-- ロイター通信が同社幹部の話として報じたところによると、日本最大の発電会社であるJERAは、中東紛争によるホルムズ海峡の事実上の閉鎖に伴う供給途絶にもかかわらず、7月までの国内需要を満たすのに十分な液化天然ガス(LNG)在庫を保有していると述べた。 「現時点で、7月まで供給できるだけの在庫を確保しています」と、財務戦略企画部長の大滝正人氏は月曜日にロイター通信に語った。 同氏は、国内需要に対応できる柔軟な燃料調達を確保するため、グローバル市場での取引能力を活用すると述べた。 また、ホルムズ海峡の封鎖がどれくらい続くかに応じて、調達戦略を調整するとも述べた。 これは、Jeraがカタールエネルギーと、2028年から開始されるノースフィールド・サウス拡張プロジェクトから年間300万トンのLNGを供給する約30年にわたる契約を締結してからわずか数か月後のことである。しかし、この紛争がこの契約にどのような影響を与えるかは明らかになっていない。 Jeraは、からのこの件に関するコメント要請にすぐには応じなかった。 (マーケットチャッターのニュースは、世界中の市場専門家との会話から得られた情報に基づいています。この情報は信頼できる情報源に基づいていると考えられますが、噂や憶測が含まれる可能性があります。正確性は保証されません。)

HCA Healthcare Pressure Expected to Persist Through Q2 on Managed Care Rotation, RBC Says
HCA Healthcare (HCA) may face near-term pressure through at least the first half as investors rotate toward managed care, although better trends in March and in-line exchange dynamics support the longer-term outlook, RBC Capital Markets said.The company's weaker-than-expected Q1, driven by lower respiratory volume and weather-related disruption, has increased near-term concern around hospital volumes and patient mix.RBC said in a Sunday note that it expects Friday's share price decline to persist through Q2 as management works to demonstrate execution against growth targets and as investors await further clarity on the impact of ePTC expiry.The investment firm said March volumes improved meaningfully while exchange-related pressure remains manageable. HIX declines reflect both lost volume and patients in grace periods already incorporated into bad debt reserves. Surgical and outpatient trends remain broadly consistent with its full-year outlook, according to the note.RBC reiterated its outperform rating and lowered its price target to $534 from $593, citing increased caution on near-term hospital volume and mix dynamics and a broader rotation toward managed care.Price: $439.41, Change: $+6.95, Percent Change: +1.61%
