美联储耶伦表示不排除实施负利率的可能性

随着市场对美国经济陷入衰退的担忧加剧,周四(2月11日日)美联储主席耶伦出席美国国会参院听证会期间表示,未来经济确实存在衰退的可能性,但任何年份都有可能面临这一问题。她还表示美联储正在研究,如果经济形势恶化,负利率是否对经济有帮助,不排除实施可能性。
耶伦重申任何年份均存在经济衰退的可能性,但她表示,当前所有证据仍表明,美国经济还在持续复苏过程中。
当共和党参议员Bob Corker 问及美联储是否会考虑实施负利率时,耶伦开门见山,她重申周三的声明,2010年美联储曾考虑负利率,但认为当时实施负利率并非一个好的选择。
耶伦透露,美联储在参考欧元区和其它国家的负利率实施情况,因为要为今后不时之需做准备。美联储还未完成对负利率的评估工作。对于负利率,需要在制度体系下思考,看是否会运转得好。上日,耶伦在听证会上表示,负利率是否合法,还不清楚。美国实施负利率是否受什么限制,也不清楚。
市场参与者担忧央行负利率的有效性及其负面影响。耶伦证词公布后,道琼斯工业指数延续跌势,一度下跌了230点,尾盘跌幅有所收窄。
双线资本(DoubleLine Capital)的债券大师冈拉克(Jeff Gundlach)表示,他不认为美联储会实施负利率,堆积的经验证明负利率是有害的,毫无帮助的。
耶伦称,油价走势令美联储震惊,油价下跌迄今对经济的影响主要是负面的,但总体而言低油价有利于美国经济。美元升值在意料之内,因为美国经济表现强劲,加上其他央行与美联储的政策分歧加速了美元资本流动。但美元持续保持强劲有些许在意料之外,尽管最近美联储一直追踪美元走势。
耶伦指出,美元升值幅度有些许出乎预期。美元走强对抑制通货膨胀挥发了重要作用。
去年12月份,美联储逾9年来首次上调利率25个基点。然而,全球其他各国央行均仍在降息的状况之上。在耶伦的讲话之前,标普500指数开年已经累计下跌近10%。
