-- 杰富瑞（Jefferies）周二在一份报告中指出，鉴于保单持有人增长通常在第四财季最为显著，预计Medibank Private（ASX：MPL）将实现其2026财年的业绩预期。 截至2025年12月的12个月内，该公司居民保单持有人增长率为2.3%，高于行业平均水平2.1%，这意味着即使竞争加剧，其市场份额仍将有所增长。 第三财季的理赔增长与行业平均水平一致。Medibank在本财年的前九个月中，根据合作计划向私立医院支付了3930万澳元，而2025财年同期为3660万澳元。 其理赔增长与近期行业趋势相符，并受益于积极的理赔管理。该公司预计2026财年每份保单的理赔增长率将比上年同期增长2.6%至2.9%。 该投资公司维持对 Medibank 的“持有”评级，并将目标价从 4.90 澳元上调至 5.15 澳元。

EMEA Natural Gas Update: Futures Slip Amid Strong Renewables Output, Mild Weather
European natural gas futures opened lower on Wednesday with no major advances in the US-Iran conflict, while relatively strong renewables output displacing gas-fired generation and mild weather averting consumption from air conditioning were among influences.Dutch TTF futures were down 2.2% to 45.88 euros ($53.83) per megawatt hour while UK NBP futures fell 2.9% to 111.7 British pence ($1.52).ANZ Senior Commodities Analyst Daniel Hynes said in a daily update that cooler European temperatures and strong renewables output were one reason why its benchmark futures prices were not currently climbing.US President Donald Trump said in a social media post on Tuesday that he was pausing Project Freedom or the escort of ships through the Strait of Hormuz, at the request of mediator Pakistan and "other countries" while the US would continue to block access in and out of Iranian ports.Trump said that Project Freedom "will be paused for a short period of time to see whether or not the Agreement can be finalized and signed," in reference to a deal he is seeking with Iran, with the abandonment of its nuclear enrichment ambitions chief among his demands.Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Trump said that while higher, he said energy prices had not risen that dramatically and he said the higher prices were "a very small price to pay," to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon.He said Iran's economy meanwhile was on the verge of collapse with galloping inflation, army salaries unpaid and a worthless currency. Trump also reiterated that Iranian negotiatorscontinued to engage keenly with the US behind the scenes while telling the public no such engagement was taking place.Analysts have grown somewhat immune to such messages with no significant progress on the single most pressing issue - the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz through which 20% of the world's oil and LNG-gas supplies flowed prior to the conflict.
