面对特朗普最新关税威胁，华尔街表现出惊人的冷静，分析师甚至趁机上调股市目标价。 据央视新闻，特朗普周二威胁对铜加征50%的关税，对药品则征收高达200%的关税。铜关税将于7月稍晚或8月1日到位，药品关税过渡期可能至少一年，方 便企业在关税生效前将供应链转移回美国。 对于新关税，股市几乎无动于衷，S&P 500指数仅下跌0.07%。 这一轮关税威胁本应引发市场震荡。据媒体统计，如果这些关税如期实施，美国进口商品的平均税率将达到一个世纪以来的最高水平，回到大萧条时期《斯 穆特-霍利法案》的水平。如果其他国家也面临类似关税，整体税率将达到自1897-1901年威廉·麦金利总统时代以来的最高水平。 与此同时，华尔街分析师却在这一轮看似不利的贸易消息中上调了预期。 高盛的David Kostin将其理由归结为预期市盈率上调8%，从20.4倍调至22倍明年预期收益。他表示： 比我们此前预期更早更深的美联储宽松政策和更低的债券收益率，大型股的持续基本面强势，以及投资者愿意忽略近期可能的盈利疲软，都支持 我们上调S&P 500前瞻市盈率预测。 关税威胁成空头支票，市场形成"TACO"共识 市场对关税威胁的漠视反应背后，是投资 ...

特朗普的关税策略：市场阻力或只是"噪声" 自2025年1月20日上任以来，美国总统特朗普通过一系列新的关税措施重燃贸易紧张局势。他对多种美 国进口产品征收关税，包括钢铁和铝，并提出"对等关税"的概念，旨在与其他国家对美国商品征收的关 税相匹配。尽管特朗普的关税策略并不新鲜，但其对金融市场和经济的影响比焦点报道所引发的轰动要 微妙得多。 关税措施影响 特朗普的"对等关税"导致美国进口商品的关税高于预期，这是基于特朗普政府对特定国家对美国商品实 施的关税和非关税壁垒的估计。亚洲国家普遍被针对性征收更高关税，欧盟（20%）和日本（24%）也 面临高关税率。依据《美墨加协定》，加拿大和墨西哥似可获得豁免，不过之前宣布的关税仍然有效。 而针对不同国家和地区采取不同关税税率的方案一经公布，各贸易伙伴可能会相继与美国开展双边磋 商。 关税本身会减慢增长并推高通胀，这是意料之内的事情。而根据国际货币基金组织及美国联邦贸易委员 会的估算，如果上述关税措施全面实施并发生传导效应，则关税总额可能占美国GDP的2%以上，对美 国企业和消费者来说是一笔沉重的负担，它还可能使美国消费者通胀增加近2%，并可能对国内生产总 值增长造成1%～ ...

美股在近期因关税骤跌后迅速反弹，这表明，在特朗普调整政策之前，华尔街的损失可能有一个新的阈 值。 特朗普在去年11月大选中获胜后，华尔街一片欢腾，推动美国股指在2月之前持续创下历史新高。宾夕 法尼亚大学沃顿商学院金融学教授杰里米·西格尔（Jeremy Siegel）甚至称特朗普为美国历史上"最亲股 市的总统"。 然而，紧随其后的是1月份开始的贸易争端；到春季，这场争端严重升级，引发了市场极度动荡，并敲 响了美国经济可能衰退的警钟——直到特朗普缓和了局势。 "我们知道'特朗普看跌期权'依然有效，"Fundstrat的研究主管、美股多头汤姆·李（Tom Lee）在周一的 播客中说,"白宫不希望美股下跌。" 在近期美国关税谈判取得进展后，标普500指数在周二回到2025年至今上涨区域，这表明，"底线"可能 是距今18.5％的回调幅度左右，这是基于标普500指数从4月8日收盘低点4982.77点以来的反弹情况得出 的。 在特朗普于4月9日暂停了对大多数国家的"对等关税"后，美股收复了失地；5月12日，中美贸易谈判取 得积极进展，美股又一次大涨。 值得注意的是，沃顿商学院教授西格尔曾在去年11月警告称，金融市场可能对特 ...

美债继续下跌 此前受到对等关税影响，美股美债齐跌。而近期，关税政策的缓和令美股涨回正区间，美债却仍在持续 下跌。哪些因素令美债继续承压呢？ 在4月初美国总统特朗普宣布所谓"对等关税"后，美元资产遭遇全球性抛售，美股美债齐跌。而近期， 随着关税问题有了一定程度的缓解，美股美债走势却并未同步复苏，而是出现分化。 美股周二继续上涨，使得标普500指数重新回正区间。但10年期美债收益率却继续上涨，且仍高于所谓 对等关税宣布前的平均水平。分析师认为，多因素下，美债还将继续承压。 13日，标普500指数继续上涨，使得该指数年内累计录得0.1%的涨幅，扭转了此前关税影响下，累计下 跌17%的颓势。 投资研究公司TS Lombard全球宏观战略董事总经理帕金斯（Dario Perkins）对一财记者表示，这波市场 狂热让市场惊呼"特朗普看跌期权"（Trump put）已回归，即市场下跌将促使特朗普政府采取措施支撑 市场。但他表示，这一次有趣的一点在于，市场对特朗普2.0时代的"乐观情境"基本上并非基于特朗普 政府额外给予了什么支撑措施，而仅仅基于他扭转了迄今为止所做的大部分工作（关税政策）。一切仅 仅是回到了原点。 但10年 ...
