他表示，美联储经济学家的测算显示，截至8月的12个月里，整体PCE物价指数同比涨幅将达2.7%，高 于前一月的2.6%；核心PCE物价指数同比涨幅则将维持2.9%，与前一月持平。 美联储的这两项预期，均与华尔街对该月度数据的预测一致。 诚然，当前通胀仍高于美联储2%的长期目标。但令鲍威尔及其他美联储高层感到宽慰的是，通胀并未 因美国关税上调而出现"超预期上涨"。 今年以来，美联储一直推迟降息，直至能更清晰判断"关税对通胀的推升幅度"。目前来看，关税对通胀 的实际影响仍较为有限。 与此同时，劳动力市场显现出越来越多的承压迹象：新增就业人数大幅下滑、失业率缓慢上升，且民众 找工作所需时间显著延长。 美联储青睐的通胀指标——个人消费支出（PCE）物价指数将于周五公布，其涨幅料不会呈现"令人高 度担忧"的态势，但投资者更想知道"细节中是否暗藏风险"。 市场预测，8月整体PCE物价指数将环比上涨0.3%，而更受关注的核心PCE物价指数环比涨幅或更低， 为0.2%。后者剔除了波动较大的食品与能源成本，是预测未来通胀的更可靠指标。 美联储主席鲍威尔已在周二的公开活动中提前透露了这份PCE报告的关键预期。 上周，美联储以"劳 ...

美国著名对冲基金经理、城堡投资创始人兼首席执行官肯.格里芬表示，他预计美联储在2025年还会再 次下调基准利率，因为该央行正将注意力转向劳动力市场。格里芬周四在接受采访时表示："我认为他 们今年还会再降息一次，甚至两次。美联储对劳动力市场感到紧张，因为我们确实看到了新增就业岗位 数量下降。" 格里芬表示："在当今这个时代，按季度进行报告是合理的。" 美国劳动力市场开始显现疲软迹象，8月份的失业率升至4.3%，为2021年以来的最高水平。美联储主席 杰罗姆.鲍威尔上周表示，就业市场降温的迹象愈发明显，当时美联储将基准利率下调了25个基点。 格里芬表示："在劳动力市场方面，我们很难确切地知道当前的状况究竟如何。但我们可以确定的是， 如果没有移民涌入，美国的人口增长将会大幅放缓，这将导致我们创造新工作岗位的能力下降。" 格里芬一直主张美联储应保持独立性。本月早些时候，格里芬在一篇评论文章中指出，维护美联储的独 立结构符合美国总统唐纳德.特朗普的最佳利益。 格里芬表示："他希望降低利率，而我要告诉你的是，如果我是总统，我会让美联储履行职责。我会让 美联储尽可能拥有感知上的和实际的独立性，因为美联储往往需要做出一些相当 ...
