美聯儲最愛通脹指標又升溫!美國5月個人收入、支出齊下滑
週五,美聯儲青睞的通脹指標出爐。
美國5月核心PCE物價指數高於預期,年通脹率進一步偏離美聯儲2%目標。
數據公佈後,市場反應平淡。週五美股三大股指高開,道指現漲0.87%,標普500指數漲0.6%,納指漲0.55%。

美元指數在短線走低後上揚,現漲0.06%報97.354。

溫和上升
數據顯示,5月美國個人消費支出(PCE)價格指數環比上漲0.1%,同比上漲2.3%,符合市場預期。
扣除食品和能源的5月核心PCE價格指數環比上漲0.2%,同比上漲2.7%,高於預期的2.6%,創2025年2月以來新高。

另外值得關注的是,美國5月個人收入和支出均出現下滑,特朗普政策的不確定性對經濟增長前景構成壓力。
數據顯示,5月個人收入減少1096億美元(月率下降0.4%),可支配個人收入減少1250億美元(0.6%)。
個人消費支出(PCE)減少293億美元,環比下降0.1%,爲年初以來最大降幅。

5月個人支出減少了276億美元,個人儲蓄爲1.01萬億美元,個人儲蓄率(個人儲蓄佔個人可支配收入的百分比)爲4.5%。

9月或迎首次降息?
眼下,美聯儲正考慮下一步的利率舉措。
市場普遍預期,美聯儲將在7月底的會議上維持利率不變。
近期,多項美國經濟數據強化了政策寬鬆預期,交易員對美聯儲降息的押注持續加碼。
上週,美聯儲決定連續第四次按兵不動。據預測,多數官員預計今年將降息兩次。
不過,雖然最近一些美聯儲官員開始暗示若通脹得到控制則支持降息,不過多數仍反對7月降息。
明尼阿波利斯聯儲主席卡什卡利最新表示,預計今年美聯儲將進行兩次降息,首次降息可能在9月進行。
他同時警告,關稅對通脹的影響可能存在滯後性,政策制定者應保持靈活性。
一直以來,特朗普不斷敦促美聯儲放鬆政策,並多次炮轟美聯儲主席鮑威爾爲太遲先生。
最近,他還不斷暗示將很快任命鮑威爾的繼任者。
不過面對特朗普施加的壓力,鮑威爾則始終主張謹慎觀望的立場。
在本週的國會山作證中,鮑威爾警告稱,特朗普關稅政策或推高通脹,影響降息決策。
今晚PCE數據公佈後,美聯儲降息概率變化不大。
據CME“美聯儲觀察”,美聯儲7月維持利率不變的概率爲77.3%(此前爲79.3%),降息25個基點的概率爲22.7%。
9月維持利率不變的概率爲8.1%,累計降息25個基點的概率爲71.6%,累計降息50個基點的概率爲20.4%。
