“Having come so far so quickly, the (Fed’s policymaking committee) is moving forward carefully, as the risks of under- and over-tightening are becoming more balanced,” Powell said in a speech at Spelman College in Atlanta.
鲍威尔在亚特兰大斯佩尔曼学院的一次演讲中说：“（美联储决策委员会）走得这么快，正在谨慎地向前迈进，因为紧缩不足和过度紧缩的风险变得更加平衡。”
He added, “It would be premature to conclude with confidence that we have achieved a sufficiently restrictive stance, or to speculate on when policy might ease. We are prepared to tighten policy further if it becomes appropriate to do so.”
他补充说：“现在就自信地得出结论，认为我们已经采取了足够严格的立场，或者猜测政策何时会放松还为时过早。如果合适，我们准备进一步收紧政策。”
