方正证券研报称，12月非农数据好坏参半，美国就业市场整体处于温和下行趋势，但失业率边际改善， 给1月美联储更多观望的理由，结合最高法或宣布IEEPA关税违宪，短期或利多美股和美元、利空美 债：新增就业、职位空缺率、时薪增速等数据表明12月美国就业市场仍相对疲软，但失业率数据的边际 下降是为数不多亮点。从利率期货和美债走势看，数据公布后市场定价美联储1月不降息，最早或6月开 启降息。与此同时，由于最高法近期或宣布IEEPA关税违宪，意味着经济预期或边际改善，通胀压力走 弱，但财政赤字加剧。在美联储不急于降息+关税降温的组合下，短期美债不利因素较多，高位运行概 率较高，美股受益于AI景气度+关税扰动减少，尤其是必选消费、工业等关税受损部门弹性较大。 ...

首先，我们必须清楚，当前特朗普正处于第二次总统任期，2026年是美国迎接中期选举和建国250周年 的特殊年份。国内政治的极化愈演愈烈，两党斗争不断加剧，这在一定程度上影响了他内外政策的推 进。而在经济领域，特朗普近期的核心目标是推动美联储降息，甚至已经决定了新的美联储主席人选， 等着1月正式宣布。 为了实现这一目标，特朗普需要稳定外部环境，避免不必要的冲突分散精力。然而，这次他的表态依旧 让人感到意外，因为它打破了近年来美国政客在台湾问题上的常规模式。无论是前总统拜登的多次出兵 保台言论，还是美国国会通过的各种涉台法案，都在试图将台湾问题国际化，并干涉中国内政。 不能替中国做决定。特朗普再次提到中国时，言辞有所收敛。然而，如果大陆轻易相信，便如同自愿上 当受骗。 2026年1月9日，特朗普在接受《纽约时报》专访时，提出了一句令人意外的话：中方认为台湾是中国的 一部分，因此最终如何处理台湾问题，将由中方决定。熟悉特朗普风格的人知道，他在处理敏感的领土 主权问题时很少做出如此看似让步的表态，尤其是关于台湾问题。此前，他通常通过保护费、军售等方 式对中国施压，这番话显得非常不同。于是，人们不禁疑惑：特朗普为什么突然 ...

惠誉评级美国经济研究主管奥卢·索诺拉对智通财经表示，本次报告最关键的看点是失业率意外下行，这应当能够缓解 美联储近期需要对劳动力市场紧急托底的压力。同时，这次报告也为美联储争取了时间，使1月降息的决策更难推行。 凯投宏观北美经济研究副主管斯蒂芬·布朗也对智通财经表示，12月就业报告显示，美国就业表现并未如预期般糟糕， 劳动力市场状况略优于联邦公开市场委员会（FOMC）中偏鸽派成员的预测，这意味着美联储并不急于再次降息。 "12月失业率降至4.4%是一个积极消息，主要得益于家庭调查显示的就业人数增加23.2万，超过劳动力规模减少4.6万的 幅度。这证实了我们之前的推测——政府停摆事件部分导致了前期失业率上升。"布朗说。 智通财经记者 | 刘婷 美国劳工统计局周五发布报告称，12月，新增非农就业人数5万人，失业率下降0.1个百分点至4.4%。分析人士指出，12 月新增就业人数基本符合预期，但失业率较上月意外下降，这意味着美联储1月降息通道基本关闭。 美联储将于1月27日-28日召开议息会议。截至发稿，芝加哥商品交易所Fedwatch数据显示，1月，美联储维持利率不变 的概率为95%, 较一天前上升6.1个百分点。 ...
