FTSE 100 Falls as NatWest Drops After Quarterly Results
富時100指數下跌,NatWest季度業績下跌
The FTSE 100 drops 0.3% to 7229 points with NatWest the biggest faller even after the U.K. bank posted third-quarter profit ahead of forecasts. "NatWest share price has been a notable outperformer so far this year, its shares up over 35%, and at 20-month highs, so the bar was quite high for today's Q3 numbers," CMC Markets analyst Michael Hewson says. Profits attributable to shareholders were well ahead of last year but were almost half the second quarter's level, while the net interest margin--a key measure of profitability--fell compared to the previous quarter, he says. NatWest shares fall 5.3%.
富時100指數下跌0.3%,至7229點,其中跌幅最大的是NatWest,儘管這家英國銀行公佈了高於預期的第三季度利潤。CMC Markets分析師邁克爾·休森(Michael Hewson)表示:“到目前為止,NatWest的股價今年以來一直表現突出,漲幅超過35%,創下20個月來的新高,因此對於今天公佈的第三季度數據來説,門檻相當高。”他説,股東應占利潤遠高於去年,但幾乎是第二季度水平的一半,而淨息差(衡量盈利能力的關鍵指標)與上一季度相比有所下降。NatWest股價下跌5.3%。

NatWest's 3Q Contracted Net Interest Margin Likely to Get Investors' Attention
NatWest第三季度收縮的淨息差可能會引起投資者的注意
0752 GMT - Investors' focus in relation to NatWest Group's third-quarter results will likely be its on-quarter net interest margin contraction, Jefferies says. The FTSE 100-listed bank is a rate-sensitive lender, with a common equity Tier 1 ratio--a key measure of balance-sheet strength--of 18.7%, Jefferies says, noting that the bank has an endowment problem of having too much capital. "The investment case therefore relies on repatriating this capital and the bank realizing higher net interest income via rates," Jefferies says. Shares are down 5.4% at 219.00 pence.
0752GMT-傑富瑞(Jefferies)表示,投資者對NatWest Group第三季度業績的關注焦點可能是其季度淨息差收縮。傑富瑞説,這家富時100指數(FTSE 100)成分股銀行是一家對利率敏感的銀行,普通股一級資本充足率(衡量資產負債表實力的關鍵指標)為18.7%。傑富瑞指出,該行存在資本金過多的稟賦問題。傑富瑞表示:“因此,投資案例依賴於將這些資本匯回國內,銀行通過利率實現更高的淨利息收入。”該公司股價下跌5.4%,至219.00便士。

NatWest's Share Price Falls Despite Stronger-Than-Expected Profits
儘管利潤強於預期,NatWest的股價還是下跌了
0747 GMT - The market reaction to NatWest's results for 3Q has been a little underwhelming, with the shares dropping to the bottom of the FTSE 100 index, Michael Hewson, chief market analyst at CMC Markets UK, says. The lender's pretax profit, net profit and revenue came in ahead of market expectations, but net profit was still almost half the level it reached in 2Q, Hewson says. "Having seen decent numbers from Lloyds and Barclays, expectations were high for NatWest Group's third-quarter numbers today," Hewson says. The fact that the bank booked a charge of GBP294 million after pleading guilty to money-laundering charges didn't help to boost sentiment, he says. Shares are down 5.4% at 219.00 pence.
0747GMT-CMC Markets UK首席市場分析師邁克爾·休森(Michael Hewson)表示,市場對NatWest第三季度業績的反應有點平淡無奇,該公司股價跌至富時100指數(FTSE 100 Index)的底部。休森説,該銀行的税前利潤、淨利潤和營收都超出了市場預期,但淨利潤仍接近第二季度水平的一半。休森説:“在看到勞埃德銀行和巴克萊銀行不錯的業績後,人們對NatWest集團今天公佈的第三季度業績抱有很高的期望。”他説,該行在承認洗錢指控後計入2.94億英鎊的費用,這一事實無助於提振市場人氣。該公司股價下跌5.4%,至219.00便士。

Glencore's 2021 Marketing Guidance Upgrade Was Expected by the Market
嘉能可2021年營銷指引升級在市場意料之中
0700 GMT - Glencore said it expects adjusted EBIT from its marketing business to exceed the top end of the $2.2 billion-$3.2 billion long-term guidance range in 2021. This is positive, but also expected following a strong performance in the first half and as commodity markets remained tight in the second half, RBC Capital Markets says. The market consensus for Glencore's 2021 marketing EBIT is $3.5 billion, RBC notes. As for production, third-quarter figures were slightly weaker, but annual guidance ranges have been reaffirmed, the bank says. The most notable miss was nickel, which was 18% below RBC's forecasts. "We continue to see Glencore in a favorable position versus peers."
0700GMT-嘉能可表示,預計2021年其營銷業務的調整後息税前利潤(EBIT)將超過22億-32億美元長期指導區間的高端。加拿大皇家銀行資本市場(RBC Capital Markets)表示,這是積極的,但在上半年表現強勁以及大宗商品市場在下半年仍然吃緊之後,這也是意料之中的。加拿大皇家銀行(RBC)指出,市場對嘉能可2021年營銷息税前利潤(EBIT)的共識是35億美元。至於產量,世行表示,第三季度的數據略顯疲軟,但年度指導區間已得到重申。最值得注意的是鎳,比加拿大皇家銀行的預測低18%。“我們繼續看到嘉能可相對於同行處於有利地位。”
