Breville: Struggling

This story features BREVILLE GROUP LIMITED. For more info SHARE ANALYSIS: BRG

By Michael Gable 

The S&P/ASX 200 Index continues to trade in a range. We noted last week that it was at the lower end and therefore a chance to buy, but it has given back some of those gains yesterday as the trading range starts to tighten up.

As we have mentioned previously, the tightening range is a positive for the longer-term as it means we are likely to be getting close to breaking out of this range and the market can start trending again.

The next general catalyst for markets will be the FOMC interest rate decision later this week.

US yields across all time frames look set to spike higher and everyone seems to be focused on that, but it is also worth keeping an open mind for any yield breakout to fail.

That would be a very telling sign on where longer-term rates are heading and that would be positive for equities, if that were to occur.

In this week's report, we have a chart of Breville Group ((BRG)).

Over the past year, BRG was forming an ascending triangle with a level or resistance in the mid $22's.

It managed to break above that in early August, but it has failed to kick on. It is now retesting that old resistance line, but short-term price action is weak.

We wouldn't be surprised if it struggles to gain support here. If that is the case, then we would be looking for levels closer to $21.

Investors looking to get into BRG can therefore be patient for lower levels.
