美联储的威廉姆斯说,由于关闭和黑色星期五交易的通货膨胀数据被扭曲,不需要紧急降低利率。
Fed's Williams says no urgent rate cut needed due to skewed inflation data from shutdown and Black Friday deals.
纽约美联储总统威廉姆斯(John Williams)表示, 星期五无需再立即削减利率, 理由是政府关闭扰乱十月及十一月初的物价收集, 导致通胀数据扭曲。
New York Fed President John Williams said Friday there's no immediate need for another interest rate cut, citing distorted inflation data due to the government shutdown disrupting October and early November price collection.
据他估计,11月消费物价指数2.7%的读数可能人为地低约0.1个百分点,黑色星期五贴现定价也导致偏差下降。
He estimated the November CPI reading of 2.7% may be artificially low by about 0.1 percentage points, with Black Friday discount pricing also contributing to a downward bias.
威廉斯强调美联储的现行政策定位良好,已经实施了三次减息,并强调进一步的行动将取决于1月会议之前更明确的数据。
Williams emphasized the Fed’s current policy is well-positioned, with three rate cuts already made, and stressed that further action will depend on clearer data ahead of the January meeting.
