-- 週四，原油價格上漲，觸及四年高位，因為市場擔憂中東地區的敵對行動可能再次爆發，並延長該地區的供應中斷。 布蘭特原油價格最新上漲2.9%，至每桶121.48美元；西德州中質原油價格上漲1.5%，至每桶108.51美元。此前，路透社週四報道稱，Axios引述匿名消息人士的話報道稱，美國總統川普將聽取有關對伊朗實施一系列軍事打擊計劃的簡報，以推動伊朗重返核談判。 此外，路透社引述一位白宮官員的話報導，川普還與石油公司討論如何減輕美國可能實施長達數月的封鎖所帶來的影響。 報告指出，油價持續上漲可能導致全球通膨再次飆升，並推高燃油價格。路透社引述石油經紀公司PVM的約翰·埃文斯的話說：“如果你認為布倫特原油價格沒有潛力達到每桶150美元，那你現在最好別再往下看了。” IG市場分析師托尼·西卡莫爾在一份報告中指出：“伊朗衝突近期內得到解決或霍爾木茲海峽重新開放的前景仍然黯淡。”

Research Alert: Caterpillar Q1: Construction Machinery Restocking Enables Strong Results
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Caterpillar's (CAT) Q1 earnings beat expectations with EPS of $5.47 vs. the consensus of $4.64, as sales surged 22% Y/Y to $17.4B, supported by $2.3B from higher volumes and $426M from pricing. Despite tariff headwinds that pressured operating margins lower by 30 bps, operating profit rose 20% on strong sales growth. Growth stemmed from CAT's cyclical Construction segment rather than the increasingly important Power & Energy business. Management guided tariff costs at $2.2B-$2.4B for 2026. Construction Industries led with sales rising 38% to $7.2B and segment profit surging 50% to $1.54B, with margins expanding 160 bps to 21.4% despite tariff pressures from dealer restocking. Power & Energy maintained momentum with 22% sales growth to $7B; however, margins compressed 170 bps to 20.6% as tariff costs weighed, while power generation sales increased 41% to $2.8B on data center demand. Resource Industries disappointed, with segment profit plummeting 39% to $378M as margins compressed 700 bps to 10.0%.

Research Alert: Mo: Q1 Well Ahead Of Expectations; Guidance Unchanged
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Altria (MO) posted Q1 adjusted EPS of $1.32 vs. $1.23 (+7%), well above the $1.25 consensus. Net revenue rose 5.3% to $4.76B ($180M above consensus) as higher price realizations fully offset lower volumes, which declined 2.3% for smokeable products and 3.1% for oral tobacco. MO maintained 2026 adjusted EPS guidance of $5.56-$5.72, the midpoint of which is ahead of the $5.62 consensus and implies Y/Y growth of 2.5%-5.5% from the $5.42 earned in 2025. The company expects more balanced growth between the first and second halves of 2026, with guidance now contemplating moderated e-vapor industry growth impacts and increased macroeconomic uncertainty. MO repurchased $280M in shares and paid $1.8B in dividends during the quarter. Despite the big Q1 beat, MO shares are currently trading flat in pre-market trading, likely reflecting concerns as to why the company didn't raise full-year guidance considering the strength of Q1 results. However, we note that MO has a long history of providing conservative guidance.
