-- 週三午後,美國股市指數上漲,納斯達克綜合指數觸及歷史新高,原油期貨價格也隨之走高,此前美國總統川普宣布延長與伊朗的停火協議。 那斯達克指數上漲1.3%,至24,583.3點;標普500指數上漲0.8%,至7,123.5點;道瓊工業指數上漲0.6%,至49,453.7點。除房地產、工業和金融板塊外,所有板塊均上漲。科技、能源和通訊服務板塊領漲。 據福克斯新聞週三援引一位白宮官員的話報道,這次停火協議的延長僅持續三到五天。美國對伊朗港口的封鎖仍然有效。 伊朗已將解除對其港口的封鎖作為恢復巴基斯坦斡旋的結束戰爭談判以及允許船隻通過霍爾木茲海峽(全球20%原油運輸的咽喉要道)的關鍵條件。 同時,根據美國有線電視新聞網(CNN)援引伊朗伊斯蘭革命衛隊(IRGC)的消息報道,伊朗伊斯蘭革命衛隊在霍爾木茲海峽扣押了兩艘船。 CNN引述伊朗媒體報道稱,第三艘船也遭到了伊斯蘭革命衛隊的襲擊,「目前在伊朗海岸附近失去動力」。 西德州中質原油期貨價格上漲4.4%,至每桶93.65美元;布蘭特原油期貨價格上漲3.8%,至每桶102.22美元。 公司方面,通用電氣Vernova(GEV)公佈了第一季獲利和營收成長,並上調了全年營收預期。股價上漲13%,成為標普500指數中漲幅最大的股票。 波音公司(BA)第一季虧損意外收窄,原因是商用飛機交付量增加,同時這家飛機製造商報告現金消耗年減。股價上漲5.3%,成為道瓊指數中漲幅最大的股票。 義大利競爭管理局週三表示,Booking Holdings(BKNG)正因涉嫌使用欺騙性行銷手段推廣其高端住宿項目而接受調查。股價暴跌4.9%,成為納斯達克指數中跌幅最大的股票。 特斯拉(TSLA)第一季業績將於盤後公佈。 Wedbush Securities在周二的報告中表示,這家電動車製造商的全自動駕駛(FSD)監控系統的滲透率可能超過50%,這將改變其財務模式。 美國公債殖利率漲跌互現,10年期公債殖利率穩定在4.29%,2年期公債殖利率上漲1.9個基點至3.8%。 貴金屬方面,黃金期貨上漲0.6%至每盎司4,749.1美元,白銀期貨上漲1.9%至每盎司77.91美元。

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.
