Bargain hunters are wise to pay careful attention to insider buying, because although there are many various reasons for an insider to sell a stock, presumably the only reason they would use their hard-earned dollars to make a purchase, is that they expect to make money. Today

堪萨斯城联邦储备银行行长杰夫·施密德警告称，美联储不应忽视伊朗冲突带来的能源价格飙升对通胀的影响。 施密德周二在为俄克拉荷马城一场活动准备的讲话中表示，“此次石油冲击正值通胀在过高水平维持太久。鉴于通胀已经火热，现在不应假设油价上涨带来的通胀只是暂时性的。” 施密德称油价上涨可能会通过机票和其他交通成本等项目转嫁到核心通胀上。他表示，过去五年物价上涨速度一直超过美联储2%的目标，并称担心通胀率会滞留在3%左右。 这位堪萨斯城联储行长对经济的其他方面表示赞赏，指出尽管就业较低，但经济增 长和 消费依然强劲。他表示，虽然油价飙升会略微拖累经济增长，但经济可能会吸收大部分油价上涨带来的冲击。 施密德说：“经济中存在诸多相互交织的因素，其中一些因素正推动就业和通胀朝着相反的方向发展，决策者在追求双重目标时需要权衡取舍。在进行权衡时，我目前更关注通胀面临的风险。” 美联储官员在3月17日至18日的会议上维持利率不变，主席杰罗姆·鲍威尔会后表示，判断能源价格上涨对经济的影响还为时过早。施密德等美联储官员当时对能源成本飙升表示担忧，认为这可能会推 高通 胀。 责任编辑：李桐

格隆汇4月1日｜以色列国防部表示，鉴于法国一系列举措（其认为这些举措有损以色列的安全利益），该国已决定停止从法国采购一切军事装备。该部门表示，法国正在极力阻碍向以色列运送弹药的行为，并禁止载有旨在针对伊朗作战的弹药的以色列飞机飞越法国领空。法国并非向以色列大量供应军事装备的国家，但此举凸显了自2023年加沙战争开始以来以色列外交关系的转变。

Foreign central banks have slashed their holdings of Treasuries at the New York Federal Reserve by $82B since Feb. 25, bringing total holdings to $2.7T—the lowest level since 2012, according to Fed data, FT reported. “The foreign official sector is selling Treasuries,” said Meghan Swiber, a U.S. rates strategist at Bank of America, noting that the decline is particularly significant given that the Treasury market has roughly tripled in size since the Fed last recorded this level of selling. The selloff comes as the Iran war and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz have triggered a surge in energy prices and strengthened the dollar, upending the finances of countries that rely on oil imports. Central banks have intervened in foreign exchange markets to prop up their currencies, a move that typically involves selling U.S. dollars ( DXY ) and the Treasury securities they hold. Foreign central bank holdings of Treasuries at NY Fed decline (Fred, New York Federal Reserve ) Oil importers such as Turkey, India, and Thailand are likely among those selling as they pay higher dollar-denominated prices for oil, according to Brad Setser, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations who studies foreign holdings of Treasuries. Turkey’s central bank has sold $22B of foreign government securities from its foreign currency reserves since Feb. 27, the day before attacks on Iran were launched, with Setser noting a significant portion were likely Treasuries. “A number of countries…don’t want their currencies to weaken further because it pushes up the local currency price of oil—and either means more fiscal subsidies or more pain for households,” he explained. The selling is adding pressure to an already volatile Treasury market, with yields on both two-year ( US2Y ) and 10-year Treasuries ( US10Y ) rising this month by the most since 2024, increasing borrowing costs for the government, businesses, and households.

SolStock/E+ via Getty Images Things are not about to get easier for Nomad Foods ( NOMD ). After a melange of headwinds weighed heavily on the firm's operating metrics in 2025, management expects the trend to carry over into 2026, guiding to another year of declining revenue and earnings. Oh, and this guidance was delivered before the start of the war in Iran. The market has not taken the news well. Nomad's stock has delivered a circa 18% loss since my last update in October, making a mockery of that article's "Strong Buy" rating. There is a lot for prospective investors to chew on here. Already difficult, Nomad's operating environment could be made a lot worse by the economic fallout from events in the Middle East. Leverage is also considerable. In recognition of this, Nomad's shares now trade for less than 6x guided forward EPS. For that reason, I continue to rate shares "Strong Buy." Data by YCharts No Relief In 2026 To quickly recap, Nomad Foods is one of the largest frozen food players in Europe. Many of its brands, which include Birds Eye , Findus, iglo, and Goodfella's , will be household names for readers on the continent. If you're reading from elsewhere, then think frozen fish, poultry, vegetables, ice cream, and pizza. The company has been beset by a number of headwinds: fragile consumer sentiment, cost inflation, and retail inventory destocking chief among them. Record-warm temperatures in the summer didn't help either (unsurprisingly, people typically don't want to eat fish fingers when it's very hot!). All of this has contributed to weak revenue and even weaker earnings. While this was already apparent at the time of my last piece, things haven't improved in the interim, with Nomad's volume and organic revenue both falling by around 1% in the final quarter of 2025. On the plus side, retail sell-out was modestly positive (+0.7%) and represented an acceleration on earlier periods (full-year sell-out was 0.4%). As for earnings, with supply chain inflation ...

primeimages/E+ via Getty Images Use for High-quality income opportunities Objective Current income and capital preservation Morningstar category Securitized Bond - Diversified Highlights MBS saw positive returns in the fourth quarter. The fund ( JHMB ) underperformed its benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. MBS Index. Yield curve positioning contributed positively to performance, while sector allocation and individual security selection detracted from relative results. Market review and outlook U.S. mortgage-backed securities (MBS) posted positive returns in the fourth quarter, capping a solid year of performance. Despite further declines in consumer sentiment, the U.S. economy posted its fastest quarterly growth rate in two years in the third quarter, led by strong consumer spending. Nonetheless, continued weakness in the labor market, including a four-year high in the unemployment rate, led the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) to cut short-term interest rates twice during the quarter. The Fed's decision-making was complicated by the longest federal government shutdown in the nation's history, which caused delays and hiccups in the government's economic data collection and reporting. MBS outperformed the broader bond market, benefiting from relatively high yields. The yield curve steepened during the quarter as short-term bond yields declined, reflecting the Fed rate cuts, while intermediate-term bond yields were largely unchanged, and long-term bond yields rose slightly. The economic and political uncertainty that permeated the financial markets in 2025 is likely to remain a significant factor in the coming year. The market consensus regarding the Fed in 2026 is for two interest rate cuts, but that outlook could be impacted by both economic developments and a new Fed chair, who will be appointed when the current chair's term expires in May. Contributors and detractors The fund underperformed the benchmark in the fourth quarter, primarily due to sector allocation. Positions in ...
