文 | 赵伟、陈达飞、王茂宇 联系人 | 王茂宇 摘要 截止到5月中旬，美国进口商品的平均关税税率已经降至16%左右，但仍处历史高位。目前已进入数据验 证期，如何观察美国的"抢进口"动能和"滞胀"压力？本文提出了一个监测框架。 热点思考： 美国经济：关税冲击的监测框架 一、关税冲击进入数据"验证期"，如何监测其经济影响？三大维度：贸易、价格、风险偏好 关税冲突虽有缓和，但美国税率仍处历史高位。 5月12日以来，美国对华进口平均关税税率降至42%，总 体平均税率降至16%，但仍处于历史高位。耶鲁大学预算实验室的测算认为，该关税或使美国GDP下降 0.65个点，通胀上升1.7个点。所以，"滞胀"是基准假设。 关税对美国经济的传导，可从贸易（数量）、价格、风险偏好三个维度进行监测。 1）贸易方面，关税 冲击体现为美国进口先增后减（抢进口）、出口受抑，并影响国内需求；2）价格方面，关税将由进口价 格传导至生产和消费价格，抑制实际消费需求；3）风险偏好方面，关税推升政策不确定性，影响金融压 力、美元指数，进而降低居民消费意愿、企业投资意愿。 二、短期内，应该关注哪些核心经济指标？进口、库存和通胀压力 一季度，美国开始抢 ...

医药股遭遇"至暗时刻"。 根据高盛欧洲医药专家Seth James的分析，当前医药股的交易表现宛如"ESG时代巅峰时期的能源股 ——仿佛正在消亡"。 数据显示， 该板块相对市盈率已降至自全球金融危机复苏期和新冠疫情高峰期以来的最低水平；相对 标普500指数的估值已降至历史新低，创下有记录以来的最大折价。 标普医疗保健行业指数基金表现逊于标普大盘，差距为24年来最大。 高盛数据显示，从市场定位来看，欧盟医药板块多空比率接近5年低点，而美国市场在空头方面甚至更 加极端——这种极端定位通常为反弹奠定基础。 然而，仍有多重政策不确定性仍继续笼罩医药板块。 分析指出，除了潜在的关税政策、特朗普要求高价处方药必须"对齐"降价的计划之外，美国CMS(医疗保 险与医疗补助服务中心)最新指导草案新增关于固定组合的段落，也引发了投资者担忧某些原为静脉注 射药物的皮下注射剂型可能比预期更早纳入IRA价格谈判。 高盛分析师Asad Haider指出，上述因素尽管可能最终成为"大妥协"的一部分，但目前仍是压制整个行 业的阴云。 推荐阅读： 巴菲特解释"退休"决定：开始偶尔失去平衡，有时甚至记不起一个人的名字。突然间，读的报纸看起来 就 ...

Core Viewpoint - Despite a strong rebound of over 15% in European stock markets since early April, Bank of America believes the market may be overly optimistic in pricing the reduction of future policy uncertainties [1][3]. Group 1: Market Performance - European stock markets have rebounded more than 15% since the low on April 9, recovering from an 18% drop from the historical high in early March [3]. - The rebound is attributed to resilient macro data and expectations of reduced policy uncertainty [1][3]. Group 2: Macroeconomic Data - Overall macro data remains strong, with U.S. private domestic demand growing at an annualized rate of 3% in Q1 and April employment data exceeding expectations [5]. - Global PMI slightly declined from 51.9 in March to 50.7, indicating that while some indicators suggest a slowdown, economic growth momentum has not yet been significantly impacted [5]. Group 3: Policy Uncertainty - Market sentiment has improved as signs indicate that the U.S. government's "pain threshold" has been triggered, leading to a rollback of tariff measures and upcoming trade negotiations with China [6]. - Investors appear to view high uncertainty indicators as lagging, expecting a significant decrease in uncertainty due to the easing of trade tensions [6]. Group 4: Future Risks - There is considerable disappointment potential as macro data may worsen, with analysts predicting a further decline in global PMI by 3 points to 48 in Q3 [7][8]. - Although policy uncertainty is expected to decrease, it may not decline as sharply as the market anticipates, suggesting that the Stoxx 600 index could face about a 15% downside risk, with a target price of 460 points for Q3 [14][11]. Group 5: Sector Analysis - Analysts favor sectors positively correlated with uncertainty reduction, such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, personal and household products, and utilities [16]. - Caution is advised for sectors negatively correlated with uncertainty, including building materials, banks, capital goods, and diversified financial services [16].
