The upward trend could come to support St. James's Place in the coming sessions.

The current share quote shows a +17% potential to reach the consensus average target price. The company’s Surperformance rating underline the profitability, the earnings quality and the positive EPS estimates revisions.

Technically, the share keeps a bullish trend in the long term. Nevertheless, the recent tests of the GBp 994.5 resistance brought back the stock near its short term support. As weekly moving averages remain well oriented, this threshold could act as a stepping stone for an upcoming surge.

Consequently, investors may open a long position at current prices and target a reversal toward the GBp 933.5 pivot point. A stop loss order should be set at GBp 843.
