6月22日,當(dāng)被議員問及加息過多、過快是否可能導(dǎo)致經(jīng)濟衰退時,鮑威爾表示,“這不是美聯(lián)儲想要的結(jié)果,但確實有這種可能性”。
With inflation well above the Fed's longer-term goal of 2 percent and an extremely tight labor market, the Fed raised the target range for the federal funds rate at each of the past three meetings.
由于通脹率遠高于2%的長期目標,且勞動力市場嚴重供不應(yīng)求,美聯(lián)儲在過去三次貨幣政策例會上都進行了加息。
Last week, the Fed raised rates by 75 basis points, marking the sharpest rate hike since 1994.
上周美聯(lián)儲宣布加息75個基點,為1994年以來單次最大幅度的加息。
