奧本海默公司稱,Cloudflare股票拋售潮為買入良機,Glasswing專案的擔憂「被誇大了」。

-- 奧本海默週五表示,Cloudflare (NET) 的股價拋售提供了買入良機,而圍繞 Project Glasswing 的擔憂被“誇大了”,因為這家雲端服務公司有望受益於人工智慧應用預計的指數級增長。 奧本海默對 Cloudflare 的樂觀展望正值其股價週四暴跌 8.6% 之際。該券商將股價下跌歸因於 Anthropic 的 Project Glasswing 計畫引發的競爭擔憂以及整體市場的疲軟。週五下午晚些時候,Cloudflare 股價下跌 13%,使其今年迄今的跌幅接近 15%。 Anthropic 在聲明中表示,Project Glasswing 是一個跨產業聯盟,旨在「保護全球最關鍵的軟體」。該聯盟將採用 Anthropic 公司尚未發布的 Claude Mythos 前沿模型,成員包括亞馬遜網路服務 (AMZN)、蘋果 (AAPL)、博通 (AVGO)、思科 (CSCO)、CrowdStrike (CRWD)、Alphabet 旗下的Google (GOOG, GOOGL)、摩根大通 (JPMPAN)、微軟電話 (JPM) 和皮達 (WFTOG)、英達偉 Cloudflare 不屬於該聯盟。 奧本海默分析師 Param Singh 和 Jake Heimowitz 週五在一份致客戶的報告中表示,對 Project Glasswing 的擔憂“被誇大了”,Cloudflare 的股價拋售提供了一個“戰術性買入機會”。他們表示,Claude Mythos 將「主動發現並修復關鍵基礎設施中的漏洞」。 分析師寫道:“我們想強調的是,Cloudflare 的安全產品銷售與其物理網絡息息相關,而物理網絡對於引導數據流量至關重要。” “我們認為,隨著前沿模型日趨成熟,Cloudflare 將成為受益者。這將推動智能體人工智能應用呈指數級增長,並使 Cloudflare 在交付、安全和計算方面都受益。” 分析師表示,Cloudflare 處理全球約 20% 的網路流量,Oppenheimer 認為該公司將成為市場份額成長者和受益者,受益於「日益智慧化的網路」。報告指出,智能體人工智慧預計將以超過 20% 的複合年增長率推動數據流量成長。 這家對 Cloudflare 股票給予“跑贏大盤”評級的券商表示,其調查顯示,隨著“安全模組和計算能力的提升”,客戶在 Cloudflare 的支出正在加速增長。

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.

Saudi Shares Start Week Higher; US-Iran Peace Talks Canceled

The Tadawul All Share Index closed Sunday 0.11% higher as investors assessed the latest updates regarding the conflict in the Middle East.US President Donald Trump said on his Truth Social account that the Pakistani trip for his envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, was canceled. The announcement dimmed the hopes for peace talks between Iran and the US to happen any time soon.Further to this, Israel launched an attack in Lebanon on April 25. The strikes, which targeted Hezbollah, resulted in four casualties and facility damage in Southern Lebanon.Back at home, Rabigh Refining and Petrochemical (SASE:2380), d/b/a Petro Rabigh, and Thob Al Aseel (SASE:4012) posted their financial results for the three months ended March 31. 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.
