①花旗下调标普500指数年终目标至5800 看好科技、医疗及金融板块前景 美股隔夜收跌，特朗普关税不确定性继续令美股承压。花旗最新研报将标普500指数年终目标点位从 6500点大幅下调至5800点，并将每股收益预期从270美元调降至255美元。调整主要基于宏观经济形势演 变及企业业绩承压。在投资策略上，花旗重点推荐：信息技术、通信服务、医疗保健及金融类股，花旗 认为这些板块在当前市场环境下更具增长韧性和投资价值，因此给予"增持"评级。与之相对，花旗对非 必需消费品、工业、必需消费品及原材料板块持审慎态度，给予 "减持" 评级，因为认为这些行业更容 易受到通胀压力和需求波动的影响。 评论员徐广语：纳斯达克4月下旬以来的反弹呈现"预期驱动型"特征，即微软、Meta等云与AI业务超预 期及降息预期推动短期上涨。但上涨的持续性面临三重矛盾：1）特朗普关税暂停仅90天，政策不确定 性犹存；2）科技"七巨头"估值达29.1倍PE，盈利增速（16.8%）能否匹配存疑；3）市场分歧明显，仅 43%成分股维持涨势。当前反弹更多反映风险偏好修复，而非基本面全面改善，投资者需警惕高估值和 政策反复的风险。 申万宏源证券研究所执行总 ...
