Core Viewpoint - The Federal Reserve's decision to lower the federal funds rate target range by 25 basis points to 4.00%-4.25% marks the beginning of a monetary easing cycle, which will have significant implications for global liquidity, capital flows, and exchange rate dynamics, particularly affecting China's economic recovery efforts [1][4][10]. Summary by Sections Federal Reserve's Decision - The 25 basis point rate cut reflects a careful balance between persistent inflation and economic growth challenges, with a 96.1% probability of this outcome predicted by CME Group data prior to the meeting [4]. - The Fed's cautious approach aims to avoid reigniting inflation expectations while providing room for future adjustments based on economic conditions [5][6]. Global Impact - The Fed's rate cut will lead to a depreciation of the US dollar, which fell to 96.22, the lowest since February 2022, affecting commodity prices and creating opportunities for resource-exporting countries while increasing production costs for manufacturing nations like China and Germany [8][9]. - International capital flows are expected to shift towards emerging markets as the attractiveness of dollar-denominated assets declines, potentially boosting stock and bond markets in those regions [9]. Implications for China - The weakening dollar may enhance the competitiveness of Chinese exports while reducing the costs of imported commodities, benefiting manufacturing sectors [10]. - However, the potential for the renminbi to appreciate poses challenges for export-oriented businesses, particularly those reliant on low-cost advantages [10][11]. - The narrowing of interest rate differentials may alleviate capital outflow pressures, providing short-term support for China's capital markets [10]. Policy Recommendations for China - China should maintain monetary policy autonomy while ensuring liquidity remains adequate, focusing on targeted measures to support sectors like technology and small enterprises [14]. - To address the dual challenges of exports and imports, China should promote industry upgrades and enhance the competitiveness of its exports through innovation and technology [14][15]. - Long-term capital attraction should focus on institutional reforms rather than short-term incentives, ensuring a stable and transparent investment environment [15]. Conclusion - The Fed's rate cut signifies a transition from a high-interest rate environment to a more accommodative one, providing a temporary easing of external pressures for China [16]. - However, sustainable economic growth in China will depend on strengthening internal drivers, including technological independence and structural upgrades [16].

美东时间9月17日周三，美联储在货币政策委员会FOMC会后公布，联邦基金利率的目标区间从4.25%至 4.5%降至4.00%至4.25%，降幅25个基点。 这是美联储今年开年以来六次FOMC会议首次决定降息，美联储主席鲍威尔在记者会上表示，虽然失业 率依然处于低位，但已经略有上升，新增就业岗位减少，就业面临的下行风险也在增加。与此同时，通 胀最近有所上升，仍然略高于正常水平。同时，美联储也决定继续缩减所持证券规模。 而他在问答环节则表示，今天联邦公开市场委员会（FOMC）对降息50个基点呼声的支持并不多。 以下是鲍威尔记者会问答环节： Q1：你们今天欢迎了新的联储委员会成员Steven Myron，但他仍然保留了白宫职务。这是几十年来首 次有联储理事与白宫行政部门有直接联系。这是否削弱了美联储在日常事务中保持政治独立性的能力？ 此外，在这种情况下，你们要如何维持公众对美联储政治中立的信任？ 鲍威尔：我们今天确实迎来了一位新的委员会成员，就像我们历来会做的那样。委员会在追求双重使命 目标上仍然是团结一致的。我们坚定地致力于维护我们的独立性。除此之外，我没有更多要分享的。 Q2：你和其他美联储官员经常谈到关税对通 ...

一个大放水的时代即将到来，你做好准备了吗？ 9月17日，美联储将召开9月份的议息会议，目前市场的普遍预期，是降息25个基点。 但比起接下来的大放水，这25个基点只能算是毛毛雨。 德国商业银行最近发布的一篇分析，惊出了华尔街的一身冷汗，在这篇分析中，德国商业银行指出了一个惊人的事实：不知不觉间，特朗普距离接管美联储 已经越来越近了。 而特朗普一旦接管美联储，全球经济大放水将不可避免，不管是对美债黄金外汇，还是对中国的楼市股市存款，都将影响巨大，这将关系到我们每一个人的 钱袋子。 而现任的7名理事里，除了美联储主席之外，有两个人是特朗普上一个任期提名的，他们就公开站在了特朗普的一边，比如克里斯托弗·沃勒，他一直紧跟特 朗普的脚本，呼吁美联储应该大幅度降息，他也被认为是下一任美联储主席的热门人选。 为什么说特朗普即将接管美联储呢？这得从美联储的决策机制说起。 美联储的最高决策机构，叫做联邦市场公开委员会，里面一共有12名票决委员，每次加息降息印钞这些大事，都由这12个人投票说了算。 这12个人里面，有8名常设成员和4名轮换成员。 4名轮换成员都是地区联储银行的行长，任期只有一年，所以影响力比较弱，必须听其它大佬的， ...

Core Viewpoint - The recent announcement by Trump to potentially dismiss Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook marks a significant deviation from over a century of presidential restraint regarding the Federal Reserve's independence [1][2]. Group 1: Political Dynamics - Trump's ongoing conflict with Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell over monetary policy has escalated, with Trump advocating for interest rate cuts to alleviate government debt pressure, while Powell insists on maintaining the independence of monetary policy [1]. - The Federal Reserve's board, which is supposed to remain neutral, has become a battleground for political power struggles, with Trump aiming to secure a majority by appointing his allies [1]. Group 2: Implications for Monetary Policy - If Trump successfully exerts control over the Federal Reserve, it could lead to quicker interest rate cuts, potentially shifting international capital towards emerging markets like China and strengthening the renminbi [2]. - The independence of the Federal Reserve is at risk of being undermined, raising concerns that monetary policy could become a tool of political influence rather than an independent economic mechanism [2]. Group 3: Historical Context - This situation represents an unprecedented challenge to the Federal Reserve's century-long tradition of independence, with global markets closely monitoring the developments [2].

Core Viewpoint - The article highlights the criticism from U.S. Treasury Secretary Mnuchin towards the Federal Reserve, emphasizing concerns over its independence due to its expanded functions and the use of non-standard policies [1][2].

Group 2: Call for Independent Review - Mnuchin demands an honest, independent, and non-partisan review of the entire Federal Reserve, including its monetary policy, regulation, communication, staffing, and research [3]. - He expresses anticipation for a response from the Federal Reserve regarding his call for an internal review, emphasizing that good management is achieved through action rather than mere discussion [3]. Group 3: Regulatory Framework Concerns - Mnuchin criticizes the Dodd-Frank Act for significantly expanding the Federal Reserve's regulatory scope, which he believes has blurred the lines between monetary and fiscal policy [4]. - He suggests a more coherent framework where the FDIC and OCC lead bank regulation while the Federal Reserve focuses on macro monitoring, lender of last resort liquidity, and monetary policy [4]. Group 4: Monetary Policy Experimentation - Mnuchin compares the Federal Reserve's new operational model to an uncontrolled experiment, indicating that the unconventional monetary policy tools released post-2008 financial crisis have altered the Fed's policy framework with unpredictable consequences [5][6]. - He cites the Fed's failure to accurately predict GDP growth, highlighting a significant overestimation of over $1 trillion in GDP during the recovery period [6]. Group 5: Inequality and Quantitative Easing - The article discusses Mnuchin's criticism of the quantitative easing (QE) policies post-2008, arguing that they disproportionately benefited asset owners and exacerbated wealth inequality [7]. - He points out that while large corporations benefited from low-cost debt, younger and less affluent families were left behind, suffering the most from inflation and missing out on asset appreciation opportunities [8].

Group 1 - The core argument revolves around the complex interplay between gold prices, inflation, and Federal Reserve policies, highlighting the potential for gold prices to soar if the Fed's credibility is compromised [1] - Gold prices are influenced by three main factors: inflation, the US dollar, and geopolitical tensions, which create a tug-of-war between bullish and bearish forces [2][3][4] Group 2 - The Federal Reserve's policy statements significantly impact market dynamics, with interest rate decisions reflecting internal divisions among officials regarding future rate cuts [6][7] - Market reactions to Fed officials' comments can lead to substantial fluctuations in gold prices, indicating the importance of the Fed's perceived credibility and independence [7] - The PCE price index serves as a critical indicator for the Fed's policy direction, with market expectations shifting based on upcoming data releases [8] Group 3 - The market demonstrates a keen ability to interpret Fed policies, with gold ETFs acting as a barometer for investor sentiment, showing significant inflows in 2024 [10] - Technical analysis plays a crucial role in trading strategies, with specific price levels acting as support and resistance, amplifying the effects of policy announcements [11] - Institutional reports suggest that even a minor shift in US Treasury holdings towards gold could lead to dramatic price increases, reflecting the market's sensitivity to Fed policies [12]

Group 1 - The core concern is whether Stephen Milan's potential appointment to the Federal Reserve Board will undermine the central bank's long-standing independence amid ongoing pressure from the Trump administration [1][3] - Milan emphasizes the importance of the Federal Reserve's independence in preventing severe economic downturns and hyperinflation, stating that he will prioritize this independence if confirmed [3][4] - If confirmed, Milan will fill the vacancy left by Adriana Kugler's resignation and may only serve for a few months before her term officially ends in January [3] Group 2 - There is a prevailing view that Trump's nomination of Milan aims to position him as a "shadow chairman" within the Federal Reserve, primarily to disrupt the current decision-making balance rather than to formulate conventional policies [4] - As a Federal Reserve Board member, Milan would gain voting rights on interest rate decisions and significant regulatory decisions related to Wall Street, which could indirectly affect the central bank's operational efficiency [4] - Trump's intention is clear, as he has expressed a desire for a majority of the Federal Reserve Board to support his policy views, which would allow him greater flexibility to alter the Fed's policy direction [4]
