Sabri Beneshour: 美元汇率下跌超过1%,创下三年新低。这可能反映出全球投资者对美元安全性的担忧,这与特朗普总统发起的贸易战以及他威胁美联储独立性的言论有关。 投资者对美元的信心动摇,这直接导致了美元的贬值。这种不确定性使得全球投资者重新评估美元作为安全资产的可靠性。 美元的持续下跌将对全球经济产生深远的影响,并可能引发一系列连锁反应。 Julia Coronado: 特朗普总统关于美联储主席的言论加剧了人们对美国经济环境不稳定和通货膨胀的担忧,进一步影响了美元汇率。 如果贸易战导致通货膨胀,而美联储表示在这种情况下不一定能够降息,那么这无疑令人担忧。如果总统威胁要罢免美联储主席,那么这只会加剧人们对美国经济环境将不稳定且通货膨胀的担忧。 这些因素共同作用,导致投资者对美元的信心下降,从而导致美元贬值。 Nancy Marshall-Genzer: 海外投资者希望美元保持稳定,因为美元下跌会降低他们以美元计价的投资价值。如果交易员避开美元投资其他国家货币,美元将继续下跌。 美元的稳定性对全球经济至关重要。如果美元持续下跌,将对全球金融市场产生重大影响,并可能引发全球经济动荡。 因此,维持美元的稳定性对美国和全球经济都至关重要。
