Technical Observation:
The stock has been in the mark down phase since mid 2014. Early this year, the mark down halted at S$3.45 amid lower revenue and earnings. This may suggest that the stock's mark down phase has potentially ended and accumulation phase taking place.
SPH broke out this morning above the S$3.53 range high. This may suggest that the stock is looking to mark up from current price towards 1st Target: S$3.62, Mark Down Channel Upper Band and potentially 2nd Target: S$3.72, 38.2% retracement from previous high, S$4.15. Stop lost at S$3.445, below low of accumulation phase.
