【导读】美国总统特朗普表示，可能很快宣布美联储新任主席 中国基金报 综合央视新闻、此前报道 美联储新任主席候选人名单，又缩短了！ 8月1日，美联储发表声明称，美联储理事库格勒将辞去美联储理事的职位，将于本月8日正式 卸任。美联储在声明中表示，库格勒将于今秋重返乔治城大学担任教授。美联储并未对库格 勒辞职作进一步说明。库格勒此前在拜登政府期间被提名，并于2023年获参议院确认成为美 联储首位拉丁裔女性理事。 库格勒的理事任期原定于明年1月结束，其提前离职使得美国总统特朗普可提前几个月对美联 储董事会进行新一轮人事任命。 今年以来，特朗普多次批评鲍威尔并威胁解除他的美联储主席职务。鲍威尔则表示，特朗普 作为总统没有解除其职务的合法权限，他将工作至任期结束。 另外，近期特朗普频繁发声，表达对美联储的不满。7月31日，美联储公布7月份货币政策会 议决议，将联邦基金利率目标区间维持在4.25%至4.50%之间不变。特朗普在社交媒体上表 示："'太迟先生'杰罗姆·鲍威尔又是老样子！他行动太迟了，而且实际上，他太愤怒、太愚 蠢、太政治化了。" 特朗普称，鲍威尔根本不适合担任美联储主席一职，他正在让国家损失数万亿美元。特朗普 ...
