Fed's Powell Shocks Markets After Interest Rate Cut: 'It's A New Phase'

美联储鲍威尔在降息后震惊市场:‘这是一个新阶段’
Benzinga ·  12/18 12:58
In a year marked by three consecutive rate cuts totaling 100 basis points, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said the Fed is shifting gears to a more cautious stance heading into 2025 as interest rates move tantalizingly close to a neutral environment for the economy.
美联储主席杰罗姆·鲍威尔表示,在连续三次降息总额为100个基点的一年中,随着利率明显接近中立的经济环境,美联储正在转向更加谨慎的立场。
Following the latest 25-basis-point reduction announced Wednesday, the federal funds rate now sits at 4.25%-4.5%, the lowest since January 2023.
继周三宣布最近一次下调25个基点之后,联邦基金利率目前为4.25%-4.5%,为2023年1月以来的最低水平。
"We're significantly closer to neutral," Powell said during the post-meeting press conference. "From this point forward, it's appropriate to move cautiously and look for further progress on inflation," he added.
鲍威尔在会后新闻发布会上说:“我们已经接近中立了。”他补充说:“从现在开始,谨慎行事,寻求通货膨胀的进一步进展是适当的。”
