Reed Elsevier could regain its upward trend after having run out of steam.

According to Surperformance ratings, the group has strong fundamentals, both in terms of business predictability and valuation. In addition, analysts have recently revised upward their earnings estimates and now expect a profit of EUR 0.77 per share for the current year.

Following a bullish wave, the stock now shows a slight decline has lead the share towards its EUR 14.7 medium-term support. On this level, remobilization of buyer flows would allow an uptrend in the medium and long term.

In this configuration, a rebound seems unavoidable in the EUR 14.7 area. Investors could take a buy order on this level and get a good entry point with a stop below the medium term support. Objectives will be fixed first at EUR 15.25 and then EUR 15.8.
