Far Eastern markets inevitably suffered badly pulling the rug out from under key markets, including London. After duly testing 5200, the FT-SE fell back to support at 5000. Volume was thin reflecting a lack of interest ahead of the calendar year-end. At this time, look for continued support around 5000 with the upsi 2/4 limited to 5190-5200.

Interim results, dui to bj announced later this month, should give a good indication of whether the company is being affected by growing evidence of a slow-down in retail sales. The share is oversold. Look for support around 440-450p before bouncing to 490- 500p. The long term outlook is 3/4 deteriorating. Sell into strength.

The recommended strategy was to buy the share in the low 400ps looking for a target of 500p. The share duly pjrformjd according to plan. It is still early days but there is evidence that the share is preparing to move decisively above 500p which would give a long term target of 590-600p. The share is overbought in the short term. Look for resistance at 500p 4/4 support re-emerging around 460-470p. December 13/14 UT Panel Annuities TaxIndjx Main Menu
