-- イランが米国との交渉に向けた新たな外交提案を提出したとの報道を受け、世界のエネルギー市場は金曜日も緊張状態が続いている。 ブレント原油先物価格は0.3%下落し、1バレル=110.71ドルとなった。ムルバン原油先物価格は1.5%下落し、1バレル=106.39ドルとなった。 イラン国営通信(IRNA)によると、この最新の提案は木曜夜遅く、パキスタンの仲介者を通じて米国当局者に伝えられたという。 しかし、根本的な二重封鎖が続く中、原油価格は週間ベースで上昇基調を維持している。 サクソバンクのアナリストは、「ブレント原油価格は木曜に戦時中最高値を更新した後も高止まりしており、米国とイランによるホルムズ海峡封鎖が近いうちに解除される兆しはなく、供給逼迫は長期化し悪化している」と述べている。 ホルムズ海峡封鎖が3ヶ月目に突入する中、イランの新最高指導者と米国政権がそれぞれ強硬姿勢を強めていることから、迅速な解決の見通しは薄れつつある。 イランの新最高指導者、モジタバ・ハメネイ師は、テヘランの政策における強硬路線への転換を示唆した。サクソバンクのレポートによると、ハメネイ師はイラン・イスラム共和国が核兵器やミサイル技術を放棄することはないと断言し、ホルムズ海峡の支配権を維持する意向を明確に表明した。 同時に、ドナルド・トランプ米大統領は、原油価格の上昇圧力にもかかわらず、イラン港湾封鎖に対する強硬姿勢を維持している。 一方、ペーパー市場における様子見の期間は終わりを迎えつつあるようだ。 ANZのアナリストは、「紛争開始以来初めて供給逼迫が顕在化し始め、ペーパー市場と現物市場の乖離は縮小している」と述べている。

Research Alert: CFRA Lowers Opinion On Shares Of Hyatt Hotels Corporation To Hold From Buy
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We lower our 12-month target by $9 to $180 on a 2026 EV/EBITDA multiple of 17x (up from 15x), a premium to its 15x three-year forward average multiple. We lower our 2026 EPS estimate to $2.75 from $3.71 and raise our 2027 estimate to $4.34 from $4.26, while our 2026 adjusted EBITDA estimate of $1.18 billion is near the midpoint of management's guidance. Following Q1 results that beat estimates and included raised full-year RevPAR guidance, we downgrade shares from Buy to Hold. We believe the setup is less favorable with shares now trading at a 10% premium to their three-year average forward multiple. Our multiple reflects a discount to hotel peers given H's lower scale and higher leverage, though this is offset by H's exposure to luxury leisure travel, which is showing momentum with net package RevPAR up 7.4% in Q1 and contributing to outsized RevPAR growth. However, geopolitical disruptions affecting H's Distribution segment have lowered our 2026 EBITDA outlook. At current levels, we see balanced risk/reward.
Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Sell Opinion On Shares Of Patterson-uti Energy, Inc.
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 $9.50, raised from $6.50, reflects a 4.8x multiple of enterprise value to projected '27 EBITDA, about in line with PTEN's historical forward average. Our DCF model, using a WACC of 7.7% and terminal growth of 2.0%, also finds shares to be slightly overvalued. We narrow our projected '26 operating loss per share by $0.13 to $0.21, and similarly, '27's by $0.27 to $0.02. Shares are trading about 20% above PTEN's historical forward average on EBITDA, and the bull case for the company rests on a near-term inflection point in its Completion Services segment (a segment that comprised 37% of Q1 2026 EBITDA before corporate expenses), in our view. To be fair, privately-held E&Ps do appear to be ramping up spending in response to the surge in crude oil prices, but we do not anticipate similar behavior from the public E&Ps until at least 2027, and possibly not to the degree that PTEN might hope.
