- ☰ 'Continuation' Buy Idea From The Watchlist: Target +R235
Research Notes January 2026 > https://www.unum.capital/post/rjan2026 Trade Local & Global Financial Markets with Unum Capital. To get started, email tradingdesk@unum.co.za This share is on my watchlist as a 'Continuation Buy Idea'. In the short term, the share is consolidating after an ultra short term burst of momentum. Over the long term, the share has underperformed the broader market. A trigger via an igniting bar on the the weekly (or daily) chart would set the share up for a change of trend. Here, a weekly close above R193 or, if it continues to trade sideways over the next few weeks, a close above the downward trend line. A weekly close below R172 would temporarily invalidate the idea. The share is Exxaro Resources (EXX) Last Close: 18749c Note: During Q2 2025, we published Exxaro Resources as a medium term buy idea at R146/148 with the target of R185 being reached.

Previous Post ( Monday, 23 September 2024) : Retailers Have Rallied. Here's What The Data Says - Pre-Market A global rate cutting cycle including action from the SARB has support strong moves in retail shares.
