6月22日,當(dāng)被議員問(wèn)及加息過(guò)多、過(guò)快是否可能導(dǎo)致經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退時(shí),鮑威爾表示,“這不是美聯(lián)儲(chǔ)想要的結(jié)果,但確實(shí)有這種可能性”。
With inflation well above the Fed's longer-term goal of 2 percent and an extremely tight labor market, the Fed raised the target range for the federal funds rate at each of the past three meetings.
由于通脹率遠(yuǎn)高于2%的長(zhǎng)期目標(biāo),且勞動(dòng)力市場(chǎng)嚴(yán)重供不應(yīng)求,美聯(lián)儲(chǔ)在過(guò)去三次貨幣政策例會(huì)上都進(jìn)行了加息。
Last week, the Fed raised rates by 75 basis points, marking the sharpest rate hike since 1994.
上周美聯(lián)儲(chǔ)宣布加息75個(gè)基點(diǎn),為1994年以來(lái)單次最大幅度的加息。
