里昂：重申港交所“买入”评级 目标价降4.4%至665港元
. 里昂：重申港交所(00388)“买入”评级 目标价降4.4%至665港元 智通财经APP获悉，里昂发布研究报告称，重申香港交易所 (HK:0388)(00388)“买入”评级，目标价由696港元降至665港元，降2021-23年盈利预期4%-5%。 报告中称，指因投资收入转弱，令港交所第二季业绩略逊预期，高基数也影响同比和按季表现，不过如果回望一下疫情前日子，27.7亿元的纯利也算是十分稳健。
NYMEX原油下看64.01美元
NYMEX原油下看64.01美元 周二(8月17日)，国际油价从前一天的跌势中小幅回升，因投资者预计主要产油国不会很快提高供应量。不过对新冠病例激增导致全球需求减弱的担忧限制了涨幅。油价依然看跌，NYMEX原油下看64.01美元。北京时间13:42，NYMEX原油期货上涨0.10%至67.36美元/桶；ICE布伦特原油期货上浮0.04%至69.54美元/桶。两市隔夜收跌约1%。此前多名消息人士表示，石油输出国组织及其包括俄罗斯在内的盟友(OPEC+)认为，尽管美国政府上周呼吁OPEC增产，但未来几个月石油市场并不需要比它们的计划释出更多石油。美国认为汽油价格大幅上涨对全球经济复苏构成威胁。Fujitomi Securities分析师Toshitaka Tazawa表示：“美国原油在65美元左右有支撑，每当油价接近这个水平时，投资者往往逢低买进，正如我们在周一和上周看到的那样。”根据美国能源信息署(EIA)周一(8月16日)发布的月度钻探生产率报告，美国9月页岩油产量预计将上升至810万桶/日，为2020年5月以来最高。但由于Delta变异毒株病例在全球多地蔓延，严重打击了长途航空客运迅速恢复的希望，上周对冲基金在八周内第六次出售石油。Tazawa还表示，市场无视美国页岩油产量增加的影响，“但油价的任何涨幅可能会有限，因为全球范围内Delta病毒变种感染率激增，加剧对全球燃料需求放缓的担忧。”日线图上看，油价处于自69.62美元开启的下行((iii))浪走势，跌破38.2%目标位66.15美元，后市下看61.8%目标位64.01美元。((iii))浪是自74.23美元开启的下行C浪的子浪，C浪是自76.98美元开启的调整(A)浪的子浪。
