The offshores continued to slide further yesterday as they failed to hold their support levels.
Kepcorp continue its downtrend movement and is now getting nearer to its recent low of 10.28 level. 10.28 will likely to be tested today and if it breaks, it will indicate a continuation of downtrend towards next support at 10.00 level.
Sembcorp broke its support at 4.95 level and was quick to test its next support at 4.90 level. Sembcorp will likely to hold at this support level before a more decisive action can happen.
Sembmar slide lower yesterday and broke multiple MA lines. It had confirmed its lower low formation after breaking 4.36 support level. It will likely to test its next support at 4.30 level today.
Overall, the offshores are likely to show a little more selling pressure today.

The offshores were trading lower yesterday.
Kepcorp failed to hold at is support of 10.44 level yesterday and it is likely to trade lower currently as it have confirmed its formation of a lower high. The major support of Kepcorp is at 10.28 level and it will likely to be tested soon.
Sembcorp failed to how at its MA support lines and fell further to test its horizontal support at 4.95 level. This support level will likely to continue to be support Sembcorp today. However, if it fails to hold, Sembcorp will be sliding lower towards its next support of 4.95 level.
Sembmar seems to attempting a rebound yesterday but it failed to gain bullish momentum. It will likely to test its support at 4.36 level again before its attempt to rebound will be fruitful.
Overall, the offshores are now closer to their support levels but they will likely to trade slightly lower till they rest at their support levels.
The Three Numbers That Make SembCorp Marine Float

 
As investors, it?s common to focus our attention on a company?s earnings growth and dividend yield as a gauge for the bangs for bucks we are paying for. But, there?s actually another useful yardstick for us to examine to see if we are getting good returns on our money.
Cue the entrance of the Return on Equity. My Foolish colleague David Kuo humorously ? and aptly ? calls it a ?one-duck-eat-three-ways-meal? because the yardstick can be split into three individual components in what?s widely known as the DuPont Analysis.
The Dupont Analysis in turn, provides us with useful insights into what makes a company tick.
Sembcorp Marine (SGX: S51) is the marine engineering arm of Sembcorp Industries (SGX: U96), which also provides energy and water-related utilities services.
The former has a high Return of Equity of 23%. In comparison, the average for the 30 companies that make up the Straits Times Index (SGX: ^STI) is only around 10%. So, this makes Sembcorp Marine more than twice as effective at making a profit on every dollar of shareholder capital it holds.
But where does it shine though?
With a Net Profit Margin of 12%, Sembcorp Marine is not as adept at turning sales into profit when compared to the market-average of 19%. The Net Profit Margin tells us the amount of profit made per dollar of revenue.
Looking at the Asset Turnover Ratio, which measures the amount of sales generated on each dollar of asset, we see the company faring slightly better. It has a turnover of 0.82 compared to the market-average of around 0.5
That leaves us with the Leverage Ratio, which is the amount of assets a company has acquired in relation to its equity. In other words, it is also a measure of the amount of liabilities a company has taken on to acquire income-producing assets. Sembcorp Marine has a Leverage Ratio of 2.3, which is higher than the market average of 1.7.
Putting it all together, we now have a better idea on what makes Sembcorp Marine float. Its high Return on Equity of 23% has been achieved through a Net Profit Margin of 12%, Asset Turnover Ratio of 0.82 and Leverage Ratio of 2.2.
It seems that Sembcorp Marine has managed to attain its above-average Return on Equity through a better grasp at utilising assets to generate sales and to effectively lever up its shareholder funds to acquire income-generating assets.
Interestingly, the company has been seeing a declining Return on Equity. The figure previously stood at 34% in 2010 and 29% in 2011. Upon closer inspection, the biggest culprit was the drop in Net Profit Margins from 19% (in both 2010 and 2011) to 12% currently. It might be worthwhile for investors to keep a watchful eye on Sembcorp Marine?s profit margins in the future.
The offshores were mostly trading in the red zone yesterday.
Kepcorp continues to struggle on the upside as it fails to break the 20ma resistance line at 10.60 level. It had attempted to retrace yesterday but buyers were supporting at 10.44 level. However, with the bearish closing, Kepcorp will likely to continue to head lower today to test 10.44 support level again.
Sembmar also suffered selling pressure yesterday but it is mainly due to its ex-dividend of 5cts. Its support at 4.40 held well after its attempt to break it. Sembmar will also be holding and testing its support at 4.40 level today.
Sembcorp held its grounds well without any gains or losses. However, it had tested its support at 5.02  level yesterday and it seems to be  holding well. Sembcorp will likely to consolidate at 5.02 level before and upside can be seen.
Overall, the offshores will likely to see some selling pressure but their support levels prevent further downside movement.

The offshores were struggling to keep its heads up yesterday and closed slightly lower.
Kepcorp continues to face resistance from the 20ma line at 10.60 level and was unable to break it yesterday. With its bearish hanging man pattern formed, Kepcorp is running the risk of having a retracement action to form lower high formation.
Sembcorp failed to head higher to test its resistance at 5.10 level, instead, it head back towards its support at 5.02 level. Sembcorp will likely to attempt to test 5.02 support level again today.
Sembmar continues to struggle on it?s upwards movement as it ended slightly lower yesterday. With its ex-dividend of 0.08cts tomorrow, it will likely to create some downside pressure tomorrow.
Overall, the offshores will likely to start facing selling pressure today as their upside had been capped.
