<p>倫敦：由於對伊朗帕爾斯氣田的攻擊推高了油價，並重新引發了對中東局勢升級的擔憂，歐洲股市在週三（3 月 18 日）停止了上漲，自本週初以來的平靜被打破。泛歐 STOXX 600 指數下跌 0.70%，至 598.25 點，此前在交易中一度上漲 0.67%，結束了連續兩天的上漲趨勢。對帕爾斯的攻擊是美國 - 以色列戰爭期間首次報告的針對伊朗能源基礎設施的襲擊，促使德黑蘭警告鄰國其能源設施將在 “未來幾小時” 內成為目標。“到目前為止，能源基礎設施一直是某種程度上的禁區。但這種升級帶回了市場一直試圖忘記的風險，” Pepperstone 的高級研究策略師邁克爾·布朗表示。“市場上存在一定的樂觀偏見，因為每個人仍然期待（美國總統唐納德）特朗普會有某種轉變，但我們今天看到的又一次警鐘提醒，事情並不是理所當然的。” 市場的波動顯示出投資者情緒對中東局勢發展的反應仍然非常敏感，削弱了人們對股票可能找到支撐的希望，尤其是在依賴石油進口的歐洲。布倫特原油期貨上漲 4.75%，至每桶 108.33 美元，而美國西德克薩斯中質油上漲 1.89%，至每桶 98.03 美元。中央銀行關注 投資者還將關注美聯儲主席傑羅姆·鮑威爾週三的評論，而歐洲中央銀行行長克里斯蒂娜·拉加德定於本週晚些時候發言。兩位中央銀行行長預計將闡述他們對利率的展望，這可能為投資者提供新的定位線索。“他們會盡量保持不表態。我認為他們都不想在這個時候將自己侷限於特定的政策路徑，” 布朗表示。消費品類股票下跌 2.72%，成為基準指數最大的拖累，而醫療保健公司也下跌了 2%。銀行股則在拋售中保持穩定，連續第三天上漲 1.22%。在個股方面，電腦外設製造商羅技下跌 6.07%。瑞銀將該股評級從 “買入” 下調至 “中性”，同時下調了其目標價。Diploma 股價上漲 17.79%，創下歷史新高，此前該公司上調了 2026 財年的指引。</p>

<p>LONDON: European shares halted their ascent on Wednesday (Mar 18) after an attack on Iran's Pars gas field pushed oil prices higher and renewed fears of escalation in the Middle East, shattering the calm since the beginning of the week. The pan-European STOXX 600 declined 0.70 per cent to 598.25 after gaining as much as 0.67 per cent earlier in the session, ending a two-day winning streak. The attack on Pars was the first ​reported strike on Iranian energy infrastructure in the Gulf during the US-Israeli war, and prompted Tehran to warn its neighbours that their energy installations would be targeted &#34;in the coming hours&#34;. &#34;Up to now, energy infrastructure had been sort of off-limits. But this escalation brings back the risk that markets have been trying to forget,&#34; said Michael Brown, senior research strategist at Pepperstone. &#34;There is a degree of optimistic bias in the market because everyone is still expecting that we get some sort of U-turn from (US President Donald) Trump, but what we've seen today is another wake-up call that it is not a given.&#34; The market moves show how reactive investor sentiment remains to developments in the Middle East, undermining hopes that stocks may have found a floor, especially in oil import-reliant Europe. Brent crude futures rose 4.75 per cent to US$108.33 a barrel, while US West Texas Intermediate crude jumped 1.89 per cent to US$98.03.CENTRAL BANKS IN FOCUS Investors will also parse commentary from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell on Wednesday, while European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde is scheduled to speak later in the week. Both central bank chiefs are expected to lay out their outlook for interest rates, which could offer investors fresh clues on positioning. &#34;They are going to try and be as non-committal as they possibly can. I don't think either of them is going to want to box themselves into a particular policy path at this point,&#34; Brown said. Consumer staples stocks slipped 2.72 per cent and were the biggest drag on the benchmark, while healthcare companies also fell 2 per cent. Banks were insulated from the selloff, rising 1.22 per cent for their third straight day of gains. Among individual movers, computer peripherals maker Logitech fell 6.07 per cent. UBS downgraded the stock to &#34;neutral&#34; from &#34;buy&#34;, while lowering its price target. Diploma jumped 1 7.79 per cent to a record high after it raised fiscal 2026 guidance.</p>
