上周，美国财政法案获得通过。摩根士丹利固定收益和主题研究全球主管迈克尔·泽萨斯（Michael Zezas）表示，无论投资者如何看待这项即将生效的立法最终会产生的影响，摩根士丹利所定义的本年 度市场前景四大关键政策因素——财政、贸易、移民和监管——中的一些重大不确定性现已得到解决。 另一方面，美国贸易政策的具体内容和方向仍然悬而未决。 本周三（7月9日），始于4月9日的对等关税90天暂停期将到期。摩根士丹利的基本预测是：美国的有效 关税水平仅会小幅上涨，但会伴随一些新的不确定性。 如果谈判停滞或失败，美国政府可能会决定有选择性地、分阶段地重新征收关税。例如，鉴于双边谈判 的复杂性和各行业之间的细微差别（正如摩根士丹利在此处强调的），欧盟和/或日本可能会面临更强 硬的立场。谈判进展缓慢可能会导致宣布提高关税，但延迟实施——为解决问题留下余地。这种情境也 与7月9日之前没有达成双边或区域框架协议的情况一致。 情景三：框架狂潮 在一个更良性的转变中，美国政府可能会宣布一些区域或双边框架——并非完整的贸易协议，但足以明 确美国有效关税税率的方向偏低，从而降低近期进口成本方向的不确定性。 虽然许多美国贸易伙伴可能会获得 ...
