Abstract 摘要 点击小程序查看报告原文 泰国2025年二季度经济展望 宏观经济：复苏进程遭遇意外扰动 2024年泰国实际GDP同比增长2.5%（2023年为2.0%）。虽然世界银行此前预测其复苏势头将延续至2025年，但多重干扰因素给经济前景蒙上阴影。2025 年一季度宏观经济基本面展现韧性，多空因素呈现对冲效应。随着经济动能可能减弱，泰国正面临着增长挑战，其2025年GDP增速预测已被国际货币基金 组织（IMF）下修至1.8%。我们认为以下四大主题值得关注：1）旅游业短暂受挫和随后反弹；2）贸易政策的多重抉择；3）利用财政缓冲释放流动性； 以及4）地震灾后修复和重建。 政策调控：刺激计划和债务减免方案支撑支出 泰国当前的政策框架正依托国内消费和政府支出作为今年的双轮驱动引擎。4月政府提出逾5,000亿泰铢（约合150亿美元）的经济刺激计划以对冲增速放 缓。年内泰国央行已实施两次25个基点的降息操作，基准利率从2.25%调降至1.75%。泰国政策工具箱还包括债务减免方案和数字钱包项目，旨在为负债 群体纾困并刺激消费市场。 贸易格局：美国关税风险的长尾效应 美国关税政策给泰国出口带来不确定性前景。泰国对 ...

Group 1 - The core viewpoint of the articles highlights the criticism of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell by U.S. Vice President Vance, indicating a lack of effective response to the current economic challenges [1][6][7] - Recent economic data from the U.S. shows a contraction in GDP by 0.3% in Q1, marking the first negative growth since Q1 2022, contrasting sharply with previous growth rates of 3.1% and 2.4% in Q3 and Q4 of last year respectively [3][4] - The uncertainty in international trade policies, particularly due to tariffs implemented during the Trump administration, has led to a significant decline in consumer confidence, with the index dropping from 57 in March to 50.8, the lowest in 12 years [4][6] Group 2 - The Federal Reserve's recent decision to maintain the federal funds rate target range at 4.25% to 4.50% for the third consecutive time reflects ongoing concerns about inflation and economic uncertainty [6][7] - The "Beige Book" report from the Federal Reserve indicates minimal changes in economic activity, with the term "tariffs" mentioned 107 times, highlighting the pervasive uncertainty affecting business decisions [4][6] - The combination of weak economic growth, persistent inflation, and trade policy uncertainties suggests that the current policy measures may not be achieving the desired outcomes, raising questions about future adjustments by the Federal Reserve [7]

美联储副主席杰斐逊：由于贸易政策的影响，经济增长预计将放缓，但全年经济仍有望实现扩张。 ...

中美关税互让协议落地后，白宫再度调整跨境贸易政策，试图缓解高关税对微观经济主体的冲击。根据最新行政令，美国将针对小额包裹的从价关税税率从 120%大幅下调至54%，并取消原定于6月上调至200美元的固定费用条款，维持当前100美元标准。这一政策调整距特朗普政府4月宣布取消800美元以下商品 免税政策仅隔月余。 这种矛盾折射出政策目标的内在冲突。数据显示，当前美国日均接收180万个跨境包裹，其中超90%适用最低限度条款，中国商品占比达60%。以Temu、 Shein为代表的跨境电商平台贡献其中六成流量，其低价商品已成为美国中低收入家庭重要消费渠道。加州大学经济学家Pablo Fajgelbaum测算，若完全取消 免税政策，美国家庭年支出将增加109亿美元，低收入群体承受的负担将是高收入家庭的3.2倍。 但实际执行层面呈现更大弹性。两名美国快递业内部人士向媒体披露，海关对华包裹实际征收税率默认为30%，显著低于行政令规定的54%基准。更值得关 注的是，当商品价值低于800美元时，部分包裹仅需支付100美元固定费用，等效税率低至12.5%，形成"名义高关税、实际低征收"的差异化操作空间。 政策反复令跨境贸易商处境艰 ...

值得注意的是，维勒鲁瓦特别强调贸易政策对欧元区的影响路径。他指出，特朗普任内若实施关税措 施，虽可能通过贸易渠道对欧洲经济产生外溢效应，但直接输入性通胀风险有限。这一判断成为欧洲央 行区别于美联储的关键政策考量——当前市场普遍预期美联储因国内通胀韧性将维持高利率，而欧洲央 行则具备更大宽松空间。 作为欧元区货币政策的实际制定者之一，维勒鲁瓦的表态折射出决策层的核心逻辑：在确保通胀的前提 下，利用当前物价稳定窗口期，通过降息缓冲全球经济放缓对欧元区经济的冲击。这一政策取向若在6 月会议兑现，将是欧洲央行连续第八次调整利率，进一步巩固其全球主要央行中最激进宽松周期的地 位。 当前市场密切关注6月6日及7月24日召开的两次货币政策会议。尽管部分官员支持6月继续降息，但对后 续政策节奏存在分歧：鸽派认为应抓住通胀持续回落窗口期加快宽松步伐，而谨慎派则警告需防范地缘 政治风险和薪资上涨可能引发的物价反弹。 智通财经APP获悉，欧洲央行管理委员会委员弗朗索瓦·维勒鲁瓦·德加洛周二在接受采访时指出，若特 朗普政府推行保护主义政策，可能引发美国通胀回升，但欧洲通胀压力不会因此加剧。这一判断为其支 持欧洲央行夏季降息的立场提供 ...

金十数据5月13日讯，美国投资管理公司First Eagle高级副总裁Idanna Appio表示，在4月份温和的CPI报 告之后，未来几个月美国通胀可能会回升。预计在贸易方面还会有其他举措，可能会宣布新的关税和协 议。我们必须拭目以待，看看其中一些交易的结果如何。最近的美英贸易协议和与中国的关税暂停表 明，关税将"大大低于"此前的预期。美联储似乎更愿意接受这样一种观点，即关税对通胀的影响可能不 仅仅是暂时的。 随着贸易政策的演变，美国通胀预计会上升 ...
