Jack Farley: 我认为,与周一英伟达股价暴跌17%相比,此次美联储会议的影响相对较小。市场关注点已经转向人工智能领域,特别是中国推出的DeepSeek模型,其成本远低于预期,这可能意味着人工智能领域的资本支出将减少。美联储声明最初被解读为鹰派,但鲍威尔随后澄清只是措辞问题。债券市场暗示美联储3月份不太可能降息。即将公布的PCE数据可能与预期相符,但并不意味着通胀问题已解决。房租等住房成本下降是积极信号,但通胀仍需进一步下降。DeepSeek模型的出现可能对人工智能领域的资本支出构成负面影响,但对销售最终产品的公司有利。中国人工智能领域的竞争日益激烈,DeepSeek模型的出现以及阿里巴巴的降价策略可能导致人工智能资本支出减少。英伟达将新加坡列为销售地区,可能暗示其芯片绕过对中国的禁令流向中国。我认为,银行的信贷状况和利率风险都比预期要好,银行盈利数据能够提供比宏观经济数据更深入的经济信息。查尔斯·施瓦布公司等银行的盈利数据可以反映零售交易的状况。 Max Wiethe: 美联储会议维持利率不变,市场对最初被解读为鹰派言论的反应较为温和。鲍威尔对政治因素对货币政策的影响保持谨慎态度,不愿公开回应相关问题。经济预测中的不确定性很高,特朗普的政策(例如关税)可能对通胀和利率产生重大影响,但美联储对此保持沉默。特朗普的政策存在导致滞胀的风险。减少移民可能降低失业率,但也会减少就业增长。长期债券收益率上升主要是因为期限溢价上升,而不是对利率预期的变化。美联储退出绿色金融倡议以及取消多元化、公平和包容性政策可能与政治因素有关。我将与Joseph Wang讨论美联储会议、市场以及新政府的经济政策。
