现货黄金跌势囿于弱势美指,待FED证实加速收水已无大碍
周二(12月14日),现货黄金承压,但美元指数转跌限制了金价下行空间。尽管新冠变种奥密克戎给欧美抗疫形势带来持续不确定性,但在美联储本周新政公布之前,投资者心态趋于谨慎。
就业似乎不再是障碍
就业增速似乎不再是美联储收紧政策的障碍,美国11月失业率降至4.2%,远低于美联储9月时预估的年底失业率4.8%。美联储有望在明年年中之前实现其最大就业目标。官员们或调降今明两年失业率预估。
美联储的目标是在加息后继续缓步加息,并鼓励劳动力参与率继续改善。渐进的升息进程将使美联储能够宣称其将物价稳定作为优先任务,不会以牺牲其所倡导的广泛而包容的就业目标为代价。
摩根士丹利执行长James Gorman周一接受CNBC采访时表示,他认为美联储可能需要更早开始加息。“我们即将进入升息环境。如果我是美联储,我会更早,而不是更晚,开始行动,储备一些弹药,接受现实。”
DailyFX汇率策略师Ilya Spivak称:“市场主要在等待美联储会议的结果……真正的问题是,我们是否会得到一个明确的鹰派信号?如果它不像市场已经反映出来的那样鹰派,金价可能稍有反弹,但最可能的是仍然倾向于疲软。”
高通胀令美联储苦恼
就目前而言,美国消费者物价涨幅令人难以置信。美国上周五公布的数据显示,11月份消费者物价进一步上升,较上年同期上升6.8%,创1982年以来最大同比升幅,远高于美联储2%的灵活平均目标。通胀预计要到明年3月才会见顶,届时美联储很可能已结束缩减购债,这将使得官员们更难对外传递美联储保持耐心的立场。
美联储为了规划退出紧急时期政策而在说词上大幅转向,反映出其对于疫情引发需求、破坏供应链、造成通胀更为全面且更为持续上扬等事的不安,而通胀也存在着深植于企业及消费者预期的风险。
CME“联储观察”工具的最新数据显示,美联储2022年5月启动加息的可能性为57.8%,全年累计加息三次(75个基点)的概率为58.2%。
美联储官员本周料将修正升息前景,他们需要比以往更快解除宽松政策。如果鲍威尔支持明年升息两次,那将是一个非常强烈的迹象,表明明年年中将升息。
但没人预计,美联储会在本周加息,高通胀为金价提供了一定的支撑。并且除非美联储本周明确宣布下个季度升息,否则年底前金价仍可能升穿1800美元。
