美联储官员激辩今年加息
关键词:美联储官员激辩今年加息
周六,多位美联储官员发表讲话,支持美联储于年底前加息。
旧金山联储主席Wiliiams在周六的一次演讲中表示,他认为在年底前加息仍然是适当的。Williams表示:“考虑到我们已经取得的进展,我们将继续接近我们的目标。我认为接下来适当的一步是逐步提高利率,很可能从今年晚些时候开始。”
另外,圣路易斯联储主席Bullard表示,维持利率不变加大而非减少了全球宏观经济的不确定性。Bullard称,FOMC的目标已经基本达到,但是委员会的政策设定依然处于紧急状态下。
美联储的两大政策目标是就业最大化和稳定的2%的通胀。失业率已于8月跌至5.1%。Williams表示,他预计美国将于今年年底或2016年年初达到完全就业。相比之下,通胀依然低迷。美联储的通胀指数显示,目前的通胀仅0.3%。
美联储在声明中表示:“近期全球经济和金融的进展或将限制经济活动,并可能在短期内进一步拉低通胀。”
Bullard表示,即便小幅度加息后,货币政策依然非常宽松,将继续推动通胀。
Williams表示,尽管美元走强和油价下跌在过去的一年拉低了物价,这些因素应该是暂时性的。他预计通胀将在未来两年达到2%的目标。
Williams和Bullard都表示,10月是美联储加息的可能时点。尽管目前和10月的会议之间没有太多的经济数据(一份非农就业报告和一份CPI报告)。
