Major U.S. equity benchmarks bounced back from a brief midweek downturn and resumed the holiday season rally Thursday, lifting the Dow Jones Industrial Average® (DJI) back near a record high as falling Treasury yields and further signs of easing inflation kept investors emboldened over prospects for Federal Reserve interest rate cuts and a "soft landing" for the economy. Here's where the major benchmarks ended:
TotalEnergies has signed an agreement with Thailand’s national oil and gas company PTTEP for the sale of a 25.5% equity stake in the Seagreen offshore wind farm for a consideration of $689 million.
Following this farm down, TotalEnergies retains 25.5% of Seagreen, alongside PTTEP (25.5%) and SSE Renewables (49%).
This transaction implies an enterprise value of $4.3 billion (100%), equivalent to a multiple of 13 times the expected average EBITDA over the next 5 years, depending on future market prices.
With a total capacity of 1,075 MW, Seagreen is the world’s deepest fixed-bottom wind farm. Fully operational since October 2023, Seagreen is comprised of 114 turbines which can provide enough electricity to power more than 1.6 million homes, equivalent to two-thirds of all homes in Scotland.
The energy sector is off to a mixed start, pressured by weakness in the crude complex but supported by strength in the major equity futures which bounced higher this morning following yesterday’s late-day selloff.
After three consecutive days of strong gains, WTI and Brent crude oil futures turned lower and were down over 1.5% in early trading. Reports showing higher inventories and record output in the United States weighed on prices and overshadowed lingering concerns over global trade disruptions in the Red Sea. In their latest inventory report, the EIA said that U.S. crude inventories rose by 2.9 million barrels last week, compared with analysts' expectations for a 2.3 million barrel draw and that U.S. crude output rose to a record 13.3 million bpd last week, up from the previous all-time high of 13.2 million bpd. Investors continue to worry about trade disruptions as major maritime carriers choose to steer clear of the Red Sea route, with longer voyages increasing transport and insurance costs.
Natural gas futures turned higher this morning following yesterday’s 1.8% drop, boosted by updated cooler weather forecasts in key consuming regions but gains were capped ahead of the weekly storage report. Analysts expect the EIA data to show a draw of (80) Bcf last week vs the 5-year average of (107) Bcf.
