RBCによると、マーベル・テクノロジーとアステラ・ラボは、アマゾンとアントロピックの提携に関連した長期的な需要増の恩恵を受ける見込み。

-- RBCキャピタル・マーケッツは火曜日のレポートで、マーベル・テクノロジー(MRVL)とアステラ・ラボ(ALAB)は、アマゾン(AMZN)とアントロピックの提携拡大に伴う長期的な需要増の恩恵を受ける可能性があるものの、3ナノメートルウェハーの供給逼迫により短期的な株価上昇は抑制される可能性があると指摘した。 マーベルは、アマゾン・ウェブ・サービス(AWS)にTrainiumチップ、イーサネットスイッチ、データ処理ユニット、光デジタル信号プロセッサを供給しているため、依然として有利な立場にある。光接続とTrainiumプログラムからの需要は、2028年度以降も力強い成長を支えると予想される、と同投資会社は述べた。 RBCは、供給制約が短期的な株価上昇を抑制する可能性があるため、マーベルの業績予想を現時点では据え置いたが、将来のTrainium4需要とマーベルの拡大する人工知能ネットワーク製品からさらなる成長の可能性を見出している。 RBCは、Astera Labsについて、Scorpio XスイッチのTrainium3ラック向け出荷量が第3四半期に本格化する見込みであり、これが下半期以降の収益増加に貢献する可能性があると指摘した。また、AsteraはUALinkおよびNVLink Fusion関連製品を通じてAWSにおける長期的な成長余地があり、他の大手クラウド顧客との契約獲得も同社の見通しを裏付けていると付け加えた。 RBCは、今回の買収により両社の2027年までの業績予測と長期的な成長見通しに対する確信が強まったとし、Marvellの目標株価を115ドルから170ドルに、Astera Labsの目標株価を225ドルから250ドルにそれぞれ引き上げ、投資判断を「アウトパフォーム」に据え置いた。

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Hold Opinion On Shares Of Otis Worldwide Corporation

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We cut our 12-month target to $90 from $100 following Q1 earnings, valuing OTIS shares at 19.6x our 2027 EPS outlook of $4.58 (down from $4.70; 2026 EPS view updated to $4.18 from $4.25), a modest discount to industrial machinery peers' and OTIS's five-year forward multiple average given unclear timing of ongoing margin headwinds. Service margins were disappointing in Q1 (contracting 160 bps to 23%) amid higher labor and material costs that came in above pricing. Weakness in China has yet to stabilize, though as noted in the past, this represents a shrinking area of OTIS's portfolio and will have a more limited effect going forward. Overall, the latest quarter was more of the same (China weakness/New Equipment decline), though with the added concern of margin quality being pressured within Service - the core profit driver for OTIS overall. While efforts to shore up profitability are underway, we see timing of recovery being uncertain.

Saudi Shares Start Week Higher; US-Iran Peace Talks Canceled

The Tadawul All Share Index closed Sunday 0.11% higher as investors assessed the latest updates regarding the conflict in the Middle East.US President Donald Trump said on his Truth Social account that the Pakistani trip for his envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, was canceled. The announcement dimmed the hopes for peace talks between Iran and the US to happen any time soon.Further to this, Israel launched an attack in Lebanon on April 25. The strikes, which targeted Hezbollah, resulted in four casualties and facility damage in Southern Lebanon.Back at home, Rabigh Refining and Petrochemical (SASE:2380), d/b/a Petro Rabigh, and Thob Al Aseel (SASE:4012) posted their financial results for the three months ended March 31. Petro Rabigh emerged from a loss in the first quarter, while Thob Al Aseel logged a higher net profit and revenue."The reason for net profit reported during the current quarter compared to a net loss recorded in the same quarter of last year was primarily attributable to improved product margins resulting from stronger refined product pricing and higher sales volumes," Petro Rabigh said in its report.Petro Rabigh rose 10% at closing, while Thob Al Aseel ticked down 1.59%.Meanwhile, the local calendar will be mostly empty except for the kingdom's preliminary figures for its GDP growth rate for the first quarter and the M3 money supply and private bank lending data for March on Thursday.

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Rating On Shares Of United Rentals Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We lift our 12-month target price to $1,100 from $950 following a strong first quarter, valuing shares at 20.5x our 2027 EPS outlook of $54.28 (in line with previous estimate; 2026 EPS also in line). We believe a higher multiple is justified given URI's firming market leadership within an expanding rental equipment industry. A robust Q1 beat enabled URI to raise its full-year revenue guidance to $16.9B-$17.4B and adjusted EBITDA to $7.625B-$7.875B, citing momentum heading into a busy season. With leverage well below historical levels, we believe accretive M&A deals could serve as a potential catalyst for additional guidance increases. Margin compression has been a sticky issue for URI, but Q1 indicated that pricing may have turned around and that headwinds are starting to ease as quarterly results begin to lap when tariff-related inflation began to pick-up. We remain cautious on margins, though are encouraged by signs of stabilization. New project activity is likely supporting pricing trends, in our view.
