See link below for previous analysis. I have updated my preferred wave count and it has significant implications. The new count shows the decline from 33519 to 11079 as a complete zig zag pattern. Wave (A) is a impulse with distinguishable five waves. Wave (C) is also an impulse though more simple in structure. I am looking at the advance from 11079 to 22166...

I still maintain my long-term bearish view on Astral as per my previous analysis, link below. Stock do not go down in a straight line and even with weak fundamentals and a strong bear trend, there will be bounces/corrections to the upside. Astral stock has found trendline support at 14896 and has broken above the short-term resistance trendline. As the stock...
On 21 November 2022, with the release and publishing of Astral’s year end results for the year ended 30 September 2022, the Group strongly cautioned the market that Astral was expecting market conditions to deteriorate, with record high feed input costs, devastating levels of load shedding and the general decay of municipal infrastructure continuing to impact...
Astral expects a 90% drop in earnings as their input and feeding costs exceeds the sale price of chicken...Well the chart says it all. It doesn't look pretty. It's trading well below both the 50 and 200 day moving averages and I can't see it getting any better. I can see this stock going down back to 135.00/140.00 where there is significant support. I might even...
JSE:ARL printed a 52 week high but the stock is at or coming to an area of value. I have a long position and waiting to see what happens at this level. I would like to see the stock move above R220/share, where I'll add onto the current position.
It was announced yesterday that government will be dropping import tariffs on poultry for a period of 12 months to help fight the rising cost of chicken. Let's not forget, that the tariffs were put in place to protect local producers against cheaper imports. The latest development leaves them with very little to no place to hide. I suspect our local producers like...
JSE:ARL has reached a 52 week high, with a decent amount of volume. Markets are up down but this is a bullish setup. Every setup must be accompanied by a stop loss.
ARL seem to setting up for another move higher, potentially to 225. Bull flag technical pattern developing.

The market liked the trading update last week, EPS expected to be up 100%. The R189 resistance held a bit of a fight. I suspect from state bulls. Close Friday with a bullish engulfing candle that engulfs the entire week. I have a short term target at R220

(Also see, TBS & AVI)...With SA retail once again brought to it's knees, we do have some (unfortunate) opportunities, especially with our food producers. With supply chains disrupted and store shelves empty, we can only expect the "re-stocking" to benefit our brand owners and food producers. This is a buying opportunity for unusually high demand when the looting...
