这么做将使美联储暴露于政治影响之下，从而削弱公众对美联储独立性的信心，并危及美国货币政策的公信力和有效性。 周四，所有在世的美联储前主席，以及多位前美国财政部长、前白宫经济顾问和经济学家敦促美国最高法院，不要允许美国总统特朗普解雇美联储理事丽莎·库 克。他们认为，这样做会令美国经济健康岌岌可危，警告称美联储独立性的任何削弱都可能导致通胀上升。 上述团体在周四提交给美国最高法院大法官的"法庭之友"意见书中表示： 如果在库克对免职提出挑战期间就允许特朗普将她解职，将会削弱公众对美联储的信任，并破坏稳定物价、增加就业以及调节长期利率的努力。 那些 " 密切关注美联储 " 的行业正在仔细观察这场争议，以判断美联储未来的可信度。如果外界看到一名理事会成员因仍在诉讼中争议的指控而被罢免，那么这 些受众将更加怀疑美联储的独立性及其对长期低通胀政策的承诺。 这些前官员们敦促美国最高法院考虑他们在美国和全球政策制定中的经验。他们的经验让他们确信，央行独立性的削弱会导致更高的通胀和借贷成本。 文件引用了前美联储主席伯恩斯（Arthur Burns）的例子。20世纪70年代初，当时的美国总统尼克松施压伯恩斯，通过降息来降低失业率。 ...

Core Viewpoint - Despite the solid foundation of AI investment themes, Barclays highlights that a slowdown in data center capital expenditure could pose the largest systemic risk to the U.S. stock market, with a potential 20% decline in capital spending leading to a 3-4% downward pressure on S&P 500 earnings and a 10-13% drop in valuations [1][30]. Group 1: Potential Risks - The report identifies three major potential "landmines" that could trigger this crisis: 1. **Technology and Efficiency Risk**: Rapid improvements in AI model efficiency may lead to overbuilt computing facilities, reminiscent of the "dark fiber" tragedy during the dot-com bubble [2][9]. 2. **Physical Limitations Risk**: Increasing electricity shortages are becoming a hard constraint on data center construction, potentially cooling capital expenditures [2][14]. 3. **Liquidity Risk**: As capital expenditure growth begins to exceed cash flow generation, financing pressures and dwindling VC capital could become critical issues [3][20]. Group 2: AI Investment Fundamentals - The report affirms the robust foundation of AI investment themes, noting that even with an expected annual growth of 30% in capital expenditures, the demand for computing power still far exceeds supply [4][5]. - The capital expenditure to sales ratio for current tech giants is approximately 25%, which is considered relatively prudent compared to over 40% during the telecom bubble [6].
