3 ASX Players on Investors’ Radar- MEI, WBT, VMS 

 

Meteoric Resources NL (ASX: MEI)

MEI was incorporated in 2004 and is based in West Perth, Australia. The company is engaged in the exploration of minerals primarily Cobalt, Diamond, Gold and Silver deposits. The projects are spread across Brazil, Canada, Western Australia, and Northern Territory. The market capital of the company stands at $69.22 million at a share price of $0.052. 

Fundamental Highlights- Recently the company announced updates related to its various projects on account of drilling and finding of minerals across Brazil out of which a big quantity of High-Grade Epithermal Gold deposits was indicated 286,000t @ 17.0 g/t Au for 156,000 ounces AU and a similar big chunk of Gold-Copper deposits were inferred. The company failed to attract any cash receipts from the customers for the three straight quarters ending on 31st March 2021, resulting in the net cash outflow from operations to $1.29 million for the 3Q FY21. The cash and cash equivalent balance declined to $5.23 million on 31st March 2021 as compared to the $6.4 million on 31st December 2020.

Technical Analysis- The stock is currently in the downtrend forming lower highs and lower lows since the start of the current year. The prices are currently hovering near the crucial support zone of $0.045 - $0.042, which should be respected in due course for the stock to resume any uptrend in the near term. The relative strength index is placed at 46.53 which is in the middle range of the zone, lacking a strong conviction towards any trend formation. The 21 Days Simple Moving Average is also keeping in tandem with the closing stock prices at $0.052, thereby dictating any trend confirmation in tear term. For the stock to resume any uptrend, the crucial resistance of $0.062 should be taken off the charts.

With the lack of operating income, volatile commodity prices, long and complex exploration process involving various uncertainties, and plummeting stock prices, we suggest investors to ‘Avoid’ the stock at the closing price of $0.052 as of 14th July 2021.

Technical Analysis- The stock showed a spectacular rise from December 2020 and printed the recent high of $4.27 and post that it witnessed sharp correction and moving in a downward trajectory since then. The stock recently touched crucial support of $1.545 and bounced from there. The Relative strength index is currently showing 63.26 which is heading towards the upper range of the zone, pointing at some more strength in the current uptrend. The 21 Days Simple Moving Average is placed below the closing of the stock price at $1.74, which is indicating an upside in the stock further from there. The stock is poised to face the strong resistance of $2.375 which can bring selling pressure at these levels.

With the lack of operating revenues, dependency on the Research & Development grants, accumulating losses, and current overall downtrend in stock prices, we suggest investors to ‘Avoid’ the stock at the closing price of $2.070, up by 15.64% as of 14th July 2021.
