Mariana Aspuru: 我认为投资者在2025年变得悲观,是多种不确定因素共同作用的结果。这些因素包括贸易战的威胁、持续高通胀以及市场对进一步降息预期减弱。投资者仍在消化这些信息,并试图弄清楚哪些因素将对美国公司和市场产生持久的影响。 Hannah Aaron Lang: 美国投资者协会的每周调查显示,近期投资者对股市看跌情绪达到了47.3%,这是自2023年以来的最高水平。这种悲观情绪并非完全否定股市,而是对当前诸多不确定因素的反映。这些因素包括1月份科技股的回调、持续高通胀以及对进一步降息预期减弱,以及特朗普政府在移民、贸易和联邦劳动力重组等方面出台的政策。投资者正在消化这些信息,并试图确定这些因素对美国公司和市场的影响。经济不确定性也体现在投资者行为上,例如减少投资股票基金,将资金从成长型股票转向价值型和分红型股票,或增加现金持有量。特朗普政府的关税政策也增加了不确定性,尽管部分关税被推迟,但仍让投资者对未来政策走向感到担忧。美联储可能减少降息次数,以及特朗普政府的某些政策可能导致通胀,进一步加剧了投资者对经济前景的不确定性。投资者对未来降息的预期存在不确定性,包括降息时间、幅度以及是否会如预期发生。虽然悲观情绪上升并非总是坏事,部分投资者将其视为逆向指标,但当前市场总体上处于观望状态。经济数据(例如就业报告和通胀报告)以及特朗普政府政策的实际影响将决定投资者情绪的未来走向。当前高估值以及即将到来的财报季将影响投资者对市场走向的判断。因此,建议投资者重新评估自身投资组合,并根据当前风险进行调整。
