-- RBCキャピタル・マーケッツは、アリツィア(ATZ.TO)の目標株価を150ドルから175ドルに引き上げた。 アナリストのアイリーン・ナッテル氏は、5月7日に発表されるバンクーバーを拠点とする衣料品小売大手アリツィアの第4四半期決算を前に、同社の株価に対する「アウトパフォーム」のレーティングを維持した。 「販売チャネルの調査、競合他社の業績、ホリデーシーズンの業績に関する経営陣のコメントから、年初来の好調な勢いは第4四半期以降も継続する可能性が高い」とナッテル氏は顧客向けレポートで述べた。 「成長アルゴリズムとブランド力への信頼の高まり、米国における浸透率の上昇と長期的な成長余地、そして8月の国際ショッピングサイトのリニューアルと10月下旬の新規モバイルアプリのリリースによるデジタルオプションの強化が、業績予想に反映されている」とナッテル氏は付け加えた。

EMEA Natural Gas Update: Futures Rise Nearly 2% With Markets Skeptical of Trump's Plan
European natural gas futures were up on Monday, despite US President Donald Trump's recent plans to escort ships through the Strait of Hormuz.The front-month Dutch TTF contract was up 1.69% to 46.54 euros ($54.49) per megawatt-hour, while the UK NBP contract was closed due to the Early May Bank Holiday.In a Truth Social post on Saturday, Trump said that US forces would use their "best efforts" to get the ships and crew stranded in the Persian Gulf safely out of the Strait. Referring to it as "Project Freedom," Trump said that this would begin on Monday morning.Yet, European natural gas prices continued to rally, as ING analysts noted that the "market does not seem convinced by the plan," especially since it does little to enable inbound traffic. This would only amount to "temporary relief" the note said, allowing floating storage to leave the Gulf.Meanwhile, Iran has received a response to its latest proposal from the US, with Tehran's 14-point peace plan calling for an end to the hostilities between the two nations within the next 30 days, according to the Tasnim News Agency. The US, however, is yet to officially confirm that it has responded to the proposal.Additionally, supply concerns in global gas markets have also been subdued due to "the current shoulder season," according to Daniel Hynes, a senior commodity strategist at ANZ. He also noted that this lull is giving markets a bit of breathing room to properly assess the impact of ongoing disruptions.The Strait of Hormuz, which accounts for one-fifth of global LNG flows, remained effectively closed for the tenth week running, with just 12 vessels transiting over the past 24 hours, according to the Hormuz Strait Monitor.At the same time, European gas inventories are still depleted going into refilling season, at just 33.42% of capacity, compared to 40.29% during this period last year, according to Gas Infrastructure Europe.

Errington Metals Further Defines Errington Zone at Sudbury Project With 2025 Drilling
Errington Metals (EM.V) has better defined the size and shape of the Errington mineralized zone, which is part of its Sudbury Basin Project in Ontario, the company said on Monday.The Errington zone remains open along strike and at depth (down-dip) with priority areas identified for follow-up exploration drilling. Multiple holes also intersected copper- and gold-rich stringer mineralization, and elevated copper values within zinc-rich massive sulphide intervals, a statement added.Key intercepts from the 2025 diamond drilling program include 23.8 m grading 3.98% copper, 5.76% zinc, 2.61 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and and 130.2 g/t silver.Errington said the results improve confidence in the continuity of mineralization and will feed into 3D geological modelling and an updated mineral resource estimate targeted for the second half of this year.Errington shares closed down $0.04, to $2.96, on Friday on the TSX Venture Exchange.
