-- 巴西國家石油公司（Petrobras，簡稱PBR）週一宣布，在坎波斯盆地鹽下層發現了油氣資源。 這項發現是在CM-477區塊的一口勘探井中取得的，該區塊位於裡約熱內盧海岸約201公里處，水深近3000公尺。 該公司在聲明中表示，這口井編號為1-BRSA-1404DC-RJS，透過電測井、天然氣顯示和流體取樣證實了油氣的存在。 巴西國家石油公司表示，將對採集的樣本進行進一步的實驗室分析，以確定油藏和流體的特徵，從而幫助公司評估該發現的商業可行性。 該公司持有CM-477區塊70%的股份，其餘30%的股份由英國石油公司（BP）持有。 該區塊是在巴西國家石油、天然氣和生物燃料管理局組織的第十六輪招標中授予的，招標採用特許經營模式。 巴西石油公司表示，此次發現符合其透過在前沿地區勘探來補充油氣儲備的策略，同時確保在更廣泛的能源轉型過程中能源供應。

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.

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.
