-- 伊朗議會議長穆罕默德·巴格爾·加利巴夫週五表示,在周末於伊斯蘭堡舉行的和平談判開始前,與華盛頓達成的兩項先決條件必須實施。 加利巴夫在社交媒體X上發帖稱:“雙方共同商定的兩項措施尚未落實:一是黎巴嫩停火,二是談判開始前解凍伊朗被凍結的資產。這兩項事項必須在談判開始前得到滿足。” 此貼文發布之際,美國和伊朗正準備在週六舉行旨在解決中東衝突的會談。加利巴夫提到了以色列在黎巴嫩持續不斷的攻擊,以及伊朗因美國制裁而在海外銀行凍結的數百億美元資產。 就在美伊週二晚間達成停火框架協議數小時後,以色列發動了官員所稱的黎巴嫩戰爭中規模最大的襲擊,據黎巴嫩當局稱,襲擊造成人口稠密地區300多人死亡。 週五,以色列空襲黎巴嫩南部持續進行,多個城鎮報告新增十幾人死亡。根據當地媒體報道,納巴蒂耶一處政府大樓遭到攻擊,造成13名黎巴嫩國家安全部隊成員喪生。真主黨稱已向以色列北部發射火箭回應。 週五,美國總統唐納德·川普在Truth Social網站上發文稱,伊朗的籌碼僅限於短期施壓策略,並認為其在談判中處於弱勢地位。 「伊朗人似乎沒有意識到,除了利用國際水道對世界進行短期勒索之外,他們別無其他籌碼。他們今天還能活著,唯一的理由就是談判!」川普在Truth Social的貼文中寫道。 在計劃於伊斯蘭堡舉行的會談中,德黑蘭預計將爭取重大讓步,包括解除制裁,以及擴大對其霍爾木茲海峽主權的承認。霍爾木茲海峽是一條重要的全球航道,伊朗試圖對其進行管制並從中牟利。 據海事消息人士稱,伊朗船隻週五繼續通過霍爾木茲海峽,未見任何中斷報道,而外國商船航行則基本上受到限制。衝突爆發前,每天約有140艘船隻通過該水道,其中包括載有高達2,000萬桶石油的油輪。 預計美國將重點關注伊朗的核子計畫。西方官員稱,伊朗擁有超過400公斤的高濃縮鈾庫存,並持續發展飛彈和無人機能力。 由於市場參與者密切關注即將舉行的美伊談判,原油基準價格在午盤交易中走低。布蘭特原油下跌1.43%至每桶94.55美元,WTI原油下跌1.74%至每桶96.17美元,穆爾班原油下跌1.56%至每桶98.07美元。

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.

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Buy Opinion On Shares Of The Hartford Insurance Group, Inc.
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We trim our 12-month target price by $8 to $155, valuing HIG shares at 11.3x our 2026 operating EPS estimate of $13.75 (cut by $0.45) and at 10.6x our 2027 EPS estimate of $14.65 (cut by $0.30), vs. the shares' one-year average forward multiple of 10.3x and peer average of 13x. Q1 EPS of $3.09 vs. $2.20 a year ago missed our $3.60 estimate and $3.39 consensus view. Operating revenue growth of 6.2% was in line with our 6%-10% forecast, amid 5.3% earned premium growth, 13% higher net investment income, and 7.9% fee revenue growth. Q1 written premium growth of 4% and full-year 2025 growth of 7% bode well for 2026 revenue trends as premiums are earned. Underwriting results improved significantly, with Personal Lines combined ratio improving to 87.7% from 106.1% and underlying combined ratio to 85.0% from 89.7%. Business Insurance combined ratio was stable at 94.8%. Weighing the Q1 EPS miss with HIG's decent top-line growth and discounted valuation to peers, we view the shares as undervalued.
