AIMS AMP Capital Industrial REIT: Dragoning.

The latest substantial shareholder of this REIT, Dragon Pacific Assets Limited, has increased its stake in the REIT again today. Its stake increased from 7.21 % To 11.39 % and it now owns 167,010,000 units.

I have not been able to find any information on Dragon Pacific Assets Limited and I am very curious as to its background.  I am also very curious regarding the identities of the sellers. The same reason has been given for the buy up as before: Acquisition for investment purposes.

The REIT closed at 23c, the upper end of its range and with it going XD tomorrow, I would be very surprised if this long term resistance could be overcome. Then again, never say never.

Noble: Downtrend.

Noble has been in a downtrend since the middle of March. This downtrend is intact.  With MFI forming lower highs, which suggests a lowering demand, and OBV dipping gradually, suggesting consistent distribution, the technical picture is rather negative.  The MACD is in negative territory and has just completed a bearish crossover with the signal line. Momentum is negative and it is not improving.

The counter is nowhere near oversold and price could sink lower if there is no catalyst strong enough to turn market sentiments positive. Price is currently resting on immediate support at  $1.66.  Immediate resistance is at $1.70 as provided by the 20dMA and candlestick resistance. 

Noble to sell coal mine stake to Gloucester, Australian says, for as much as A$300 million ($370 million).
