DAX指数が下落、ドイツ製造業の成長が鈍化

By

-- ドイツ株式市場は、メーデーの連休明けの月曜日に下落した。投資家は、中東情勢の緊迫化と米国による新たな関税措置の脅威を背景に、最新の国内製造業景況調査データを精査した。 終値は、主要株価指数であるDAX指数が1.24%安となった。 S&Pグローバルによると、ドイツの製造業PMI(購買担当者景気指数)は、前月の46カ月ぶりの高水準である52.2から4月は51.4に低下した。速報値は51.2だった。中東紛争の継続に伴う景況感の悪化により、新規受注と生産の伸びが相殺され、製造業の拡大ペースが鈍化した。 「需要と供給の両面における懸念の高まりを反映し、今後1年間の活動が減少すると予想する企業が、増加を予想する企業を上回っています。インフレ圧力の急上昇とそれに伴う購買力の低下が需要を抑制するとの懸念があり、4月の工場出荷価格インフレ率は3年以上ぶりの高水準に急上昇しました。同時に、供給遅延が2022年半ば以来の水準に達しているため、需要状況に関わらず生産が縮小されるリスクがあります」と、S&Pグローバル・マーケット・インテリジェンスのエコノミクス・アソシエイト・ディレクター、フィル・スミス氏は述べています。 中東情勢に関して言えば、イラン海軍はホルムズ海峡で米軍艦を撃退したと主張しており、ジャスク港付近を航行中の米軍艦にミサイル2発を命中させたとしています。ロイター通信は国営メディアの報道を引用し、イランが外国海軍に対し、ホルムズ海峡に侵入すれば「断固たる対応」を取ると警告したと報じています。この報道は、ドナルド・トランプ米大統領が日曜日、ワシントンが水路で立ち往生している中立国の商船を支援する計画だと述べたことを受けてのものだ。 関税面では、トランプ大統領は2026年5月1日、欧州連合(EU)製自動車への関税を今週から15%から25%に引き上げると発表した。EUが2025年7月の貿易枠組み協定を遵守していないと主張したためだ。トランプ大統領は記者団に対し、この措置は欧州ブランドに生産拠点の国内化をより迅速に促すことを目的としていると述べた。 こうした状況を受け、ドイツの自動車メーカーであるメルセデス・ベンツ・グループ(MBG.F)、BMW(BMW.F)、フォルクスワーゲン(VOW.F)、ポルシェ・オートモービル・ホールディング(PAH3.F)の株価は、Xetraでそれぞれ3.35%、2.44%、2.22%、0.94%下落した。 一方、オーストリア連邦経済・エネルギー・観光省が、ドイツのエネルギー技術企業であるシーメンス・エナジーが、変圧器製造と新たなサービス工場の開発を含む2つのプロジェクトに1億5500万ユーロを投資する計画を発表したことを受け、シーメンス・エナジー(ENR.F)の株価は2.09%下落した。

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Opinion On Shares Of Ir

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We revise our 12-month target to $90 from $100, following IR's Q1 earnings release, valuing shares at 23x our 2027 EPS outlook of $3.93 (down from $3.97; 2026 EPS estimate unchanged), near IR's long-term historical forward average and peer multiples. While IR's adjusted EPS of $0.77 (+7% Y/Y) beat expectations, the underlying results revealed a challenging quarter for organic sales and order growth. Total revenue grew 8% on acquisitions and FX, but organic revenue dipped 0.3%, reflecting a sharp divergence between the company's two segments. The Precision & Science Tech segment performed strongly, with 4% organic growth and margin expansion, while the larger Industrial Tech segment faced a 2% sales decline and 210 bps of margin compression from volume and tariff headwinds. 2026 earnings guidance is back-half weighted, which we see carrying execution risk, as there is little margin for error. Looking ahead, Q3 will be a critical quarter for IR as a broader recovery is expected to gain traction.

Payment-Focused Companies' Results Could Largely Meet or Top Views With Cautious Consumer Outlook, RBC Says

Upcoming results of several key payment-focused and financial technology companies are likely to either meet or exceed expectations, though firms are seen having a cautious outlook on the consumer amid war-driven inflationary pressures, RBC Capital Markets said in a note e-mailed Monday.PayPal (PYPL), Fiserv (FISV), Shift4 Payments (FOUR), Affirm (AFRM), Block (XYZ), Corpay (CPAY), Global Payments (GPN), Fidelity National Information Services (FIS), Jack Henry & Associates (JKHY), Rocket (RKT), Toast (TOST), and NCR Voyix (VYX) are among the companies scheduled to report their latest quarterly financial results this week."We believe that the payments group will deliver in-line to better-than-expected results, except for (Shift4), which we believe will be impacted by seasonally weaker and Middle East-impacted Global Blue; PayPal, and (NCR)," RBC analyst Daniel Perlin said in a note to clients. "While we expect higher tax returns to benefit spending trends this quarter, we expect management teams to have a cautious outlook on the consumer on the basis of higher fuel prices and a general inflationary environment impacting discretionary spending."High recurring revenue and a strong demand backdrop likely insulate Jack Henry and Fidelity National from broader economic volatility, according to the brokerage. "The macro is not in the driver seat for them, and we expect management teams to continue reinforcing their view that the cores have a data and compliance moat from (artificial intelligence) disruption," Perlin said.Recently, Visa's (V) latest quarterly results showed payments volume growth in the US, while Mastercard (MA) saw purchase volume growth in that market, according to RBC. This indicates that restaurant and retail has likely "held up," though cross-border and travel continue to be areas of caution, Perlin said.PayPal's branded checkout performance in the first quarter will likely be pressured due to exposure to the Middle East conflict and pullback from low-income consumers. However, the investors will be focused on the company's potential future strategic direction instead of just the quarterly results, according to the note.RBC expects Global Payments to face "modest" headwinds in the first half of 2026 due to its exposure to Middle Eastern airlines and the ongoing conflict in the region. Despite having minimal Middle East ties, inflation and small- and medium-business exposure could challenge Fiserv in the near term.Affirm is seeing robust consumer demand despite high fuel costs, RBC said. "Affirm's potential Middle East exposure is more of a knock-on effect associated with higher oil prices crowding out overall consumer spending, and with (Affirm's) tilt toward lower-end consumers, it's probable to assume some potential weakness in that cohort."Block's Cash App Borrow offering is likely to see strong demand amid consumer pressure, according to the brokerage. "As for (the first quarter), intra-quarter conversations suggest overall volume trends in both Cash App and Seller appear to be holding up, with additional levers benefiting (the second quarter)," Perlin said.Energy prices have surged as the US-Israel war with Iran curtailed shipments through the crucial Strait of Hormuz. The conflict paused following a recent ceasefire between Washington and Tehran, but a framework for a permanent truce is yet to be reached. The war started at the end of February.Price: $50.52, Change: $+0.08, Percent Change: +0.16%
