疲软的就业数据与温和的生产者价格数据（PPI），让交易员认定美联储在9月16日至17日的会议上必然降息25个基 点，且年底前可能再跟进两次同等幅度的降息。 债券交易员正严阵以待一份高风险的美国通胀报告，该报告可能打乱他们的押注：即美联储本月起将开启一轮大幅 降息，并持续至2026年。 但除此之外，市场对经济风险平衡的判断已发生转变。目前的仓位布局显示，交易员认为美联储最终会将利率降 至"中性水平"以下，通过政策刺激增长以规避衰退。 这一转变堪称"巨变"：过去一年的大部分时间里，由于通胀表现顽固，交易员一直不敢押注如此大规模的宽松。在 当前格局下，周四发布的消费者价格指数（CPI）报告受到的关注度大幅提升。根据经济学家的共识预期，该报告预 计将显示核心CPI同比涨幅仍远高于美联储目标。 对美联储的降息押注已经推动美债在过去一个月反弹，其中美国2年期国债收益率跌至4月以来最低，但眼下的风险 是投资者可能已过度乐观。 "债市前端（短期债券）的定价反映的是经济疲软预期，而非对通胀的关注，"Columbia Threadneedle总回报债券基金 投资组合经理埃德·阿勒侯赛尼（Ed Al-Hussainy）表示，"若市 ...

过去几年，美国接连遭遇一系列通胀冲击：疫情打乱供应链、大规模财政刺激、俄乌冲突、移民政策收 紧、关税壁垒以及国债规模预估飙升。然而投资者始终预期通胀将在数年内回归2%水平。这种信心的 根源在于：人们本能地相信无论遭遇何种冲击，美联储都能像汽车刹车系统那样确保通胀受控。 另一位竞争者、特朗普的顾问凯文·哈塞特（Kevin Hassett）也表示："白宫所有人都明白美联储独立性 的极端重要性。" 但美联储能否保持独立并不取决于下任主席。如果特朗普能解雇鲍威尔，同样可以解雇其继任者。 5月最高法院曾示意总统无权无故撤换包括主席在内的美联储理事。特朗普上周三虽表示不太可能解雇 鲍威尔，但留下"若涉欺诈则需离职"的话柄。其团队正试图以美联储总部装修超标为由构建解职依据。 特朗普对工程成本的关切颇具选择性。以美墨边境墙为例：2016年竞选时他宣称造价80-120亿美元且由 墨西哥支付。国土安全部数据显示，特朗普首个任期实际耗资170亿美元纳税人资金，工程未完工且墨 西哥未出一分钱。近期国会共和党人又追加465亿美元拨款。 如果特朗普成功迫使美联储主席鲍威尔去职，这一根本假设将彻底崩塌。美联储将不再是对政府的制衡 力量，而 ...
