RBCによると、大手銀行は第1四半期に資本市場で好調な業績を上げた。

-- RBCキャピタル・マーケッツは木曜日に顧客向けに送付したレポートの中で、米大手銀行は第1四半期に予想を上回る資本市場収益を計上したと発表した。これは、アドバイザリー業務と株式取引の堅調な伸びが要因となっている。 同証券会社によると、JPモルガン・チェース(JPM)、バンク・オブ・アメリカ(BAC)、シティグループ(C)、ゴールドマン・サックス(GS)、モルガン・スタンレー(MS)の資本市場収益合計は前年同期比で約20%増加した。 RBCによれば、アドバイザリー収益はゴールドマン・サックスが牽引し、68%の大幅増となった。投資運用手数料総額は前年同期比で31%増加し、株式資本市場の好調が寄与した。 RBCのグローバル金融リサーチ共同責任者であるジェラード・キャシディ氏はレポートの中で、「2025年に発表され、(2026年第1四半期に)完了した大型案件によりアドバイザリー収益が増加し、株式資本市場(ECM)収益は追加発行と転換社債発行の増加によって恩恵を受けた」と述べている。 株式取引は26%ほど上昇し、シティグループが最も好調なパフォーマンスを記録した一方、JPモルガンは5行の中で最も低い上昇率にとどまった。 キャシディ氏によると、5行の債券、為替、商品取引(FICC)の収益は合計で10%増加した。ゴールドマン・サックスを除く5行すべてがFICCで前年比増益を達成した。 同証券会社によると、各行はマクロ経済および地政学的な不確実性を考慮しつつも、短期的な投資銀行業務の見通しについては「慎重ながらも楽観的」な姿勢を示している。 米国とイランの間で2週間の停戦が期限切れを迎えようとしている。ホワイトハウスはテヘランとの合意に楽観的で、第2回協議はパキスタンで開催される可能性が高いと述べている。先週末、イスラマバードで行われた和平交渉は合意に至らずに終了した。 「多くの投資銀行は(第1四半期に)堅調な受注残高を指摘しており、市場の変動が穏やかな状況であれば、これらの案件は収益化できると我々は考えている」とキャシディ氏は述べた。「しかし、経済の不確実性と市場の変動性の高まりが長引けば長引くほど、各社が投資銀行業務の収益を伸ばすのは難しくなるだろう。」

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.
