Bottom chart 'fast stochastic'

One of just a few holdings I still have.

Brandes have reduced to below 3 % !
That must be taken as a good sign for RSA for if the shares had been placed on the market then the market has absorbed a lot of stock without a large drop.
The other alternative is that the stock has gone to another holder...good to see that, Brandes are not takeover specialists, new holder may be.

Will update the chart, the earlier one show RSA has been to 5......only sets me off dreaming... LOL

Morning opto, this still looks good to me.

Morning Goal, yes this chart looks better :-)
Next challenge is to get past the previous highs, may not be too long, that Brandes holding does appear to have been placed somewhere.
Firm again this morning in a dull market.

RSA following the market the last few weeks, given a firmer FTSE with the interims due on the 10th Aug we could see the sp pushing 140p. Without undue shocks and surprises maybe we will break 140 and push on to new (recent) highs. Must be realistic, can't see us getting back to the 'old days' highs :-)
Good luck patient holders.

Still in.

I have to say that RSA is looking very Strong now.

Still in .

Breakout time.

Maybe RSA is a target -- not Aviva.

Was rumoured a few months ago MM but think it just a change of sentiment towards RSA coupled with stronger fundamentals which is currently pushing them along.

The last time RSA reached 160p was July 2003, if we go above 160p the next resistance is 260p.Wouldn't that be nice.
