-- 瑞士股市連續第三個交易日下跌,瑞士市場指數週三收盤下跌0.51%。投資人在密切關注中東地緣政治局勢發展的同時,也評估即將發布的經濟數據。 丹麥銀行表示:「在伊朗因美國提出的不合理要求而拒絕進一步談判後,美國總統唐納德·特朗普在停火協議到期前無限期延長了停火協議。這標誌著特朗普態度的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,且霍爾茲海峽似乎佔據了上風,目前伊朗似乎仍未解決,目前伊朗似乎仍未解決,目前伊朗似乎還未解決問題,目前伊朗似乎仍未解決,目前伊朗似乎還未能解決,目前伊朗似乎仍未解決,目前伊朗似乎還未能解決,目前伊朗似乎仍未解決,目前伊朗似乎還未能解決,目前伊朗似乎仍未解決,目前伊朗似乎還未能解決,目前伊朗似乎仍未解決,目前伊朗似乎還未解決問題,目前伊朗似乎仍未解決,目前伊朗似乎仍未解決。 其他經濟新聞方面,英國3月年通膨率從2月的3%上升至3.3%,而核心通膨率則從3.2%小幅降至3.1%。 企業方面,ABB(ABBN.SW)公佈第一季歸屬於母公司股東的淨利年增18%,從11億美元增至13.2億美元。在當前地緣政治不確定性的背景下,ABB所有地區的訂單均達到兩位數成長,帶動營收年增18%,達到87.3億美元。這家瑞士電氣化和自動化公司的股價收盤上漲3.40%。 同時,瑞士聯邦委員會放寬了先前針對該國銀行資本規則的擬議調整,其中包括對具有系統重要性的瑞銀集團(UBSG.SW)的調整。此次調整將使瑞銀集團的一級普通股資本增加200億美元。聯邦委員會表示,已與瑞士國家銀行(SNBN.SW)和金融監管機構瑞士金融市場監管局(FINMA)就該方案達成一致,並指出「由於諮詢程序的結果,該方案比原計劃更為溫和」。 瑞銀集團就政府聲明回應稱:「瑞銀仍然強烈反對政府提出的方案,該方案過於極端,缺乏國際協調性,並且無視了大多數受訪者在政府諮詢中表達的擔憂。如果這些措施獲得通過,將對瑞士經濟產生深遠影響……瑞銀期待議會就擬議的外國股權待遇進行審議,以考慮眾多利益相關者在民主諮詢過程中提出的銀關。

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.

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.
