那么，希腊为何会陷入如此困境？欧洲国家究竟做了些什么？而中国又是如何帮助希腊走出困境的呢？ 2007年，美国爆发了次贷危机，这场危机迅速波及欧盟、日本等地区，并最终演变为一场全球性的金融危机。金融危机对世界经济造成了深远的影响，希腊 无疑是最早受到冲击的国家之一。 2009年，全球发生了一场震动世界的大事件，发达国家希腊面临了前所未有的债务危机，几乎走到了破产的边缘。就在此时，欧洲各国纷纷视希腊为累赘， 有些国家甚至在考虑为稳定欧元，是否应该将希腊踢出欧元区。然而，令所有人惊讶的是，最终帮助希腊摆脱困境的是中国。 除了希腊，葡萄牙、爱尔兰、西班牙等国也面临债务危机，许多国家的经济状况堪忧。希腊政府采取了一些紧缩措施，如减少公共支出、改革税收等，但这 些措施收效甚微。最终，希腊不得不向其他国家和组织寻求援助。尽管许多国家同情希腊，但由于其信用评级低下，援助的可行性受到质疑。更有人提出， 要将希腊从欧元区中剔除，认为对其援助无济于事。 到2009年12月，希腊宣布，他们已经陷入了财政赤字的困境，几乎到了破产的边缘。在此之前，很多国家认为，虽然希腊遭遇金融危机，但凭借其强大的经 济基础，希腊能够通过调整财政自我恢复 ...

智通财经APP获悉，若想推动参议院通过第二任期核心立法议程，唐纳德·特朗普不得不直面更严苛的"选民"——日益膨胀的美国国债持有者。这 位总统刚在众议院以微弱优势通过特朗普"大而美"减税法案，却可能陷入参议院更复杂的博弈：蓝州共和党人就税收优惠讨价还价，保守派议员 在支出问题上临阵倒戈，而债券市场正用收益率飙升发出赤字警报。 据了解，法案通过过程充满戏剧性：为争取纽约、加州等高税州共和党人支持，2017年税改中设定的州和地方税抵扣上限从1万美元被抬升至4万 美元。但周三30年期美债收益率跳涨12个基点，为共和党强硬派提供了新筹码。俄亥俄州议员沃伦·戴维森作为两名反对者之一表示："债券市场 已表明态度。" 参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩定下6月攻坚时间表，但强调最终法案必须"实质性削减支出"。无党派国会预算办公室此前预警，即便没有新税改， 2029年债务/GDP比也将创历史新高。穆迪在降级声明中直言，美国经济实力"难以抵消财政指标恶化"。 图1 众议院通过的法案包含针对小费工作者、购车族、老年人等关键选民群体的税收减免，但参议院共和党人已放出削减开支的风声。南卡罗来纳州 议员拉尔夫·诺曼直言："我们需要多少次警钟才能 ...

上周五美股收盘后，穆迪评级公司宣布将美国的信用评级从最高级别的Aaa下调至Aa1。由于此前惠誉 和标准普尔已分别于2023年和2011年下调美国主权信用评级，美国在三大主要国际信用评级机构中的主 权信用评级均失去了Aaa的最高等级。市场认为，此次穆迪降级的时机格外敏感。当天早些时候，美国 众议院预算委员会内部因强硬派共和党人的阻挠，导致总统特朗普的大规模税改方案未能获得通过。 巨额赤字 穆迪当日发布公告说，评级下调反映出过去十多年来美国政府债务和利息支付比例升至显著高于拥有类 似评级国家的水平。穆迪认为，持续的大规模财政赤字将进一步推高政府债务和利息支出负担。与美国 以往以及其他高评级主权国家相比，美国财政状况很可能恶化。 数据显示，美国联邦政府债务总额目前已超过36万亿美元，仅今年6月就有6.5万亿美元的国债到期。美 国财政部数据显示，截至今年3月的2025财年上半年，美国联邦政府财政赤字已超过1.3万亿美元，为半 年度历史第二高。 穆迪预计，2035年联邦赤字将达到GDP的近9%，高于2024年的6.4%，主要原因是债务利息和福利支出 增加，同时收入相对较低。到2035年，预计联邦债务负担将上升至GDP的 ...
