-- 标普全球周四发布报告称,如果海湾战争和高油价持续,亚太地区约七分之一的未偿企业债券可能面临压力。 标普全球指出:“在我们设定的下行情景下,如果油价持续下跌,亚太地区15%的评级企业的信用质量可能会受到影响。而我们假设战争更快结束的基本情景下,这一比例为9%。” 标普全球表示,与其他大多数地区相比,亚太地区更容易受到中东相关能源冲击的影响,并且容易受到“能源和原材料供应中断、需求萎缩、利润率压缩和营运资本波动”的影响。 该信用评级机构指出,经霍尔木兹海峡运输的原油近90%流向亚洲,而波斯湾石油约占亚太地区能源进口的40%。 标普全球报告称,在亚洲,依赖航空燃油、柴油和液化石油气(LPG)的行业和企业“面临最高的短缺风险”。 受影响最大的行业包括化工、下游油气、航空、汽车制造、工程建设和建材。 就国家而言,标普全球表示,韩国、日本和中国大陆“已通过动用充足的储备,基本缓解了近期供应中断的影响”,但“其他国家不得不宣布各种措施来应对潜在的能源供应危机”。 如果高油价持续,不仅企业,一些主权债券也可能受到影响。 标普全球表示,由于受到石油冲击的影响,菲律宾的主权信用评级上周从“正面”下调至“稳定”的“BBB+”。

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.

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.
