-- 週五盤後交易中,歐洲天然氣期貨價格持續下跌。先前,美國總統川普和伊朗官員宣布霍爾木茲海峽已重新開放商業航運,導致天然氣期貨價格早盤大幅下挫。 荷蘭TTF近月合約下跌8.03%,至每兆瓦時39.015歐元(46.04美元);英國NBP期貨下跌7.432%,至每熱量單位98.40便士(1.33美元)。 天然氣價格一度跌破每兆瓦時39歐元,創下自2月中東衝突爆發前的最低水準。 這次拋售潮源自於伊朗外交部長阿巴斯·阿拉格奇的表態。阿拉格奇表示,在目前的停火條件下,霍爾木茲海峽仍完全開放。這項聲明緩解了市場對這條全球最重要的能源運輸通道之一可能長期中斷的擔憂,並促使交易員平倉近期衝突期間累積的風險溢價。 川普的言論也影響了市場情緒,他暗示伊朗的讓步可能有助於在外交上取得更廣泛的進展,但他同時指出,在談判結束前,美國海上封鎖將繼續實施。 在緊張局勢最嚴重的時候,霍爾木茲海峽附近的航運中斷影響了全球約20%的液化天然氣(LNG)流量。供應衝擊導致亞洲進口量降至多年來的最低水平,間接使歐洲買家受益,減少了競爭。 Trading Economics表示,隨著這些風險的消退,交易員正在重新評估供應前景。 疲軟的需求基本面進一步打壓了價格。歐洲部分地區異常溫暖的天氣和強勁的風力發電降低了對天然氣發電的依賴。 據歐洲天然氣基礎設施協會(Gas Infrastructure Europe)稱,由於庫存水平仍處於較低水平,佔總容量的29.55%,而去年同期接近36%,較低的價格可能有助於在冬季到來之前重建庫存。 人們對夏季能源供應的擔憂仍然存在。大氣氣象公司Atmospheric G2週四在社群媒體上發文指出,阿爾卑斯山降水有限,積雪量低,增加了水力發電量下降的風險,並可能導致極端高溫或乾旱時期電力市場供應緊張。 美國國家氣象局4月9日表示,厄爾尼諾現象可能在2026年5月至7月間出現,並持續到年底。預報員稱,這將增加夏季氣溫高於往年同期的可能性,尤其是在南歐地區,這可能會進一步影響能源需求和市場波動。

Netflix Supported by Pricing Increase, Ad Revenue, Stock Buybacks, UBS Says
Netflix (NFLX) is still set up for steady growth from price increases, ad revenue, a strong content lineup, and faster stock buybacks, even after it kept its 2026 outlook unchanged, UBS said in a note Thursday.The company's Q1 came in ahead of its own forecast, helped by stronger member growth, lower churn across regions, and favorable foreign exchange, while the company's decision to keep its 2026 revenue growth outlook at 12% to 14% and margin target at 31.5% may disappoint some investors, it still has solid business momentum, the investment firm said.Pricing remains a key support, with recent increases holding up well and more hikes in major markets likely to support average revenue per member grow throughout the year, UBS said, adding that it also expects advertising to become a bigger driver, saying the lower priced ad tier, new demand partnerships, and better ad fill rates should lift ad sales sharply in 2026.Netflix should keep benefiting from a broad slate through the rest of 2026, including returning shows, new films, more live sports and events, and further expansion in games and mobile video, according to the note.UBS kept its buy rating and $130 price target for Netflix, saying that investor sentiment could improve as Netflix's growth path, money making potential, and strong position in streaming come back into focus.Price: $96.62, Change: $-11.18, Percent Change: -10.37%
Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Buy Opinion On Shares Of Autoliv Inc.
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We maintain a 12-month price target of $145, based on a 2027 P/E of 11.3x, a justified discount to ALV's five-year forward P/E of 14.0x. Following a much stronger-than-expected Q1, we reiterate our Buy opinion and $145 price target on ALV. We lower our 2026 adjusted EPS estimate by $0.20 to $11.00 but keep 2027's unchanged at $12.80. In our view, the release went a long way toward easing demand-related concerns, both for the company and broader auto supplier industry. ALV remains one of our top picks in the auto supplier space, as justified by its strong track record of execution (this was its sixth consecutive earnings beat), organic net sales growth that continues to exceed global light vehicle growth by a wide margin thanks to its exposure to higher-growth manufacturers and countries (i.e., India), and generous cash returns to shareholders. While we have concerns regarding ALV's ability to hit full-year operating margin guidance, its organic net sales growth is running ahead of expectations.
