美聯儲更新Taper指引,加息預期提前
來源:中信證券研究

美聯儲9月會議更新了Taper指引,加息預期有所提前。往後看,我們預計美聯儲Taper大概率將於年底落地,投資者仍需警惕實際利率上行和美元相對走強。

美聯儲9月會議維持基準利率和QE購買量不變

利率方面,本次會議FOMC維持聯邦基金目標利率在0-0.25%不變。資產購買方面,會議維持QE購買量至少1200億美元/月不變(800億國債+400億MBS)。

總體來看,此次會議美聯儲更新了Taper指引,加息預期有所提前

1)會後聲明更新了Taper指引:美聯儲的會後聲明首次更新了有關縮減資產購買(Taper)的指引,認爲“從去年底到現在,經濟已經朝着既定目標取得了進展。如果進展能如預期般繼續維持,委員會判斷可能很快就將放緩資產購買的步伐”。(Since then, the economy has made progress toward these goals. If progress continues broadly as expected, the Committee judges that a moderation in the pace of asset purchases may soon be warranted.)

2)加息預期提前,利率預測中樞擡升:最新點陣圖顯示,9名委員預測2022年至少加息1次(6月爲7名委員);9名委員預測2023年之前至少加息4次(6月爲5名委員),僅1位委員預測2023年之前不加息;首次公佈的2024年預測中,8名委員認爲利率中樞將在2%以上。相較於6月的點陣圖,最新加息時點明顯提前,當前基準情形下預計首次加息在2022年,2023年-2024年利率中樞將分別擡升至1%和2%以上,接近疫情前水平。

3)2021年GDP增速預測下調,PCE通脹預測上調:9月美聯儲經濟預測(SEP)下調了今年的GDP增速預期,GDP同比增速預測從7%下調至5.9%,2022年GDP同比增速預測則上調至3.8%;2021年PCE通脹同比增速預測從3.4%上調至4.2%,核心PCE通脹同比增速預測從3.0%上調至3.7%,2021年失業率預測小幅上調至4.8%,其他變化不大。2021年的經濟增速預測下調和通脹增速預測上調主要反映了Q2以來的疫情反覆以及供應鏈中斷帶來的負面影響,調整幅度基本符合市場預期。

美聯儲Taper臨近,大概率將於年底落地

鮑威爾在會後新聞發佈會上提到,大部分官員認爲Taper指引中“實質性進展”(即Taper要求的就業和通脹目標)基本已經達成。Taper節奏方面,多數官員認爲明年年中完成Taper相對合適(按照150億/月減量規模推算,從今年12月開始Taper,明年年中結束)。我們預計今年年內Taper落地已是大概率事件,美聯儲很可能會在11月會議上宣佈,並於12月正式開啓Taper。由於11月美聯儲會議前僅公佈了10月非農就業數據,因此在11月Taper落地前建議重點關注10月非農就業數據。

美聯儲正常化路徑逐漸清晰,警惕實際利率上行和美元相對走強

往後看,我們依然維持此前的判斷,未來美聯儲的貨幣政策正常化路徑將可能是“短期關注就業、中期關注通脹”來決定。由於今年美聯儲就Taper與市場溝通較爲充分,預計對市場的衝擊會相對弱於2013年Taper時期。基於寬鬆貨幣政策的確定性退出,特別是中期通脹前景調整帶來的加息預期提前,預計10年期美債實際收益率將自8月4日低點緩步上修,今年10年期美債名義收益率運行合理區間將在1.5%-2.0%之間。美元指數自去年4-5月份102水平後“W”走勢的第二個低點基本確立,美元指數將進入1-2年的小週期上行。
