EMEA天然ガス最新情報:イランが停戦協定に違反し、ホルムズ海峡で船舶を攻撃したことを受け、先物価格はまちまちの動き

By

-- ドナルド・トランプ大統領の「プロジェクト・フリーダム」初日、ホルムズ海峡で船舶へのミサイル攻撃があったとの報道を受け、欧州天然ガス先物市場は火曜日にまちまちの動きを見せた。 期近のオランダTTF先物価格は1.85%下落し、1メガワット時あたり47.25ユーロ(55.29ドル)となった一方、英国NBP先物価格は3.04%上昇し、115.51ペンス(1.56ドル)となった。市場は5月上旬の祝日のため月曜日は休場だった。 イランは月曜日、ホルムズ海峡を航行中のUAEの国営石油会社ADNOC傘下の船舶を攻撃し、紛争の危険なエスカレーションを招いた。 一方、米中央軍司令官のブラッド・クーパー提督は月曜日、戦略的に重要なこの海峡の航行を円滑にするため、「数十隻の船舶と海運会社」に働きかけたと述べた。 「我々がこの防衛任務を支援することは、海上封鎖を維持する上で、地域安全保障と世界経済にとって不可欠だ」と彼は述べた。 イランのセイエド・アッバス・アラグチ外相は、Xへの投稿で「政治危機に軍事的解決策はない」と述べ、トランプ政権の「プロジェクト・フリーダム」を「プロジェクト・デッドロック」と揶揄した。 イラン国営通信社タスニム通信の報道によると、モハマド・バゲル・ガリバフ国会議長は火曜日、ホルムズ海峡で「新たな構図」が出現したと述べ、現状の責任は米国とその同盟国にあると断言した。 ホルムズ海峡モニターによると、過去24時間で12隻の船舶が海峡を通過し、海峡の交通量は増加した。しかし、これは依然として通常の1日平均138を大幅に下回っています。 ANZのシニア商品ストラテジスト、ダニエル・ハインズ氏によると、世界のLNG輸出量は約2年ぶりの低水準に達しており、カタールからの出荷減少分は米国とカナダからの輸出増加によって部分的に相殺されているとのことです。 これは欧州市場にとって重要な時期に起こっています。欧州ではガス在庫が枯渇状態から回復し始めており、ガスインフラ・ヨーロッパ(Gas Infrastructure Europe)によると、現在の在庫率はわずか33.79%で、前年同期の40.73%、過去5年間の同時期の平均46%を大きく下回っています。 INGのアナリストは火曜日のレポートで、欧州とアジアのLNG市場は、現在進行中のホルムズ危機による「供給への影響規模を過小評価している」との見方を堅持していると述べています。 アナリストらによると、ホルムズ海峡を経由したLNG供給の喪失を相殺または代替するためにできることはほとんどなく、唯一の手段は「需要の減少」だが、そのためには価格の上昇が必要だと彼らは述べた。

ISM Services Survey Shows Growth Deceleration; S&P Data Indicate Return to Expansion

Two surveys released Tuesday painted a mixed picture of the US services sector in April, with Institute for Supply Management data showing a deceleration in growth and an S&P Global (SPGI) report indicating a return to expansion.The ISM's purchasing managers' index fell to 53.6 last month from 54 in March. The consensus was for a 53.7 print in a survey compiled by Bloomberg. A reading above 50 indicates the services sector economy is generally expanding.The business activity index rose to 55.9 in April from 53.9 the month before, while the gauge for new orders decreased to 53.5 from 60.6. The employment measure increased to 48 from 45.2, but remained in contraction territory for a second consecutive month, the ISM survey showed."The services sector continues to expand, but the sharp cooling in new orders alongside still-subdued employment momentum suggests growth may be becoming less durable," TD Economics Senior Economist Vikram Rai said in a note.The price index was unchanged at 70.7, staying at its highest level since October 2022, according to the ISM survey."With prices holding at their highest level since late 2022, today's report reinforces concerns that services sector inflation remains sticky," Rai said. "Combined with resilient activity levels, this supports the case for the (Federal Reserve) to remain patient, particularly as energy, freight, and labor costs continue to feed through to prices."Last week, the Fed kept its benchmark lending rate steady for a third straight meeting, saying the Middle East conflict is fueling uncertainty around the US economic outlook.Separately, S&P Global said Tuesday its services PMI gauge rose to 51 in April from 49.8 the month prior, though growth was "well below" the series average.New business intakes fell for the first time in two years, as the Middle East war and inflation weighed on demand. Employment increased "slightly," while confidence in the outlook improved, according to the data provider."A further increase in input cost inflation reflected not just higher fuel prices but a widening spread of goods and services rising in price, as well as higher wages, which will feed through to consumer price inflation in the coming months," S&P Global Market Intelligence Chief Business Economist Chris Williamson said. "The scale of the price rises will put pressure on the Fed to prevent higher inflation becoming entrenched."On Friday, ISM and S&P surveys showed that the US manufacturing sector saw continued growth in April, though inflationary pressures intensified amid disruptions caused by the Middle East conflict.Price: $423.13, Change: $-1.62, Percent Change: -0.38%
