15. Settlement as of 24/12/2010, at 5:45 p.m. Marks & Sp. fractionally up, achieving a modest profit of +0.43%. The day started well for the stock, which approached the previous session's peaks with a first price of 376.2, and stayed on a plateau during the entire session. The weekly analysis of the security and the FTSE 100 shows Marks & Sp. losing relative strength against the index. Status and Trend Analysis While the medium-term scenario still looks bearish, the short-term structure shows some promising signs, with support at 372 holding strong. The positive movement in the short term indicates a potential reversal of the bearish trend, with the possibility of prices flirting with the key resistance level of 378. Thus there is a good chance of the bullish phase continuing towards the 384 level. Risk Analysis The security's level of risk is currently under control, with daily volatility at 1.641, whilst daily volume remains high, having risen above the 1-month volume moving average in the last session. Marks & Sp.'s stable movement suggests that institutional investors have an interest in the security, to the extent that they can exert a high degree of control over its trend, which appears orderly and without strong fluctuations.
