Braemar shares about to sail north?

This share has held onto most of its post-Covid recovery, although progress is currently slow. However, with results out today, independent analyst Alistair Strang looks at potential for that to change.

Braemar (LSE:BMS) experienced a few months of share suspension due to an historical accounting anomaly which was felt would affect their published accounts. Matters have been resolved and the shares started trading again a few days ago. They published half-year results today, and their share price certainly looks poised for some action.

At time of writing, the share is trading at 290p, needing above 292p to hopefully prompt recovery to an initial 310p and a challenge against the downtrend since 2014.

To be honest, this is one of these occasions where we’d be delighted to witness the share price gapped upward at the open of trade, creating a rather perfect “Gap Down/Gap Up” situation, one which should prove capable of provoking future movements to 342p, with our longer term influence seen as coming from a future 388p and some probable hesitation.

Similar to the weather in Braemar, this is one of these occasions where anything could happen in the next few hours! The price would need to wander below 230p (Red) to justify anxiety.
