New York, Dec 2 (Reuters) - Federal Reserve Bank of New York President John Williams Said on Monday the U.S. Central Bank Is Likely to Lower Its Interest Rate Target Further Over Time as Inflation Pressures Continue to Cool.
纽约，12月2日(路透社) - 美联储纽约分行行长约翰·威廉姆斯周一表示，随着通货膨胀压力继续降温，美国中央银行可能会随着时间的推移进一步降低其利率目标。
“Monetary Policy Remains in Restrictive Territory to Support the Sustainable Return of Inflation to Our 2 Percent Goal,” Williams Said in the Text of a Speech to Be Delivered Before a Gathering of the Queens Chamber of Commerce, Held in New York.
“为支持通胀可持续回到我们的2%目标，货币政策仍然处于限制性领域”，威廉姆斯在将在纽约举行的皇后商会聚会上发表演讲前表示。
Looking Ahead, “I Expect It Will Be Appropriate to Continue to Move to a More Neutral Policy Setting Over Time,” Williams Said, Adding “the Path for Policy Will Depend on the Data. if We’ve Learned Anything Over the Past Five Years, It’s That the Outlook Remains Highly Uncertain.”
展望未来，“我认为随着时间的推移继续转向更中立的政策设置将是合适的”，威廉姆斯说，“政策的路径将取决于数据。如果有一件事在过去五年中我们学到的，那就是展望仍然高度不确定。”
Williams Offered No Firm Guidance About the Timing of Rate Cuts and Whether He Believes the Fed Will Lower Its Interest Rate Target, Now Set at Between 4.5% and 4.75%, at the Federal Open Market Committee Meeting This Month.
威廉姆斯没有明确指导有关降息的时间以及是否认为美联储将在本月的联邦公开市场委员会会议上将其利率目标降低，目前设定在4.5%和4.75%之间。
Markets Have Braced for More Rate Cuts Amid Guidance of Easier Policy From Central Bank Officials, but New Uncertainties Over President-Elect Donald Trump's Policies Have Clouded That Outlook. in a Speech Monday, Fed Governor Christopher Waller Said “at Present I Lean Toward Supporting a Cut to the Policy Rate at Our December Meeting” Depending on How the Data Come in.
市场已经为更多降息做好准备，因为中央银行官员释放出政策放松的指引，但特朗普当选总统的政策带来新的不确定性。周一在演讲中，美联储理事克里斯托弗·沃勒表示，“目前我倾向于在我们的12月会议上支持降低政策利率”，这将取决于数据的情况。
In His Remarks, Williams Said the Economy Is in a “Good Place” and the Labor Market Is “Strong.” He Sees Inflation Continuing to Ebb to the 2% Target Over Time but Warned the Process Could Be Uneven.
威廉姆斯在讲话中表示，经济处于“一个好的状态”，劳动力市场“强劲”。他看到通胀将继续逐渐回落至2%的目标，但警告称这个过程可能会不均匀。
The Official Said the Economy Should Grow by 2.5% This Year or Maybe More, With the Unemployment Rate Between 4% and 4.25% “Over Coming Months.” Williams Said Inflation Should Be 2.25% for the Year and Said the Job Market Was Unlikely to Be a Source of Upward Price Pressures.
官员表示，经济今年应该增长2.5%，甚至可能更多，失业率在4%至4.25%之间，在未来几个月"。威廉姆斯表示，通胀率应该是2.25%，并表示就业市场不太可能成为上行价格压力的来源。
