-- 美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周一在Truth Social网站上发帖称,美国海军已开始对霍尔木兹海峡实施封锁,并警告伊朗船只若靠近将面临立即被摧毁的风险。 他在周一的帖子中写道:“警告:如果这些船只中的任何一艘靠近我们的封锁线,它们将被立即摧毁。”他还补充说,回应将是“迅速而残酷的”。 特朗普表示,伊朗海军舰队已被“彻底摧毁”,约有158艘舰艇“沉入海底”,并指出仅剩少量快速攻击舰艇。 他的警告针对的是那些仍靠近美国阵地的剩余船只。 特朗普补充说,此次封锁行动的策略与禁毒行动类似,他表示美国使用“与打击海上毒贩相同的杀戮手段”,并声称“98.2%通过海路或海上进入美国的毒品已被拦截”。 此前,美伊周末在伊斯兰堡举行的会谈未能取得进展,双方未能解决关键分歧。 会谈破裂后,特朗普周日表示,伊朗必须迅速采取行动,并警告说:“他们最好立即开始疏通这条国际水道。” 他还补充说,美国海军将强制执行这一行动,称“美国海军将立即开始封锁所有船只。” 据多家媒体报道,以色列总理内塔尼亚胡警告称,停火协议可能很快结束,并支持特朗普的封锁计划。 特朗普周日接受福克斯新闻采访时表示,石油和汽油价格可能会在11月中期选举前保持高位。据报道,特朗普告诉福克斯新闻:“价格可能会保持不变,或者略高一些,但应该差不多。” 美国中央司令部周一发布指令,宣布将于美国东部时间周一上午10点开始封锁所有进出伊朗港口的船只。 声明称:“封锁将对所有进出伊朗港口和沿海地区的船只一视同仁地执行,包括所有位于阿拉伯湾和阿曼湾的伊朗港口。” 中东穆尔班原油基准价格早盘下跌4.80%,收于每桶102.87美元。相比之下,布伦特原油上涨5.46%,至每桶100.40美元;WTI原油期货也上涨5.27%,至每桶101.66美元。

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Hold Opinion On Shares Of Otis Worldwide Corporation
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We cut our 12-month target to $90 from $100 following Q1 earnings, valuing OTIS shares at 19.6x our 2027 EPS outlook of $4.58 (down from $4.70; 2026 EPS view updated to $4.18 from $4.25), a modest discount to industrial machinery peers' and OTIS's five-year forward multiple average given unclear timing of ongoing margin headwinds. Service margins were disappointing in Q1 (contracting 160 bps to 23%) amid higher labor and material costs that came in above pricing. Weakness in China has yet to stabilize, though as noted in the past, this represents a shrinking area of OTIS's portfolio and will have a more limited effect going forward. Overall, the latest quarter was more of the same (China weakness/New Equipment decline), though with the added concern of margin quality being pressured within Service - the core profit driver for OTIS overall. While efforts to shore up profitability are underway, we see timing of recovery being uncertain.

The strikes, which targeted Hezbollah, resulted in four casualties and facility damage in Southern Lebanon.Back at home, Rabigh Refining and Petrochemical (SASE:2380), d/b/a Petro Rabigh, and Thob Al Aseel (SASE:4012) posted their financial results for the three months ended March 31. Petro Rabigh emerged from a loss in the first quarter, while Thob Al Aseel logged a higher net profit and revenue."The reason for net profit reported during the current quarter compared to a net loss recorded in the same quarter of last year was primarily attributable to improved product margins resulting from stronger refined product pricing and higher sales volumes," Petro Rabigh said in its report.Petro Rabigh rose 10% at closing, while Thob Al Aseel ticked down 1.59%.Meanwhile, the local calendar will be mostly empty except for the kingdom's preliminary figures for its GDP growth rate for the first quarter and the M3 money supply and private bank lending data for March on Thursday.
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.
