-- 世界銀行は火曜日、中東紛争により世界の食料価格が高騰する見込みだと警告した。エネルギー価格の高騰が肥料価格を押し上げ、農業生産を圧迫しているためだ。 世界銀行によると、肥料価格は2026年までに31%上昇すると予測されており、特に尿素価格の急騰は農家の負担を増大させ、作物の収穫量を脅かすという。 また、紛争が長引けば、投入コストの上昇が世界の食料サプライチェーン全体に波及し、今年中に最大4500万人が深刻な食料不安に陥る危険性があると付け加えた。 世界銀行は、今回の事態はエネルギー供給の混乱が食料インフレを加速させ、特に貧困層が価格上昇の影響を最も受けやすいことを浮き彫りにしていると述べた。

Research Alert: CFRA Reiterates Sell Opinion On Shares Of Starbucks Corporation
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We raise our price target by $8 to $82, 30x our FY 27 (Sep.) EPS estimate and in line with its 10-year average forward multiple. We raise our FY 26 estimate to $2.26 from $2.21 and FY 27's to $2.74 from $2.64. Following FQ2 results that showed strong global comp growth acceleration to 6.2% (+710 bps), we reiterate our Sell opinion. Shares trade at 30x forward earnings, in line with their long-term average, suggesting the market expects this momentum through FY 27. Our model assumes SBUX meets its 5% global comp growth goal in FY 26, with margin expansion due to waning store investment costs, lower interest expenses, and improved international segment margins from the Boyu Capital China joint venture. We believe it will be difficult to sustain operating margin improvement on comp growth alone, with new store growth of just 0.8% in FQ3 potentially not inflecting higher until FY 28. At current valuation levels reflecting optimistic assumptions, we see limited upside and maintain our Sell rating.
