-- 独立系調査会社CFRAは、に対し、以下の調査レポートを提供しました。CFRAのアナリストは、以下のように見解をまとめています。AMZNの第1四半期決算発表を前に、12ヶ月目標株価を296ドルから285ドルに下方修正します。これは、2027年のEPS（1株当たり利益）9.48ドル（従来予想9.87ドル）、2026年のEPS7.60ドル（従来予想8.00ドル）の30倍に相当します。これは同業他社の平均約25倍を依然として上回る水準ですが、3年間のPEGレシオは同業他社の2.0倍に対し、1.5倍となります。今回の修正予測は、AI投資の増加を反映したものであり、総設備投資額は50%以上増加し、約2,000億ドル（3年間の年平均成長率約60%）に達すると見込まれます。これらの投資の大部分は、2027年または2028年に収益化される予定です。この規模の支出に加え、AMZNの自社製チップに対する強い需要（Trainium2はほぼ完売、Trainium3はほぼ完売）、AWSの受注残高の堅調さ、そして電力供給能力の拡大を考慮すると、AWSの成長率は2025年の約20%から2026年には20%台後半、2027年には30%台半ばへと加速すると確信しています。その他の分野では、フルフィルメント効率の向上と高収益のデジタル広告の好調さにより、小売マージンが引き続き拡大すると予想されます。Amazon Leoのコストが損益計算書から貸借対照表に移管される2026年下半期には、利益成長率が改善する見込みです。

Fortescue Faces Pressure From Iron Bridge Weakness, Green Energy Shift, Jefferies Says
Fortescue (ASX:FMG) reported softer quarterly performance alongside ongoing challenges at Iron Bridge and increased spending on non-core green energy projects, raising concerns over returns and valuation, Jefferies said in an April 24 note.The company reported a softer quarter due to seasonal and weather impacts, with solid performance from its Pilbara hematite operations offset by ongoing underperformance at the Iron Bridge magnetite project, which continues to face throughput and margin challenges and may struggle to justify its value.Jefferies noted that the company's $680 million investment in green energy capacity for third-party customers, such as industrial users and data centers, represents a strategic shift, but views it as non-core capital allocation that may justify a higher discount rate for its mining business until clearer returns emerge.The equity research firm said that the company's Pilbara system is nearing port capacity constraints, a "good problem" that may allow higher-margin hematite production to displace costlier Iron Bridge volumes, as the company reviews its portfolio, trims Iron Bridge output, and keeps overall shipment guidance broadly unchanged.The research firm added that the company remains financially solid with $4.2 billion in cash despite dividends and capital expenditure outflows and is expected to return to a net cash position longer term, but highlighted Iron Bridge uncertainty and higher green energy spending as risks, including a potential write-down, supporting a cautious outlook.Jefferies maintained an underperform rating on Fortescue and reduced the price target to AU$16.50 from AU$17.50.

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Hold Opinion On Shares Of Otis Worldwide Corporation
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We cut our 12-month target to $90 from $100 following Q1 earnings, valuing OTIS shares at 19.6x our 2027 EPS outlook of $4.58 (down from $4.70; 2026 EPS view updated to $4.18 from $4.25), a modest discount to industrial machinery peers' and OTIS's five-year forward multiple average given unclear timing of ongoing margin headwinds. Service margins were disappointing in Q1 (contracting 160 bps to 23%) amid higher labor and material costs that came in above pricing. Weakness in China has yet to stabilize, though as noted in the past, this represents a shrinking area of OTIS's portfolio and will have a more limited effect going forward. Overall, the latest quarter was more of the same (China weakness/New Equipment decline), though with the added concern of margin quality being pressured within Service - the core profit driver for OTIS overall. While efforts to shore up profitability are underway, we see timing of recovery being uncertain.
