彭博社分析稱,美國汽油和柴油價格創下季節性歷史新高

-- 根據彭博社週二發布的分析報告顯示,美國零售汽油和柴油價格已達到歷史新高,加劇了夏季出遊高峰前的燃油成本壓力。 該分析指出,隨著夏季出行高峰的臨近,汽油和柴油價格攀升至新的季節性高峰,美國消費者正面臨一年中異常高的燃油成本。 該分析引述美國汽車協會的數據稱,由於市場對美伊協議的預期,零售燃油價格近日略有回落,但仍處於高位。週一汽油均價為每加侖4.12美元。 該分析指出,這一價格創下了同期新高,超過了2022年創下的每加侖4.07美元的紀錄。 2022年,由於俄羅斯入侵烏克蘭導致供應中斷,燃油價格飆升。 該分析也指出,全國平均柴油價格達到每加侖5.65美元,比2022年的前一個季節高峰高出0.60美元以上。 此次油價飆升與霍爾木茲海峽的交通中斷有關。伊朗捲入的衝突限制了這條關鍵航道的石油運輸,該航道承擔全球近四分之一的海運石油運輸量。 分析指出,原油價格上漲加劇了整體通膨壓力,燃油成本上漲推高了交通運輸、食品價格,甚至機票價格,加劇了經濟壓力。 自2月下旬以來,汽油價格已上漲超過每加侖1.10美元。當時,美國和以色列對伊朗的空襲加劇了緊張局勢,並導致全球能源市場趨緊。 分析顯示,美國能源部長克里斯·賴特週二表示,汽油價格可能在未來幾週內保持高位,凸顯了供應狀況持續存在的不確定性。 分析稱,美國能源資訊署預計,如果緊張局勢緩解,第二季汽油均價將達到每加侖4.16美元,到第四季將回落至每加侖3.55美元。

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.

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Strong Buy Opinion On Shares Of Baker Hughes

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We raise our 12-month target price by $14 to $82, reflecting a combination of our sum-of-the-parts (SOTP) and DCF models. For our SOTP model, we presume the oilfield services business (about 50% of BKR's franchise) to be valued at about 10x projected 2027 EBITDA (in line with major peers) and its industrial energy technology business (the other 50%) valued at 14x projected 2027 EBITDA (in line with the peer median). This blended approach, yielding a 12x multiple, implies a value of $73 per share. Meanwhile, our DCF model, using medium-term free cash flow growth of 5% per year, terminal growth of 2.5%, discounted at a WACC of 6.3%, yields intrinsic value of $91 per share. We cut our 2026 EPS estimate by $0.47 to $2.48, but we raise 2027's by $0.07 to $3.24. We acknowledge that the oilfield services business is likely to struggle in 2026 owing to the U.S.-Iran conflict, but the IET business appears quite robust and likely to be a source of both accelerating revenue growth and margins.

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Opinion In Shares Of Wab

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 to $285 from $275 following WAB's Q1 earnings print, valuing shares at 24.2x our 2027 EPS outlook of $11.76 (revised from $11.46; 2026 EPS estimate up to $10.57 from $10.50), a slight premium to WAB's long-term historical multiple average given structural improvements in earnings quality. While we are cautious on signs of overcapacity in the freight market, an elevated order backlog (12-month sits at over $9 billion), internal initiatives to shore up margins, and potential synergies from M&A activity positions WAB to continue growing earnings at double-digit rates in 2026-2027, in our view. Despite tariff-related cost pressures, WAB has done a commendable job of defending margins via a mix of pricing, lean manufacturing, and pruning of lower-profit operations. Q1 results were mixed but overall positive, in our view. We maintain our Hold recommendation on shares.
