OSB Group (LSE:OSB)’s share price is exhibiting some rather optimistic potentials.
Currently, above 585p has the potential to trigger growth to an initial 711p with our secondary, if bettered, at an impressive 795p, so we think this share may be worth watching. It’s rare for us to report such a happy potential.

Our alternate scenario, if everything intends to go wrong, the share price needs to flounder below 526p as reversals down to an initial 481 looks possible. Should such a level break, our secondary calculates at 447p along with considerable hope for a rebound. To be fair, the share price needs to close a session below 503p to inspire a justified dose of panic.
For now, we feel pretty optimistic for this one.
