Wall Street Banks sold the final portion of the debt involved in Musk's acquisition of X.

A knowledgeable source said on Monday that a group of banks, including Morgan Stanley, Bank of America, Barclays, and Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, has sold the last portion of debt associated with billionaire Elon Musk's acquisition of the social media platform Twitter (X) for 44 billion dollars in 2022. The source added that loans worth 1.2 billion dollars were sold at a discount of 98 cents on the dollar, with a yield of 9.5%.

Bank of America Securities: Lowered the Target Price of TECHTRONIC IND to HKD 103, maintaining the Buy rating.

Bank of America Securities released a Research Report stating that TECHTRONIC IND (00669) is on track in revenue and profitability for the first half of the year, but visibility is low for the second half due to tariff impacts.

Bank of America Securities: China Shenhua Energy's first-quarter net income disappoints expectations, lowering the target price to 32 Hong Kong dollars.

Bank of America Securities released a Research Report stating that China Shenhua Energy (01088) saw its net income fall by 19% to 13.4 billion yuan in the first quarter, missing expectations. The primary reason the quarterly earnings did not meet expectations was due to a more-than-expected drop in the average selling price of Coal. The bank has lowered Shenhua's net income forecast for this year to 2027 by 7% to 12%, reducing the Target Price from 33 Hong Kong dollars to 32 Hong Kong dollars, while maintaining a "Neutral" rating, citing the pressure on earnings from declining Coal prices. However, the company is in a net cash position, and management is committed to returning value to Shareholders. China Shenhua's quarterly revenue fell by 21% year-on-year to 69.6 billion yuan; gross profit decreased by 22% year-on-year to 21 billion yuan.

Morgan Stanley strategist Wilson: The weakness of the dollar will support US stocks outperforming Other global markets.

Michael Wilson of Morgan Stanley stated that a weaker dollar will support corporate earnings in the USA, helping American stocks outperform Other global markets. As many Wall Street strategists believe the era of American exceptionalism is coming to an end, Wilson uniquely believes that the USA remains a relatively good investment choice. He pointed out that the lower volatility of corporate earnings growth and the perception of higher quality among American companies are other reasons supporting this view. "We are still in the later stage of the cycle, where high-quality firms and large-cap stocks are expected to continue to perform well," he wrote in a report on Monday. Wilson expects
