美债反弹在望 能否成行还看鲍威尔“定调”
Zhi Tong Cai Jing· 2025-09-23 11:57
美国国债正朝着五个交易日以来的首次上涨迈进。交易员预计,多位美联储官员即将发表的讲话,可能 会释放出更多降息信号。 当前美债各期限收益率普遍下行,其中10年期国债收益率下跌2个基点至4.13%。此前,由于美联储官 员在上周释放出对进一步宽松政策持谨慎态度的信号,且周一的相关表态延续了这一基调,美债市场一 直承压。 鉴于周二将有多位美联储官员发表讲话——包括主席鲍威尔及政策制定者古尔斯比、鲍曼和博斯蒂克, 投资者正寻求更明确的方向信号。目前市场对美联储未来政策路径的不确定性较高,因此投资者在押注 时更倾向于选择那些即便经济出现意外波动导致降息计划受阻,仍有望获得回报的标的。 Pepperstone高级研究策略师Michael Brown表示:"市场希望鲍威尔能澄清上周降息被定性为'风险管理 式'举措所引发的部分困惑。"他还补充称,早盘两年期美债的拍卖可能会被市场较好消化。 上周鲍威尔实施备受期待的降息时,将此次降息描述为一次"风险管理式"的举措,并强调需在就业市场 出现的疲软迹象与通胀上行风险之间取得平衡。 自该决定公布以来,美联储官员对未来进一步宽松的时机与可能性释放出了相互矛盾的信号。美联储官 员穆萨勒姆表 ...
