Topics
Jerome Powell: 我认为美联储的首要职责是维护价格稳定。当前的高通胀是全球现象,是强劲需求和供应受限共同作用的结果。美联储的政策工具主要影响总需求。公众的通胀预期会影响实际通胀,因此维持低通胀预期至关重要。我们必须坚持限制性货币政策,直到通胀得到控制,避免过早放松政策。 Neil Kashkari: 我对鲍威尔主席在杰克逊霍尔研讨会上的讲话的反响感到满意。市场的下跌表明人们已经认识到美联储致力于将通胀率降至2%的决心。美联储的声誉至关重要,我们将不遗余力地维护它。 Zoltan Pozsar: 我认为当前的通胀是结构性的,是不断升级的经济战争和持续的疫情造成的,而不是简单的周期性问题或过度刺激的结果。 David Stein: 当前的通胀是由强劲的需求和供应受限造成的,政府的刺激措施和量化宽松政策也加剧了这一问题。俄罗斯的商品供应减少和中国的清零政策也对通胀起到了推波助澜的作用。劳动力短缺、商品领域产能限制以及持续的经济冲突都可能导致持续高通胀。然而,消费者的行为改变(例如减少消费或购买更便宜的商品)、生产力提高、人口增长放缓以及消费者对环境和社会责任的日益关注,都可能缓解高通胀。应对高通胀的投资策略包括投资土地和房地产、能够提高价格的企业或技能以及大宗商品期货等。
