  Growth Focus: Aveo Group (AOG)
 
Our primary focus here is capital gain, we will select our stocks from the ASX top 500 All Ordinaries Index.
 
Volatility in the general market continues as opposing trends in various timeframes grind against each other. At the moment we still have some negative momentum carrying across from the longer-term downtrend but with short and medium-term trends recently turning positive we could see a good short-term rally ahead.
 
Hoping to target an aging Boomer demographic we are turning our focus on Aveo Group (AOG) an aged-care property operator and developer of retirement villages. As risk and reward tend to be fairly evenly weighted it is worthwhile to point out this stock can tread a tumultuous path.
 
Still grinding its way through its ongoing recovery from the GFC where it topped out at $25 late 2007. AOG continues riding the rally that has lifted it from its lows around $1 late 2012 and with important structural and dynamic resistance breaking at $2.90 and $3.00 recently we think there should be more to come.
 
Aveo Group is strongly correlated to its long-term (and currently positive) ongoing uptrend and we have confidence that the long-term structural/dynamic resistance cluster at $5.00 and ranging from $4.86 to $5.28 should act as a magnet for the price.
 
Lately the short-term action has been significant with the recent break and retesting of support around $3.00. This should solidify into support and we can then look to focus on our dynamic target of $3.50 - $3.52.
 
There is some good fundamental support with a consensus discount to today’s pricing around 6% and aggregate targets rising ahead of the price. Earnings growth forecasts look robust with brokers’ reports unanimously positive. While there is a dividend it is a fairly small cherry on top, though with time are expected to increase. For all these reasons we think AOG is a good higher-risk capital growth prospect.
