联邦储备局在通胀担忧中维持利率不变

摘要

联邦储备局维持关键利率稳定,优先考虑通胀问题而非潜在的就业损失,两位官员投票反对,支持降息。

在7月29日至30日的会议上,联邦储备局决定将联邦基金利率维持在4.25%至4.50%不变,理由是对通胀上升的担忧。会议纪要显示,大多数官员认为通胀上升的威胁比潜在的就业损失更为严重。

委员会指出,关税增加的影响在某些商品价格中变得更加明显,尽管其对经济活动和通胀的整体影响仍不确定。尽管7月份就业报告表现弱于预期,大多数成员倾向于等待更明确的数据后再考虑降息。

两名成员,即监管副主席米歇尔·鲍曼和理事克里斯托弗·沃勒持不同意见,主张将利率下调0.25个百分点,以应对劳动力市场的疲软。这是自1993年以来联邦储备理事首次出现此类异议。

主席杰罗姆·鲍威尔计划在即将举行的杰克逊霍尔经济政策研讨会上发表讲话,预计将就联储在持续经济不确定性中的货币政策立场提供更多见解。
