Fed's Powell Shocks Markets After Interest Rate Cut: 'It's A New Phase'
聯儲局鮑威爾在減息後震驚市場:『這是一個新階段』
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.
聯儲局主席傑羅姆·鮑威爾表示,在連續三次減息總額爲100個點子的一年中,隨着利率明顯接近中立的經濟環境,聯儲局正在轉向更加謹慎的立場。
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.
繼週三宣佈最近一次下調25個點子之後,聯邦基金利率目前爲4.25%-4.5%,爲2023年1月以來的最低水平。
"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.
鮑威爾在會後新聞發佈會上說:「我們已經接近中立了。」他補充說:「從現在開始,謹慎行事,尋求通貨膨脹的進一步進展是適當的。」
