鲍威尔今明两天将迎国会“烤问”,为利率按兵不动立场辩护
Hua Er Jie Jian Wen· 2025-06-24 01:02
Core Viewpoint - Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell will defend the decision to maintain interest rates unchanged for the fourth consecutive time during congressional hearings this week, amidst ongoing pressure from former President Trump for rate cuts [1][2]. Group 1: Interest Rate Policy - Powell is expected to reiterate that the Federal Reserve is in a favorable position to wait for more economic data before considering any rate changes, emphasizing the need for caution [2][3]. - Economists predict that the core inflation indicator favored by the Federal Reserve may have only risen by 0.1% for the third consecutive month in May, marking the mildest inflation performance since 2020 [2][3]. - Internal divisions within the Federal Reserve regarding the impact of tariffs and interest rate policy are highlighted, with two governors indicating potential support for a rate cut in July [2][3]. Group 2: Geopolitical Conflict Impact - Powell is likely to face questions regarding the economic implications of the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran, especially after the U.S. engaged directly in the conflict [3]. - The price of WTI crude oil initially surged above $78 but later fell back to around $66, reflecting investor concerns about supply risks [3]. - Powell has indicated that while energy prices may rise during Middle Eastern turmoil, such fluctuations typically do not have lasting effects on inflation [3]. Group 3: Political Pressure and Independence - Republican lawmakers are expected to pressure Powell for clear reasoning behind the Federal Reserve's wait-and-see stance, although not all Republicans will adopt a confrontational approach [5][6]. - Some Democratic lawmakers may support Powell, warning that the Federal Reserve's independence is under threat from Republican pressures [6]. - Powell is anticipated to maintain a calm demeanor during the hearings, emphasizing that Federal Open Market Committee decisions are based on careful, objective analysis [6]. Group 4: Banking Regulation Agenda - Observers will assess Powell's views on ongoing regulatory changes, as the White House pushes for a relaxation of regulations [7]. - The Federal Reserve is considering proposals to lower the enhanced supplementary leverage ratio, a rule introduced in 2008 that requires banks to hold a certain amount of capital relative to their assets [7]. - Powell may also need to address a proposal from Senator Ted Cruz to prohibit the Federal Reserve from paying interest on bank reserves, which could impact the Fed's ability to control short-term interest rates [7].
美联储独立性被考验,这两国被敦促将黄金撤出美国,去美元化盛行
Sou Hu Cai Jing· 2025-06-23 23:51
美元霸权的"切尔诺贝利时刻"?——黄金大撤离与美联储的政治困境 历史学家或许会将2025年铭记为美元霸权崩塌的元年,以及黄金重回"货币之王"宝座的起点。这一年,政治对信任的摧毁,将人类重新推向对最原始硬通货 ——黄金的依赖。 这一切,都源于美国总统特朗普对美联储的持续施压,以及由此引发的全球黄金储备的"大撤离"。 2026年,现任美联储主席鲍威尔任期届满。此前,他或许从未料到自己会成为华盛顿政治角斗场中的一枚"人肉盾牌"。 特朗普在社交媒体上多次公开斥责 鲍威尔"动作迟缓",并扬言在其任期结束后,将任命一位更为"听话"的美联储主席。此举赤裸裸地削弱了美联储的市场独立性,也对美元的信用造成了巨大 冲击。 德国和意大利,率先发出了将存放在美国的黄金运回本国的强烈呼声,这并非偶然。 这场围绕黄金的博弈,更像是一场精心编排的黑色喜剧。 美联储主席鲍威尔在芝加哥经济俱乐部坚称不会因总统压力而改变政策,然而,高盛的报告却一 针见血地指出:每当特朗普发出一条批评美联储的推文,市场对通胀的预期就会跳涨1个百分点。 德国和意大利,分别持有全球第二和第三大黄金储备,储量分别为3352吨和2452吨,这些黄金都存放于纽约联邦储备银 ...
总统宝座不够坐,特朗普还想当美联储掌柜,降息印钞自己说了算
Sou Hu Cai Jing· 2025-06-22 09:11
Core Viewpoint - The article discusses former President Trump's dissatisfaction with Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, highlighting Trump's desire to potentially replace Powell and the implications of such a move on monetary policy and the independence of the Federal Reserve [1][3][11]. Group 1: Trump's Criticism of Powell - Trump has expressed that he would never reappoint Powell, criticizing him for slow interest rate hikes during the post-pandemic inflation period [3][4]. - Trump's main grievances stem from Powell's monetary policy decisions, which he believes have negatively impacted the economy and stock market [4][5]. Group 2: Political and Economic Implications - Trump's potential appointment as Fed Chair could allow him to implement aggressive monetary policies, such as zero interest rates and unlimited quantitative easing, to create a facade of economic prosperity [7][8]. - This move could undermine the independence of the Federal Reserve, setting a precedent for future political interference in monetary policy [8][11]. Group 3: Personal Financial Interests - Trump's business empire, burdened with $2.3 billion in debt, would benefit from lower interest rates and a favorable monetary policy environment, directly impacting his financial interests [8][9]. - The potential for increased consumer spending due to a loose monetary policy would also positively affect Trump's businesses, including hotels and golf courses [9][11].
帮主郑重划重点!特朗普炮轰鲍威尔背后,美联储降息博弈进入深水区
Sou Hu Cai Jing· 2025-06-21 01:17
Group 1 - The Federal Reserve's probability of maintaining interest rates in July dropped from 91.7% to 83.5% due to recent dovish comments from Governor Waller, indicating internal disagreements within the Fed regarding interest rate policies [1][3] - The Fed revised its GDP growth forecast for this year down from 1.7% to 1.4%, while increasing inflation expectations, suggesting a complex economic environment [3] - Trump's pressure on the Fed has led to heightened expectations for interest rate cuts, with a current probability of around 60% for a rate cut in September [5] Group 2 - The U.S. national debt exceeds $30 trillion, and a 1% reduction in interest rates could save approximately $300 billion in interest payments annually, but potential inflation could counteract these savings [3] - Powell emphasized the Fed's independence and commitment to economic stability, indicating that political pressures are unlikely to alter the Fed's policy direction [4] - Investors are advised to focus on fundamental data and long-term industry trends rather than short-term interest rate fluctuations influenced by political rhetoric [5]
特朗普一刀砍向3亿美国人,员工想上班,但节假日太多,得坎
Sou Hu Cai Jing· 2025-06-21 00:07
难以捉摸的特朗普:百日惊奇,从高尔夫球场到总统令 唐纳德·特朗普的总统任期,如同一部充满戏剧张力的现实剧,每天都上演着出人意料的剧情反转。他那如同过山车般 反复无常的决策风格,让白宫内阁疲于奔命,也让全球媒体时刻紧盯其一举一动。特朗普总统的个人社交媒体账号, 更俨然成为发布国家重大决定的官方渠道,彻底颠覆了传统的白宫新闻发布机制;白宫发言人这个角色,在特朗普时 代,几乎沦为摆设。 四、经济风暴眼:炮轰美联储主席鲍威尔 让我们回顾一下这位非同寻常的总统在任职150天内(截至1月20日)所做出的几项惊世骇俗的决定,以及由此引发的 轩然大波。 一、高尔夫球场上的总统:挥杆与决策的交响曲 媒体统计显示,在短短150个工作日里,特朗普总统竟有33天都耗费在高尔夫球场上,平均每5.6天就要挥杆一次,这 与其口口声声批判美国人假期过多的言论形成了鲜明对比,无疑也为其"高效率"的执政风格蒙上了一层阴影。 这样的 高频次高尔夫行程不仅引发了媒体关于其工作时间分配的质疑,更引发了公众对总统工作效率的担忧。 二、对内:挥舞"行政斧",砍向美国人民的十一假期 特朗普总统在精打细算后,认为美国公民享有的十一假期——包括元旦、马丁·路德 ...
无视特朗普施压,美联储坚持按兵不动,中方再抛82亿美债
Sou Hu Cai Jing· 2025-06-20 07:32
特朗普自重返白宫以来,便开始着手在关税政策上做文章,对美国经济市场造成了极大的冲击,多次因为降息的问题与美联储主席隔空发生冲突,终于在5 月底,双方进行了近年来的首次会面,期间特朗普再次对鲍威尔进行抨击,事后也多次向其施压,核心目的始终只有一个。 特朗普对低利率环境的渴望已成为其经济政策的核心标识,5月30日,他将鲍威尔召至白宫,进行重返总统职位后的首次直接会谈,上次两人会面还是在 2019年,特朗普当面强调不降息是"错误",将使美国"相对中国处于经济劣势"。 这种施压并未止步于这场会议,6月6日,特朗普放话,称下一任美联储主席人选决定即将公布,还隔空向鲍威尔喊话,称其正在给美国金融带来损失。话里 话外就一个意思,再不按照我的要求降息,我就把你换掉。 不过在当地时间6月18日,美联储公布利率决议,仍然按兵不动,很显然,特朗普在此之前的多次施压并没有起到什么有用的效果。而就在同一天,美欧财 政部最新报告显示,中国继3月减持189亿美债之后,再次抛售82亿美债。 直到6月18日美联储公布利率决议的关键时刻前几小时,特朗普还在社交媒体平台持续发声,抨击鲍威尔,并提出利率至少应降2个百分点,甚至表示担任美 联储主席, ...
骏利亨德森:美联储鸽式按兵不动 但为下半年降息保持大门敞开
Zhi Tong Cai Jing· 2025-06-20 02:56
骏利亨德森投资环球短存续期及流动性主管兼投资组合经理Dan Siluk指,美联储鸽式按兵不动,并为 2025年下半年降息保持大门敞开。美联储明确传达出不急于行动的讯号,但若通胀持续回落、劳动市场 继续软化,将随时准备采取行动。通胀预测上调或会使市场较不预期大幅宽松政策出现,但对2025年利 率路径维持不变,则是向市场保证了灵活性。 2025年GDP增速自1.7%下修至1.4%,反映对贸易与全球逆风的担忧。失业率自4.4%微幅上调至4.5%, 显示劳动市场已有初步软化迹象。2025年PCE通胀率由2.7%上调至3.0%,核心PCE由2.8%上调至3.1%, 反映关税与能源价格压力。2025年联邦基金利率预测维持在3.9%,预示降息两次;2026及2027年的利率 路径略为上移,长期利率则为3.0%。 骏利亨德森指,总统特朗普呼吁大幅降息1至2.5%并公开批评鲍威尔,凸显美联储所面临的政治压力。 尽管如此,美联储仍决定按兵不动,进一步巩固了其独立性及对双重使命的承诺。经济预测摘要(SEP) 显示,尽管通胀风险依然存在,但经济与劳动市场预测留有宽松的空间,若情势恶化仍可考虑降息。 骏利亨德森提到,接下来,市场将密切 ...
“新美联储通讯社”:鲍威尔在说“我们不知道,所以我们等”
华尔街见闻· 2025-06-19 10:07
在当天举行的新闻发布会上, 鲍威尔一方面展现出对美联储应对经济变化能力的信心,另一方面却坦诚"我们不知道接下来会发生什么"。 Timiraos认为这种矛盾的态度反映了当前政策的困境:一方面,通胀虽有缓和,但关税政策可能在未来几个月推高物价;另一方面,就业市场虽有疲软迹象, 但失业率仍维持在较低的4.2%。 不确定性下美联储继续观望,但经济信号"模糊不清" 文章指出, 关税政策的不确定性是美联储采取观望态度的主要原因。 然而,4月以来经济数据的表现并不一致,这种模糊性给美联储构成了一大挑战。 Evercore ISI副主席克里希纳·古哈对当前的经济数据给出了一个形象的比喻: 关税政策的不确定性持续笼罩,美联储保持观望立场。 18日周三,在美联储宣布继续"按兵不动"后,有"新美联储通讯社"之称的Nick Timiraos在《华尔街日报》发表题为《美联储静待关税经济结束(The Fed Waits Out the Tariff Economy)》的文章,详细分析了美联储在当前复杂经济环境下的政策立场。 文章指出,美联储正试图弄清楚特朗普4月2日宣布的关税政策会如何影响经济,他们既担心通胀卷土重来,也关注就业市场的潜 ...

关税政策的不确定性持续笼罩,美联储保持观望立场。 18日周三,在美联储宣布继续"按兵不动"后,有"新美联储通讯社"之称的Nick Timiraos在《华尔街日 报》发表题为《美联储静待关税经济结束(The Fed Waits Out the Tariff Economy)》的文章,详细分析 了美联储在当前复杂经济环境下的政策立场。 文章指出,美联储正试图弄清楚特朗普4月2日宣布的关税政策会如何影响经济,他们既担心通胀卷土重 来,也关注就业市场的潜在风险。 在当天举行的新闻发布会上,鲍威尔一方面展现出对美联储应对经济变化能力的信心,另一方面却坦 诚"我们不知道接下来会发生什么"。 在谈到降息时机时,鲍威尔没有给出7月降息的任何暗示,表示: "这可能来得很快,也可能不会来得很快。我们觉得我们将在夏季对关税问题了解更多。" 文章表示,这意味着,面对"半满半空"的数据,美联储选择静观其变,等待更多数据明朗。如果物价在 今年夏天大幅上涨,美联储可能会在更长时间内保持观望。 内部分歧加剧,经济没有"明确疲软"前可能不会降息 美联储内部对于今年是否应该降息出现了明显的分歧。 Timiraos认为这种矛盾的态度反映了当前政策 ...
dbg盾博:美国的政策难以转变,美元面临进一步贬值风险
Sou Hu Cai Jing· 2025-06-19 02:09
基于以上种种风险因素,Thu Lan Nguyen 做出预测,预计到 2026 年 9 月,欧元兑美元汇率将从目前的 1.1561 升至 1.20。更值得警惕的是,还存在一种极端 风险,即如果投资者信心彻底崩溃,越过临界点,美元的贬值幅度可能远超预期。 Thu Lan Nguyen 指出,美国政策难以出现根本性转变,成为美元贬值的重要推手。特朗普执政期间推行的关税政策,原本旨在保护美国本土产业、重塑贸 易格局,却在实际执行过程中产生了诸多意想不到的负面效应。这些政策不仅引发了全球范围内的贸易摩擦,还打乱了原有的国际贸易秩序。从经济层面来 看,关税的增加使得美国企业进口成本大幅上升,挤压了企业利润空间,阻碍了企业的扩张与创新,进而削弱了美国经济的增长优势。而经济增长优势的弱 化,直接冲击了美元作为避险资产的稳固地位。以往,在全球经济动荡或不确定性增加时,美元凭借美国强大的经济实力与稳定的金融体系,成为投资者避 险的首选货币。但如今,美国经济增长势头受挫,投资者对美元的避险信心逐渐动摇,转而寻求其他更为稳定的避险资产,这无疑加速了美元的贬值进程。 与此同时,美元作为世界储备货币的地位也岌岌可危。长期以来,美元在国 ...
