美联储鲍威尔：并没有设定任何固定的利率路径，将逐次召开会议来决策

Fed's Powell: No fixed interest rate path has been set, and decisions will be made at each meeting

The Royal Bank of Canada continues to expect the United States to achieve normalization rather than recession, and the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by 25 basis points in September. The median of the Fed's economic forecast summary (SEP) is expected to show a 75 basis point rate cut this year, higher than the 25 basis point forecast in July, consistent with the bank's forecast. In addition, the bank believes that Fed Chairman Powell's remarks may maintain a cautious attitude - hinting at future rate cuts, without committing to a predetermined path, in order to have greater flexibility in future decision-making.

Odaily Planet Daily Report: Federal Reserve Chairman Powell stated that the Federal Reserve can maintain a strong labor market through policy adjustments. The labor market is not the source of inflationary pressures; indicators show that the current tightness of the labor market is lower than the pre-pandemic level; inflation has eased significantly, but is still above our target; the unemployment rate has risen slightly, but remains at a low level; long-term inflation expectations appear to be stable.

Fed Chairman Powell: Fed can maintain strong labor market through policy adjustments

Odaily Planet Daily Report: Oksana Aronov, Head of Alternative Fixed Income Market Strategy at an asset management firm, said in an interview with CNBC on Tuesday that interest rates are not as restrictive as the Federal Reserve expects... The market has become accustomed to a low-interest rate environment, "This (the market's call for rate cuts) is the impact of the extraordinary unconventional monetary policy of the past 15 years on the market." Aronov said the U.S. unemployment rate is at a historic low, and the market is no longer accustomed to a normal interest rate environment. The current 4.3% unemployment rate is "completely within" the Federal Reserve's 5% target, and any recent weakness is just a return to normal after years of a very tight labor market... We have not really seen widespread weakness. Retail sales and earnings of retailers like Walmart (WMT.N) are strong, indicating robust consumer spending. Aronov said the economy is still steadily growing, and there is no need to "sound the alarm."
