三菱日聯金融集團表示,全球風險狀況是影響加幣前景的關鍵因素。

By

-- 三菱日聯銀行(MUFG)表示,與幾乎所有G10貨幣一樣,加幣(CAD或加幣)在4月兌美元(USD)走強,儘管原油價格持續高企,但全球風險情緒已轉為更為樂觀。 該行在5月的《外匯展望》中寫道,全球股市強勁反彈,高企的原油價格尚未促使投資人將全球經濟衰退的可能性增加納入考量。 三菱日聯銀行指出,實際原油價格仍相對較低,而且在中東衝突爆發前,全球原油庫存量龐大(82億桶),有助於抑制能源價格的飆升。但該行補充道,隨著時間的推移,金融市場波動性加劇的風險也在增加。 該行表示,加元的韌性在一定程度上反映了貿易條件的支撐,但其他不確定因素正在抵消這種支撐作用。 與聯準會一樣,加拿大央行似乎更傾向於關注能源價格上漲對通膨的影響之外的其他因素,因此升息速度可能會比較緩慢。加拿大央行行長蒂夫·麥克勒姆在4月的會議後表示,維持「接近當前水準」的政策利率有利於通膨回歸目標。然而,三菱日聯銀行指出,麥克勒姆明確表示,如果通膨持續,就必須採取行動。 三菱日聯銀行表示,與聯準會的策略一致,意味著兩年期美加互換利差可以繼續在相對狹窄的區間內波動,這與美元/加元匯率也維持在狹窄區間內波動相一致。 該行補充道,如果衝突再升級,股市波動加劇,加幣將表現不佳。 該行下調美元/加元匯率預測是基於局勢緩和以及原油價格逐步下跌的預期,因此,如果衝突持續時間更長,美元/加元匯率可能走高。

Research Alert: CFRA Lowers View On Shares Of Ati Inc. To Buy From Strong Buy

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Our $179 12-month target is based on an EV/EBITDA of 19.0x applied to our 2027 EBITDA estimate, above ATI's trailing-12-month average forward EV/EBITDA of 17.4x but below peers' average forward EV/EBITDA of 27.2x. We raise our 2026 EPS by $0.03 to $4.46 and 2027's by $0.11 to $5.51. We lower our rating to Buy from Strong Buy based on elevated earnings multiples, not deteriorating fundamentals. ATI is executing well on its strategy to prioritize high-value aerospace, defense, and specialty energy markets. ATI raised full-year 2026 guidance with adjusted EBITDA now expected at $1.01B-$1.06B (up $35M at midpoint), representing 20% Y/Y growth. Record backlog of $4.1B and extending lead times (1+ years for nickel alloys, nearly 2 years for premium titanium) provide strong visibility. Management expects consolidated EBITDA margins above 20% with 40% incremental margins driven by favorable mix and long-term contract pricing. ATI's differentiated position in capacity-constrained markets supports our positive view.

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Hold Opinion On Shares Of Oneok Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Our 12-month target price of $96, raised $7, reflects a combination of relative valuation and DCF model analyses. On a relative basis, we apply a 10.5x multiple of enterprise value to projected '27 EBITDA, in line with OKE's historical forward average, which yields an $89 value. Meanwhile, our DCF model, using medium-term free cash flow growth of 3.5% and terminal growth of 2.0%, discounted at a WACC of 5.4%, yields a value of $103 per share. We lift our '26 EPS estimate by $0.09 to $5.78, but cut '27's by $0.06 to $6.08. OKE noted that its U.S. Gulf Coast Permian NGL volumes rose 31% in Q1, which we think is at least partly due to the disruption in the Middle East and overseas buyers looking for alternative sourcing. We estimate that the combination of growth capex and dividend outlays will chew up about 83% of operating cash flow in 2026, implying a modest degree of safety, but only slightly better than peers. Shares yield 4.6%.
