ALGO Buy Signal For Suncorp

Our ALGO engine triggered a buy signal for Suncorp into yesterday’s ASX close at $14.20.

This “higher low” pattern is referenced to the intra-day low posted on June 14th at $13.70.

Shares of SUN have dropped over 10% during the last month as the potential for fines and increased regulations from the Royal Commission have weighed on both banking and insurance stocks.

However, the technical picture is beginning to look oversold. As such, we consider SUN a buy/write opportunity near the key support level of $13.60.

ALGO Update: A Buy/Write Strategy For Cimic

Our ALGO engine has been long CIM since June 1st at $40.00.

Since then the share price has risen over 25% and traded at a 10-month high of $51.64 last week.

In addition to posting better-then-expected profit results back in July, CIM has also secured several mining services agreements including a recent $420 million contract extension with Antofagasta Minerals in Chile.

On balance, we see the stock trading in a high-level consolidation pattern over the medium-term.

As such, we consider CIM a buy/write candidate with reasonable upside potential and increased cash flow from the sold call options.
