沙烏地阿拉伯股市收低;美國延長與伊朗的停火協議

-- 週三,沙烏地阿拉伯證券交易所綜合指數(Tadawul All Share Index)收跌0.88%,霍爾木茲海峽的持續封鎖蓋過了脆弱的美伊停火協議延期帶來的利多消息。 美國總統川普在其Truth Social帳號上宣布,與伊朗的停火協議將無限期延長,並將繼續封鎖伊朗港口,直至這個中東國家提出「統一方案」。 然而,伊朗議會議長穆罕默德·巴格爾·卡利巴夫的高級顧問馬赫迪·穆罕默迪暗示,這項聲明可能是美國為發動突襲而設下的政治陰謀。 丹麥銀行在一份報告中指出:「在中東衝突中,由於伊朗因美國提出的不合理要求而拒絕進一步談判,川普在停火協議即將到期前無限期延長了停火協議。這標誌著川普態度的180度大轉彎,因為他此前曾排除延長停火的可能性,並暗示將採取軍事行動。據報道,伊朗並未要求停火,並未停風問題。 在國內,沙烏地阿拉伯3月的建築成本指數較2月的1.4%上漲了2%。此次上漲主要歸因於非住宅和住宅建築成本的成長。 在企業方面,Arriyadh Development(SASE:4150,簡稱Ardco)同意將其在Al Arabi Riyadh Development Real Estate Fund的股份出售給Sumou Holding Co.。這家房地產集團將以1.845億沙特里亞爾的價格出售其10%的股份。 Ardco股票收盤下跌0.11%。

Clinuvel Pharmaceuticals (ASX:CUV) is unlikely to seek regulatory approval for Scenesse in vitiligo until the Phase 3 CUV105 and CUV107 clinical trials are completed, according to a Friday Jefferies note.The company said on Friday that the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has proposed evaluating the company's Scenesse drug for the treatment of systemic vitiligo based on a "totality of evidence" regulatory approach.Jefferies said that the EMA's decision is a positive for the company because of the high unmet medical need for Vitiligo treatment.The investment firm has pushed back its revenue expectations from Scenesse in vitiligo, which is now expected to begin in the second half of fiscal 2029 rather than fiscal 2028.Jefferies kept a buy rating on Clinuvel and cut its price target to AU$39.20 from AU$40.50.
