Joseph Wang认为,美联储2025年的计划难以预测,因为它取决于未来政治局势和经济政策的不确定性,例如特朗普总统的贸易政策和税收政策。他认为美联储将采取观望态度,对未来将如何应对经济和政治变化持谨慎态度。他认为,关税对通货膨胀的影响是有限的,并且可能导致美联储采取比市场预期更宽松的货币政策。他还认为,如果政府大幅削减财政赤字,短期内可能会对金融市场和经济产生负面影响,但长期来看,这将有利于美国经济。 George Goncalves认为,美联储可能放慢降息步伐,但不会停止宽松政策,因为经济中仍存在限制性因素。他认为,短期利率对经济很重要,因为它直接影响银行贷款等短期融资活动。他认为,市场对美联储降息的预期过于乐观,十年期国债收益率可能在4.25%到4.75%之间波动。他还认为,由于经济和金融环境的变化,过去关于倒挂收益率曲线预测经济衰退的经验可能不再适用。他认为,美联储将利率维持在高于中性利率水平的时间过长,这可能会导致经济脆弱性暴露。他还关注到美元与日元之间的汇率差异以及由此产生的全球风险。
