Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp  (OCBC.SI), Singapore’s second-biggest bank, will be in focus ahead of earnings later on Friday. Analysts expect the bank will report an 11 percent rise in quarterly profit, boosted by strong contributions from its insurance unit and from higher fee and commission income.
OCBC: GEH’s weaker 4Q results means analysts have to adjust their forecast for OCBC’s 4Q net profit down by ~10%. Still, this may be less of a concern, given the strong underlying business trends at GE. The upstreaming of cash to OCBC is also a positive, and may help improve its capital adequacy ratios, which under Basel III, can be rather punitive for OCBC.
OCBC’s results due 18 Feb.

It is marketing hype.  I believe it will fall below $9 in a week's time.
Time to buy " ho c mg c" now @   S$9.48 !!! Good Luck
Trend line: betting with broker.
                          Support/resistance: betting with banker.
                                            Fundamental: betting  CEO  aggressiveness and insight... 


                                                                              Bank deposit: betting with country government and securities.

my 2c, hi chance it finds its support at 2 or 3.   Just my guess..

The thing about marketing hype is once it achieves anything less than sterling results, the stock will plunge back below $9.  The higher the expectations, the harder it falls.
let us see if ocbc can close above 9.64..... then monday will be a clear pic..... for friday annoucement !

OCBC  -   Technical Analysis
OCBC Bank stock extended its downside correction as it broke short-term support 9.82 on Tuesday. It touched a session low at 9.54 in yesterday's action and bounced back slightly. A doji-candle in the daily chart is indicating short-term tug-of-war between buyers and seller at current levels. A near-term recovery seems possible, since technical oscillators show oversold readings after the recent decline. A decisive move below 9.54 would suggest immediate resumption of the short-term downtrend targeting important zone of support 9.30-9.42. Decisive violation of the latter area would be mid-term bearish. Next levels of resistance are located at 9.63 and then 9.82. Crucial resistance is seen at 9.94/9.98. A close above the latter barrier would likely trigger a retest of the peak at 10.36
