Le titre OII s'est libéré le 27 octobre d'une large base de 5 mois sur une annonce de résultat inattendue. En effet cette dernière a battu le consensus des analystes et a lancé le titre dans une nouvelle dynamique haussière à moyen terme. Ce type de configuration est appelée un
PEAD "post earning announcement drift" et constitue une véritable anomalie de marché.
Techniquement, un gap de rupture sur de très fort volume caractérise la journée de l'annonce.
Court Terme
Le titre temporise actuellement dans un petit triangle de continuation de tendance. Au dessus de 71.50, le titre pourrait s'envoler vers 82.50-86. Sous 67, une invalidation du scénario est à
prévoir.

Oct 26 (Reuters) - Oilfield services provider Oceaneering International Inc (OII.N) reported a quarterly profit that beat estimates, helped by higher demand for its subsea products, and raised full-year profit outlook for the second time in three months, sending its shares up 9 percent in extended trade.
For the fourth quarter, the remotely operated vehicles (ROV) and mobile offshore production systems provider forecasts earnings of 80-85 cents a share.
It expects full-year earnings at $3.57-$3.62 a share, up from $3.20-$3.40 a share.
Analysts on average look for earnings of $0.73 a share for the fourth quarter and $3.38 per share for the full year, according to

For the third quarter, net income was $59 million, or $1.09 a share, compared with $49.8 million, or 90 cents a share, last year. Revenue rose 7 percent to $516.3 million.
Analysts expected Oceaneering to post earnings of 94 cents a share on revenue of $470 million.
Shares of the Houston-based company were up 9 percent at $58.94 in extended trade after closing on the New York Stock Exchange Tuesday at $54.29. They have risen less than 5 percent since the company said it expects ROV operating income in 2010 to equal 2009, in September.
