美国抵押贷款协会(MBA)数据显示,截至5月1日当周,美国抵押贷款申请量下降,抵押贷款利率飙升。

By

-- 根据抵押贷款银行家协会(MBA)周三公布的数据,截至5月1日当周,抵押贷款申请量下降4.4%,原因是30年期固定抵押贷款利率上升导致再融资活动和新购房活动双双减少。 此前,截至4月24日当周,整体贷款活动下降了1.6%。 再融资贷款申请量下降了5%,而经季节性调整后的新购房申请量下降了4%。 MBA指出,由于中东持续冲突的影响,贷款余额在832,750美元或以下的30年期固定抵押贷款的平均合同利率从前一周的6.37%升至6.45%,创一个月以来新高。 MBA副总裁兼副首席经济学家乔尔·坎表示:“正如预期,高利率和再融资优惠政策的收紧继续抑制贷款活动,再融资申请量较前一周再次下降——尤其是传统贷款和退伍军人事务部(VA)贷款。” “再融资申请占比为2025年8月以来最低。” Kan补充道,整体市场活动仍高于去年同期水平,购房贷款的平均规模也创历史新高。 “这一增长可能表明,鉴于经济形势的不确定性和利率上升,潜在的首次购房者和寻求低价房源的购房者可能最为犹豫不决。”Kan说道。

PayPal's Weaker Q2, Full-Year Guidance Reinforce Lack of Operating Inflection, BofA Says

PayPal's (PYPL) Q1 results topped estimates, with upside partially driven by share repurchases, but weaker-than-expected Q2 guidance and the decision to reiterate full-year guidance suggest no clear operating inflection, BofA Securities said Wednesday.Management reiterated confidence in PayPal's two-sided network, global scale and brands, while outlining more than $1.5 billion in run-rate cost savings over the next two to three years as part of a broader reset, according to the note.Investor reaction was tempered by a weaker near-term outlook for Q2 and fiscal 2026, the reinvestment of most savings rather than near-term earnings upside, and confirmation that business resegmentation will not begin until next year, the brokerage said.BofA updated its price objective to $53 from $55, based on a 9x multiple of its revised adjusted second-12-month earnings per share estimate of $5.86, up from $5.46.BofA maintained a neutral rating on PayPal.Price: $46.74, Change: $+0.26, Percent Change: +0.56%

Research Alert: CFRA Lifts View On Shares Of H.f. Sinclair To Buy From Hold

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Our 12-month target price of $87, raised $31, reflects a combination of relative valuation and DCF models. On a relative basis, we apply a 7.0x multiple of enterprise value to projected 2027 EBITDA. The applied multiple is above DINO's historical forward average, but below peers. We think a modest discount to peers is reasonable on the basis of below-average return on invested capital. Still, a multiple above normal levels for DINO is also reasonable, because we think refining margins will be high in both 2026 and 2027. This approach yields a value of $85 per share. Meanwhile, our DCF model, using medium-term free cash flow growth of 5%, 2% terminal growth, discounted at a WACC of 7.2%, yields intrinsic value of $89 per share. We lift our 2026 EPS estimate by $2.87 to $7.30 and 2027's by $1.66 to $6.26. In our view, DINO has above-average exposure to middle distillates, which is where we think refining margins will be relatively stronger. Shares yield 2.8%.
