穆迪评级机构周二晚将泰国信用评级展望从"稳定"下调至"负面"，主要基于对泰国经济和财政状况进一 步恶化的担忧。穆迪特别提到，美国关税政策带来的不确定性对依赖出口的泰国经济构成重大挑战。 尽管面临多重经济压力，穆迪确认了泰国Baa1主权信用评级，认可其稳健的制度和治理结构，以及有 效的货币政策，这体现在泰国长期以来保持较低且稳定的物价水平，并有效控制通胀预期。 本月中旬，泰国央行助理行长Sakkapop Panyanukul表示，泰国应为外国投资放缓做好准备，因全球贸易 不确定性增加可能带来长期冲击。 鉴于美国计划提高关税，泰国央行已将美国经济增长放缓及全球出口萎缩纳入考量，并下调了GDP增长 预期。泰国央行称，若美国加征关税，泰国今年的经济增长率可能仅为1.3%。 泰国央行指出，经济下行的风险还源于游客减少。相较之下，这与泰国国家旅游局局长此前的讲话存在 较大分歧。 新华财经北京4月30日电（崔凯）泰国央行决定将关键利率降至1.75%，这是自2024年10月以来的第三 次降息。此次降息使利率降至两年来的最低点，符合多数经济学家的预期。 4月27日，泰国国家旅游局局长塔帕妮表示，尽管中国等市场的外国游客数量出现 ...

清明节休假，全家老老小小的住酒店度假，这会晚上都去游泳池玩水了，就我一个人在房间里上钟。 今天虽然不开盘，但非常热闹，发生的事不少，你们听我一件一件说。 首先是中国决定对美发起关税报复，对原产于美国的所有商品加征34%关税，同时把一批美国企业列入 了出口管控管制名单。不仅态度十分强硬，而且反应迅速，美国那边刚宣布第二天中国的反制措施就出 来了，说明很早就已经有相关预案，就等美国出招立刻予以还击。 两边互加34%关税，这外贸基本上就没法做了，几千亿美元的生意，一个不打算再进口了，一个不打算 再出口了，一拍两散，就这么着吧。 美国之所以如此蛮横，底气在于他们是全球最大的贸易逆差国，而且比第2到第10的贸易逆差额加起来 还多，大部分国家在对美贸易中是赚钱的，所以不到万不得已不愿和美国翻脸。另外美国还是全球最大 的消费市场，将近20万亿的规模，占全球的1/3，如果放弃美国市场，多出来的商品卖到哪是一个很棘 手的问题。 具体到中美贸易，去年美国从中国进口5246亿，中国从美国进口1636亿，那显而易见的一笔账，都收 34%关税的话美国能收到更多的钱。但即便如此中国依然在第一时间做出了反击，在全球大多数国家和 地区对美关 ...

This move is expected to impact international oil prices and trade relations significantly [1][3][4]. Group 1: Tariff Implementation - The U.S. will impose a 25% tariff on all goods from countries importing Venezuelan oil starting April 2 [3][4]. - The Secretary of State has the authority to decide on the implementation of these tariffs, which will last for one year from the last import date of Venezuelan oil [3][4]. - Trump referred to this tariff as a "secondary tariff," similar to secondary sanctions aimed at third-party countries [4]. Group 2: Impact on Oil Prices - Following the announcement, international oil prices surged, with WTI crude oil futures rising by 1.21% to $69.11 per barrel, marking the highest level since March 4 [1][4]. - Brent crude oil futures also increased by 1.16%, reaching $73.00 per barrel [1][4]. Group 3: Additional Tariffs - Trump indicated plans to announce additional tariffs on automobiles, wood, and chips in the coming days, suggesting a broader approach to tariffs beyond the Venezuelan oil issue [7][8]. - He mentioned that not all tariffs would take effect on April 2, hinting at potential exemptions for certain countries [7][9]. Group 4: Economic Concerns - Analysts express concerns that escalating tariffs could lead to economic downturns in the U.S., with predictions of a 40% chance of recession this year, up from 30% earlier [10]. - The potential for stagflation, characterized by slow growth and high inflation, is also highlighted as a significant risk [10].
