美联储主席鲍威尔:预计3月份加息将是合适的
老虎资讯综合2022-03-02
3月2日,美联储主席鲍威尔表示,预计3月份加息将是合适的,乌克兰战争对美国经济的影响“高度不确定”。劳动力市场非常紧张,通胀远高于目标。
鲍威尔指出,在这种环境下制定适当的货币政策,必须认识到经济以意想不到的方式发展。美联储将需要灵活应对即将到来的数据和不断变化的经济前景。
通胀方面,鲍威尔预计随着供应问题的缓解和需求缓和,今年通胀将下降,并表示美联储正在关注通胀预期和通胀压力上升的风险,这是由一系列因素造成的。
他表示,奥密克戎毒株变体导致的美国经济放缓似乎是短暂的。但供应中断比预期的更大、持续时间更长。劳动力市场非常紧张,工资增长速度是多年来最快的。
缩表方面,鲍威尔称,在加息过程开始后,美联储将开始缩减资产负债表。缩减资产负债表将以可预测的方式进行,主要是通过调整再投资。
