美国劳动力市场疲软 今年上半年，美国新增非农就业人数有所减少，一方面，经济增长放缓；另一方面，移民、政府部门裁 员政策对就业市场产生冲击，失业率亦有所上升。 最近两个月，美国劳动力市场出现加速放缓迹象，职位空缺、ADP、初请失业金人数等指标均走弱。美 国8月新增非农就业岗位仅2.2万个，远不及预期的7.5万个，与修正后的前值7.9万个相比呈断崖式下 跌。8月失业率也从4.2%升至4.3%，为2021年来的最高水平。更令市场担忧的是，虽然7月的新增就业 数据上修6000个，至7.9万个，但6月数据从此前的增加2.7万个大幅下修为减少1.3万个。从具体分项来 看，美国联邦政府就业继续拖累整体就业市场，8月联邦政府职位减少1.5万个，私营部门增加3.8万个就 业岗位。作为过去几年来贡献美国新增就业的主要驱动力，医疗行业当月新增3.1万个就业岗位，社会 救助行业增加1.6万个就业岗位，批发贸易和制造业的就业岗位数量均减少1.2万个。美国就业市场疲 软，驱逐非法移民或进一步加大美国就业市场当前所面临的下行压力，预计四季度就业市场整体仍然偏 弱。 美联储降息预期升温 美国关税政策对经济的冲击逐渐显现，通胀温和反弹，劳动力 ...

从需求端来看，目前即将进入四季度的传统需求旺季。近期，气温下降、学校开学集中采购、"双节"备货需求增加等因素令生猪需求好 转，屠宰场开工率提高。通常来讲，屠宰利润越高意味着消费终端对高价猪肉的接受度越高，反之消费终端对高价猪肉的接受度较低。从 今年前三季度的屠宰利润走势来看，目前消费终端对高价猪肉的接受度较低。 图为生猪鲜冻品价差（单位：元／千克） 此外，虽然生猪市场供应宽松导致鲜品价格偏弱运行，鲜品和冻品价差处于历史低位，入库成本较低，但市场预期不乐观，因此冻品入库 需求有限，无法有效提振生猪需求。 2025年，生猪期货价格持续低位运行，即将到来的需求旺季能否提振市场信心？ 图为生猪期货价格走势（单位：元／吨） 从供应端来看，根据农业农村部数据，2025年7月末能繁母猪存栏量为4042万头，仍高于官方设定的3900万头的正常保有量，处于产能绿色 区间。能繁母猪存栏量自2024年5月起逐渐回升，按照商品猪出栏时间滞后10个月来推算，2025年3月生猪供应开始增长。目前，生猪市场 供应宽松格局并未改变，价格承压运行。 图为能繁母猪存栏量（单位：万头） 展望后市，供应方面，能繁母猪存栏量偏高导致供应宽松；需求方面 ...
