货币政策不确定性增加 欧洲央行近日宣布维持三大关键利率不变，是去年6月启动降息周期以来首次按兵不动。观察人士认 为，鉴于全球贸易局势动荡，欧洲央行将依据外部环境发展和欧美贸易协议后续进展作出调整决定。 欧洲央行在一份声明中指出，欧元区通胀率已达到2%的中期目标，同时今年前几个月的经济增长优于 预期，说明欧洲经济具有韧性，但全球贸易环境仍然呈现高度不确定性。 欧洲央行行长拉加德表示，欧元区制造业和服务业当前总体呈现温和上行趋势。劳动力市场和居民收入 数据向好对消费形成支撑，前期降息带来的融资条件逐步宽松也将促进内需增长。此外，欧盟和一些成 员国增加对国防和基础设施的公共投资，也将助力经济增长。 欧盟统计局7月30日公布的初步数据显示，受美国关税冲击影响，今年第二季度欧元区国内生产总值 （GDP）环比增长0.1%，较一季度有所放缓。分析人士指出，按照近日欧盟与美国达成的新贸易协 议，欧盟对美大部分出口将面临高关税，同时欧盟增加对美投资和能源采购，将导致自身产业竞争力削 弱和就业岗位减少，给经济增长带来制约，欧元区刚有起色的经济复苏恐难持续。 关税重压下增长乏力 欧元区经济二季度0.1%的环比增幅，创下2024年年 ...

美国与欧盟达成协议后，全球贸易紧张局势有所缓解，或让日本央行政策制定者对美国关税冲击下日本 经济的前景重拾信心。日美贸易协议公布后，日本央行副行长内田真一表示，该协议将减少不确定性， 并提高日本持续达到央行通胀目标的可能性。 日本总务省最新数据显示，日本首都东京7月份的核心消费者通胀率仍远高于日本央行2%的目标。剔除 波动较大的生鲜食品价格后，东京7月份核心消费者价格指数(CPI)同比上涨2.9%，略低于3.0%的市场预 期中值。在此之前，6月份的涨幅为3.1%。剔除新鲜食品和燃料成本的所谓"核心的核心"CPI同比上涨 了3.1%，与6月份的涨幅持平。该指数受到日本央行的密切关注，被视为衡量国内需求驱动型价格的指 标。 国际货币基金组织预测，2025年日本名义GDP将被印度反超，跌至世界第五位，主要因日元贬值导致以 美元计价的GDP缩水。这一预测较2023年的预估提前了一年，凸显日本在全球经济格局中的调整压力。 7月31日，日本央行宣布维持基准利率在0.5%不变，并上调了本财年的通胀预期。这是日本央行连续第 4次会议按兵不动，符合市场预期。决议公布后，日元兑美元小幅升值0.5%至148.66。 去年，日本央行 ...
