows.

Newcrest Is Approaching The Buy Zone

Posted on | by Todd | Leave a Comment on Newcrest Is Approaching The Buy Zone

Shares of NCM are down over 2% in early trade as Spot Gold prices traded 1% lower to $1317.00 in the NY session.

Selling in Spot Gold was triggered by comments from new FED chief Jerome Powell who said that the US central bank could lift rates up to 4 time during 2018.

We added NCM to our model portfolio on December 13th at $22.10.

Technical indicators suggest  solid support levels in the $20.80/90 area.

We estimate that price in NCM will correspond to Spot Gold near $1300.00 per ounce and will look to enter long positions near $20.80.

Caltex – FY17 Earnings

Posted on | by Leon Hinde | Leave a Comment on Caltex – FY17 Earnings

Caltex FY17 earnings came in at the top end of the estimated range, at $620 million.

Caltex will announce the outcome of their asset review at the end of June.

We expect to see commentary around divestment of station freehold land, which should be a net positive for share holders.

FY19 outlook for revenue is 2% growth to $23 billion, EBIT $930 million , EPS $2.40 and DPS $1.20, placing the stock on a forward yield of 3.5%.

We consider CTX fully- valued at the current price range.

After buying at lower prices and selling the May $36 calls for $1.00 credit, we’ll be pleased to collect the upcoming dividend of 61 cents on March 12th, and then deliver the stock in May.
