歐洲、中東和非洲石油市場動態:伊朗攻擊阿聯酋及霍爾木茲海峽船隻,原油價格上漲

By

-- 在週一盤後交易中,伊朗對阿聯酋發動飛彈和無人機攻擊,並擊中霍爾木茲海峽的船隻,加劇了人們對全球能源供應進一步中斷的擔憂,受此影響,歐洲、中東和非洲地區原油期貨價格上漲。 布蘭特原油期貨上漲6.06%,至每桶114.75美元;穆爾班原油期貨下跌2.64%,至每桶106.50美元。 盛寶銀行策略師週一在一份報告中指出,由於市場關注美國幫助滯留在霍爾木茲海峽的船隻脫困的計畫能否緩解供應壓力,原油價格仍然是宏觀經濟的錨點。 週一,阿聯酋國防部表示,伊朗向該國發射了四枚巡航飛彈。該部在聲明中稱,其中三枚飛彈在其領海上空被阿聯酋防空系統成功攔截,第四枚飛彈落入海中。 富查伊拉媒體辦公室在X網站上發布消息稱,伊朗無人機襲擊導致該市石油工業區發生大火。據報道,無人機攻擊的目標是富查伊拉的VTTI石油碼頭,同時,德黑蘭加大了在霍爾木茲海峽附近的攻擊力道。 此前,阿聯酋指責伊朗襲擊了其國有能源公司阿布達比國家石油公司(ADNOC)旗下的一艘試圖通過霍爾木茲海峽的船隻。 ADNOC物流與服務公司(ADNOC Logistics and Services)在社交媒體上發文稱:“事發時,該船並未載有任何貨物。” 這次襲擊發生在伊朗革命衛隊海軍發布地圖之後,該地圖稱伊朗正在擴大其在霍爾木茲海峽附近的控制範圍,將阿聯酋的富查伊拉港和霍爾法坎港以及阿聯酋烏姆蓋萬酋長國的海岸線納入其中。 同時,局勢升級源自於川普總統週日宣布,美軍將從週一開始嘗試恢復霍爾木茲海峽的通行,並幫助滯留在該戰略水道的船隻離開。 美國中央司令部表示,週一有兩艘懸掛美國國旗的商船通過了霍爾木茲海峽,並補充說,軍方正在積極努力恢復商業航運。 然而,伊朗伊斯蘭革命衛隊表示,沒有任何商船或油輪通過霍爾木茲海峽,並駁斥了美國的說法,稱其「毫無根據,純屬捏造」。 英國海事貿易行動中心週一表示,週末期間,兩艘商船在霍爾木茲海峽及其附近海域遭到襲擊。一艘油輪在富查伊拉以北海域被砲彈擊中,一艘散裝貨船在伊朗海岸附近遭到數艘小型船隻襲擊。 在供應方面,歐佩克+在周日舉行的自其關鍵成員國阿聯酋退出以來的首次會議上,同意將石油日產量提高18.8萬桶。 荷蘭國際集團(ING)策略師表示:「鑑於預計55%的增產將來自波斯灣地區的生產商,這一增長不太可能實現。」他們還補充說,在海峽持續動盪的情況下,這種情況不會發生。

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Opinion On Shares Of Magna International Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We lower our 12-month target by $10 to $65, based on a 2027 P/E of 9.2x, which represents a justified discount to the stock's 10-year average forward P/E of 10.7x. We maintain our adjusted EPS estimates of USD6.70 for 2026 and USD7.10 for 2027. MG posted Q1 adjusted EPS of USD1.38 versus USD0.78 in Q1 2025 (+77% Y/Y), well ahead of the USD1.01 consensus. The beat was driven by much stronger-than-expected sales and margins: revenue rose 3.1% to USD10.38B (USD110M above consensus), and adjusted EBIT margin expanded 190 bps to 5.4% (120 bps above consensus). While the company did not raise full-year EPS guidance, we think a raise is now more likely given the magnitude of the beat. Given MG's broad product diversification across the automotive parts and equipment space, and its status as the largest North American auto supplier, we think the strength of its Q1 results has positive implications for the broader sub-industry, which has been struggling from a performance standpoint given macroeconomic concerns.

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Sell Rating Shares Of Avnet Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We raise our target price by $10 to $62, based on rolling our valuation forward to our newly initiated FY 28 (Jun.) EPS estimate of $7.79, with a multiple of 8x, below AVT's three- and five-year historical averages of 9x-10x. After stronger-than-expected Mar-Q results and a positive inflection in the semiconductor distribution cycle, we increase our EPS estimates to $4.82 (from $4.55) for FY 26 and to $6.57 (from $6.09) for FY 27. We believe our multiple discount is warranted by the company's continued shift into lower-margin Asia (now 49% of sales), which creates a structural profitability headwind. This, combined with persistent industry competition and geopolitical risks, tempers our outlook. While we recognize tailwinds from AI demand and digital investments, we view the recent high-growth period and management's guidance expectation of continued outsized memory pricing growth as unsustainable, and we expect a return to a more normalized trajectory in FY 27-FY 28.
