• The chart tells the story where buyers who bought on February 2017 and get caught around the price of $3.78 - $3.90 high, started to sell off their stocks on 12/05/2017, indicated by candlesticks bar.The previous buyer tends to either break-even or take a minimal profit and move out from the stocks, after stuck in the stock for about 3 months (bearish trend). With the high selling pressure, it tends to make the price to be a slight bearish and not able to hit the new high breakout. 
• Therefore, the chart shows the price dropping continuously on subsequent days after it reach the high.
• This stock also forms a "Cup and Handle" pattern. With the trends and pattern formation, I would personally consider of entering this stock only when there is new breakout above the price of $3.88. Where it forms an uptrend above the "Handle" of the "Cup and Handle" pattern. 

What is "Cup and Handle" chart pattern?

• The Cup with Handle is a bullish continuation pattern that marks a consolidation period followed by a breakout. A cup and handle pattern on charts resembles its namesake, a cup with a handle. The cup is shaped as "U" and the handle has a slight downward drift. 
• As a stock forming this pattern tests old highs, it is likely to incur selling pressure from investors who previously bought at those levels. Selling pressure is likely to make price consolidate with a tendency toward a downtrend for a short period of time, before advancing higher. A cup and handle is considered a bullish continuation pattern and is used to identify buying opportunities. 
• A subsequent breakout from the handle's trading range signals a continuation of the prior advance.

ComforDelGro Corp Ltd. (C52):

Latest update as of 19/05/2017 @$2.42:

• The major implications that investors should take note of is in ComfortDelGro’s 2017 first quarter results, its taxi segment recorded a near-6% year-on-year decline in revenue.
• Earlier this year, a Straits Times article shared that the number of private-hire cars – owned by ride-hailing services such as Uber and Grab – had exceeded the number of taxis on the road in 2016.
• From the ComfortDelGro earnings presentation source of 2017, the Taxi Business are presented as below: 
  • Lower rental income in Singapore from a lower operating fleet, introduction of flexi rental schemes and the passing on of LTA's diesel tax rebate to drivers in the form of taxi rental discounts. 
  • Decrease in revenue in the UK due to unfavourable currency translation from the weaker Euro. 
  • Decrease in revenue in China from a smaller fleet, government mandated reduction in taxi rental rates and unfavourable currency translation from the weaker RMB.
  • Decrease in revenue in Australia from lower rank fees. 
  • Decrease in revenue in Vietnam from a smaller fleet. 
• Overall, we know that operating environment across all sectors have a tough outlook, and this includes the taxi, inspection, automotive engineering service that they operate. Operating profits as a result are down at about 9% yoy.
• ComfortDelgro's concentration of revenue are bigger in UK than in Australia, hence the exchange rate movement of weaker pounds impact them unfavorably.
• From a cashflow point of view, Comfort is actually doing better than what it was a year ago, not taking into account the changes in working capital.
