市場の動向:IMFは日本に対し、強い需要を背景に段階的な利上げと財政支援を目標とするよう促した。

-- ロイター通信は金曜日、国際通貨基金(IMF)の高官が、堅調な国内需要と安定した賃金上昇を理由に、日本に対し、財政刺激策は限定的なものにとどめつつ、段階的に利上げを行うよう助言したと報じた。 IMFアジア太平洋局長のクリシュナ・スリニバサン氏は記者会見で、日本の経済成長は堅調な国内需要とプラスの賃金上昇に支えられ、依然として力強いと述べたとロイター通信は伝えた。 スリニバサン氏は、日本銀行に対し、データに基づいた段階的な利上げアプローチを採用するよう勧告し、インフレ率は2027年までに日銀の目標である2%に達すると予測したとロイター通信は伝えた。 財政政策に関して、スリニバサン氏は、日本に対し、財政バッファーを賢明に活用し、的を絞った支援を行うよう促した。現在の燃料補助金や公共料金補助金は、既に巨額に上る日本の債務をさらに増加させていると指摘したとロイター通信は伝えた。 (マーケットチャッターのニュースは、世界中の市場専門家との会話から得られた情報に基づいています。この情報は信頼できる情報源に基づいていると考えられますが、噂や憶測が含まれている可能性があります。正確性は保証されません。)

Evolution Mining Shows Ability to Translate Gold Fundamentals to Cash Generation, Jefferies Says

Evolution Mining (ASX:EVN) exhibited a potent ability to translate current gold fundamentals through to cash generation even as it posted a resounding miss to fiscal third-quarter metrics, Jefferies said in a Thursday note.The company's operational issues in the quarter were temporary and it has a better cash flow outlook for the fiscal fourth quarter, while increasing optics on capital management are outweighing a softer fiscal 2027 outlook, the equity research firm said.Although lower Cowal mine volumes and higher all-in sustaining costs represent headwinds, the transition to processing low-grade stockpiles should support lower cash costs and help sustain operating mine cash flow.Jefferies added that Evolution Mining's balance sheet is in good order, and its liquidity position of roughly AU$1.90 billion, with no debt repayments due until fiscal 2029, give it plenty of flexibility to finance growth initiatives."We continue to see upside risk to [capital expenditure] beyond FY26, with the stronger balance sheet supporting concurrent project funding rather than prior sequencing, while [Evolution Mining's] stated ambition to manage up to eight assets leaves M&A an option," Jefferies said.It maintained an underperform rating and AU$11 price target on the company.Evolution Mining's shares fell almost 4% in recent Friday trade.
