特朗普敦促美联储理事会推翻鲍威尔的利率决策

摘要

总统唐纳德·特朗普呼吁美联储理事会接管主席鲍威尔的权力,批评鲍威尔未能降息。此言论发布之际,美国就业市场放缓迹象明显,美联储内部关于货币政策的争论持续进行。

总统唐纳德·特朗普周五敦促美联储理事会接管主席鲍威尔的权力,表达了对央行未降低短期利率决定的失望。特朗普在其Truth Social平台上发表评论,称鲍威尔“固执”,并呼吁理事会如果利率没有被“实质性”降低就应采取行动。

美联储今年保持基准利率稳定,鲍威尔表示官员们正在监测近期关税对通胀的影响。两位由特朗普提名的美联储理事克里斯托弗·沃勒和米歇尔·鲍曼周五发表声明,认为关税对价格的影响只是一次性,且就业市场可能正在走软。他们在美联储最近的会议上持异议,主张适度降息,尽管力度不及特朗普所要求的那样大。

尽管此前曾大力宣传经济强劲增长,特朗普欢迎沃勒和鲍曼的异议,在另一条帖子中写道:“美联储理事会强烈异议。异议只会越来越强!”最新的就业报告显示招聘放缓,7月新增岗位为7.3万个,且前几个月数据被向下修正。

特朗普认为更大幅度的降息将支持经济增长并降低借贷成本,坚称通胀率较低。然而,美联储偏好的通胀指标目前为2.6%,高于其2%的目标。特朗普呼吁将基准利率大幅下调3个百分点,但一些分析师警告此举可能导致更高通胀风险。

最近最高法院裁定特朗普不能因政策分歧罢免鲍威尔。白宫随后探讨是否可因美联储翻修项目成本超支而以此为由解雇鲍威尔。鲍威尔的主席任期将持续至2026年5月,届时可进行新一轮任命。
