-- 由于国内企业面临燃料成本上涨,日本3月份生产者价格指数(PPI)小幅走高。 日本央行周五公布的数据显示,3月份日本生产者价格指数(PPI)同比上涨2.6%,高于2月份的2.1%。 3月份PPI环比上涨0.8%,其中石油和煤炭分项指数PPI环比上涨7.7%,反映出3月初霍尔木兹海峡关闭后全球燃料价格的飙升。 全球约20%的石油产量经由霍尔木兹海峡运输,而该海峡已被伊朗实际封锁。 日本PPI衡量的是国内生产者在工厂门口与大型买家进行交易时所获得的商品售价。它与衡量零售场所价格的消费者价格指数(CPI)有所不同。 日本央行报告称,3月份其他PPI分项指数普遍波动不大,但纺织品价格环比上涨3%。 日本生产者价格指数(PPI)在疫情期间加速上涨,于2022年12月达到峰值,同比上涨10.6%。 近期,日本PPI在2025年初同比上涨超过4%,但此后增速逐渐放缓,直至3月份的报告。 PPI被认为是衡量一个国家消费价格水平的重要指标之一,因为零售商试图通过PPI来收回进货成本。 日本央行设定的核心消费者价格指数(CPI-core)年通胀目标为2%,该指数剔除了生鲜食品价格。据官方报告,该指标2月份同比上涨1.6%,低于2025年11月2%的涨幅。 日本央行下一次政策会议定于4月下旬举行。各国央行行长将面临油价上涨引发的通货膨胀,但同时也将面临经济增长乏力,并可能因燃料价格上涨而受到掣肘。

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Buy Opinion On Shares Of The Hartford Insurance Group, Inc.
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We trim our 12-month target price by $8 to $155, valuing HIG shares at 11.3x our 2026 operating EPS estimate of $13.75 (cut by $0.45) and at 10.6x our 2027 EPS estimate of $14.65 (cut by $0.30), vs. the shares' one-year average forward multiple of 10.3x and peer average of 13x. Q1 EPS of $3.09 vs. $2.20 a year ago missed our $3.60 estimate and $3.39 consensus view. Operating revenue growth of 6.2% was in line with our 6%-10% forecast, amid 5.3% earned premium growth, 13% higher net investment income, and 7.9% fee revenue growth. Q1 written premium growth of 4% and full-year 2025 growth of 7% bode well for 2026 revenue trends as premiums are earned. Underwriting results improved significantly, with Personal Lines combined ratio improving to 87.7% from 106.1% and underlying combined ratio to 85.0% from 89.7%. Business Insurance combined ratio was stable at 94.8%. Weighing the Q1 EPS miss with HIG's decent top-line growth and discounted valuation to peers, we view the shares as undervalued.
Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Strong Buy Opinion On Shares Of Baker Hughes
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We raise our 12-month target price by $14 to $82, reflecting a combination of our sum-of-the-parts (SOTP) and DCF models. For our SOTP model, we presume the oilfield services business (about 50% of BKR's franchise) to be valued at about 10x projected 2027 EBITDA (in line with major peers) and its industrial energy technology business (the other 50%) valued at 14x projected 2027 EBITDA (in line with the peer median). This blended approach, yielding a 12x multiple, implies a value of $73 per share. Meanwhile, our DCF model, using medium-term free cash flow growth of 5% per year, terminal growth of 2.5%, discounted at a WACC of 6.3%, yields intrinsic value of $91 per share. We cut our 2026 EPS estimate by $0.47 to $2.48, but we raise 2027's by $0.07 to $3.24. We acknowledge that the oilfield services business is likely to struggle in 2026 owing to the U.S.-Iran conflict, but the IET business appears quite robust and likely to be a source of both accelerating revenue growth and margins.
