中东停火协议前景不明朗,德国蓝筹股DAX指数回落

-- 周四,受美伊停火谈判破裂的担忧影响,德国蓝筹股DAX指数逆转早盘涨幅,收跌1.14%。 由于以色列在黎巴嫩持续的军事行动令地区稳定紧张,霍尔木兹海峡的航运仍然瘫痪。对此,德黑兰威胁要放弃与华盛顿刚刚达成的停火协议,而美国总统特朗普则警告称,如果无法达成全面协议,将再次升级军事冲突。 在国内,德国联邦统计局(Destatis)公布的数据显示,2月份德国工业生产环比下降0.3%,低于1月份修正后的零增长,也低于市场预期的0.9%。同比来看,工业产出保持稳定,此前修正后的同比降幅为0.9%。 “今天早上公布的宏观经济数据是描绘中东战争爆发前德国经济状况的最后一批数据。数据显示,消费者非常犹豫不决,而制造业则难以获得积极的增长势头。目前唯一能让我们继续沿用‘番茄酱瓶’比喻的证据是昨天公布的工业订单数据,该数据证实国防工业的订单仍在持续增长。这至少在一定程度上支持了我们长期以来的观点,即财政刺激措施将越来越多地惠及实体经济,”荷兰国际集团(ING)表示。 与此同时,德国2月份经日历和季节性调整后的贸易顺差为198亿欧元,低于上月修正后的203亿欧元和预期的181亿欧元。据联邦统计局的数据,出口环比增长3.6%,高于此前修正后的1.5%的降幅和预期的1%的增长。月度进口量增长4.7%,高于此前修正后的5.1%的降幅,也高于市场预期的4%增幅。 公司新闻方面,梅赛德斯-奔驰集团(MBG.F)股价下跌2.02%,此前该公司公布第一季度交付量为499,700辆,同比下降6%。这家德国汽车制造商表示,业绩符合公司预期。 加拿大皇家银行资本市场将汉高(HEN.F)的调整后每股收益预期和目标股价从75欧元下调至73欧元,原因是担心执行风险可能会限制近期品牌收购带来的营收增长。 加拿大皇家银行(RBC)写道:“收购Not Your Mother's和OLAPLEX将填补汉高现有护发产品组合的空白,并使该公司成为消费者护发领域更具竞争力的品牌。如果执行得当,整合这些品牌有望在中期内为其护发业务带来50个基点的收入增长。然而,鉴于管理层面临诸多挑战,且大宗商品成本通胀同时加剧,我们不能忽视执行风险,因此持观望态度。”这家德国化工和消费品公司收盘上涨0.27%。

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.

Petro Rabigh emerged from a loss in the first quarter, while Thob Al Aseel logged a higher net profit and revenue."The reason for net profit reported during the current quarter compared to a net loss recorded in the same quarter of last year was primarily attributable to improved product margins resulting from stronger refined product pricing and higher sales volumes," Petro Rabigh said in its report.Petro Rabigh rose 10% at closing, while Thob Al Aseel ticked down 1.59%.Meanwhile, the local calendar will be mostly empty except for the kingdom's preliminary figures for its GDP growth rate for the first quarter and the M3 money supply and private bank lending data for March on Thursday.

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Rating On Shares Of United Rentals Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We lift our 12-month target price to $1,100 from $950 following a strong first quarter, valuing shares at 20.5x our 2027 EPS outlook of $54.28 (in line with previous estimate; 2026 EPS also in line). We believe a higher multiple is justified given URI's firming market leadership within an expanding rental equipment industry. A robust Q1 beat enabled URI to raise its full-year revenue guidance to $16.9B-$17.4B and adjusted EBITDA to $7.625B-$7.875B, citing momentum heading into a busy season. With leverage well below historical levels, we believe accretive M&A deals could serve as a potential catalyst for additional guidance increases. Margin compression has been a sticky issue for URI, but Q1 indicated that pricing may have turned around and that headwinds are starting to ease as quarterly results begin to lap when tariff-related inflation began to pick-up. We remain cautious on margins, though are encouraged by signs of stabilization. New project activity is likely supporting pricing trends, in our view.
