美联储主席的看法也许是对的。只要全美五六月疫苗能够初步完成大范围接种,美国服务型经济或将快速恢复。由于其他国家疫苗接种速度慢于美国的原因,美国国内游或将今年创纪录!
Jerome Powell is more concerned about rising infections than rising prices. "The recovery here remains uneven and incomplete," the Fed chief told a virtual IMF panel. The world won't be able to fully resume economic activity until the virus is controlled everywhere, he said, while urging people to get vaccinated. Powell reiterated the central bank's view that an expected spike in inflation will be temporary and that officials have the tools to deal with it if need be. He deflected a question over whether he'd serve a second term.
U.S. stocks rose as investors took heart from Powell's inflation reassurances. The S&P 500 reached another record amid slow trading, with volume on U.S. exchanges hitting a low for the year. Treasuries jumped, sending 10-year yields down more than 5 bps to around 1.62%. The dollar dropped, with the Swedish krona pacing G-10 gains. WTI hovered just below $60, while gold climbed 1%. Asian equity futures are narrowly mixed.
