Tidewater Inc's stock price fell by 6.04% during regular trading, crossing below its 5-day SMA. This decline occurs in the context of mixed market performance, with the Nasdaq-100 up 0.37% while the S&P 500 is down 0.13%.
The drop in Tidewater's stock is attributed to sector rotation, as investors are shifting their focus away from energy stocks despite the overall market's mixed signals. The divergence in performance between the Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500 indicates a selective investment approach, impacting Tidewater negatively.
This movement suggests that investors are reassessing their positions in energy stocks like Tidewater, potentially looking for opportunities in sectors that are currently outperforming. The company's future performance may depend on broader market trends and investor sentiment.

In Line
Reason
Evercore ISI lowered the firm's price target on Tidewater to $65 from $67 and keeps an In Line rating on the shares after the company reported "mixed" Q3 results. Tidewater is navigating a transitional phase and early 2026 guidance "feels conservative," but the industry's broader recovery is pivotal, the analyst tells investors.
