Exterran Holdings surprisingly ran out of steam after the publication of its Q2 2013.
EPS stood at 0.14 dollars (consensus 0.10) and sales at 837,3M dollars (consensus 820M). The management team remains confident in their ability to improve overall performance year over year. The recent sharp decline seems not to be justified.

Technically, the trend remains bullish in the medium and long term. Prices are evolving within a rising trading channel and are, now, near to the lower limit of the latter. This threshold, combined with the 100-day moving average and the USD 28 medium-term support, should drives the stock up towards USD 30.2.

Investor should watch the security close to USD 28 support to take advantage of a new upward acceleration towards USD 30.2. A stop loss is placed under USD 28.
