ChainCatcher 消息，据金十报道，美国上周初请失业金人数增幅超过预期。劳工部周四表示，在截至 2 月 22 日的一周里，初请人数增加了 2.2 万人，经季节性调整后为 24.2 万人，高于市场预期的 22.1 万人。 一项单独的联邦雇员失业补偿（UCFE）计划显示，联邦政府试用期员工的大规模裁员尚未造成任何影响，其中大部分人是在 2 月 14 日前后被马斯克的政府效率部（DOGE）解雇的。 在政策制定者密切关注特朗普财政、贸易和移民政策对经济的影响之际，处于历史低位的裁员正保持着经济扩张的势头，这给了美联储维持利率不变的空间。经济学家认为，特朗普政府的政策会导致通胀。

According to a report by ChainCatcher, the number of initial jobless claims in the US last week increased more than expected. The Labor Department said on Thursday that in the week ending February 22, the number of initial claims increased by 22,000, seasonally adjusted to 242,000, higher than the market expectation of 221,000. A separate Federal Employee Unemployment Compensation (UCFE) program showed that the mass layoffs of federal probationary employees have not had any impact, most of whom were laid off by the government efficiency department (DOGE) around February 14. As policymakers closely monitor the impact of Trump's fiscal, trade and immigration policies on the economy, the historically low layoffs are maintaining the momentum of economic expansion, giving the Federal Reserve room to keep interest rates unchanged. Economists believe that the Trump administration's policies will lead to inflation.

U.S. jobless claims rose more than expected last week, giving the Fed room to keep interest rates unchanged

Odaily reports that Brian Moynihan, the CEO of Bank of America, said on Tuesday that the bank expects the Federal Reserve to keep interest rates unchanged this year and next. He pointed out at a conference in Washington that "it will take years to squeeze out inflation, and the Fed's efforts to control inflation are likely to continue until 2026." The Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) report on Friday is expected to show the Fed's progress in fighting inflation. Fed policymakers are currently keeping interest rates unchanged. They have also stated that they are looking for more evidence that the inflation rate is returning to the 2% target before they feel comfortable cutting rates. They cited the uncertain impact of measures in the Trump plan, such as tariffs, tax cuts, cracking down on immigration, and continued layoffs of federal policy employees, on prices, economic growth, and the labor market.

Bank of America CEO: Fed will keep interest rates unchanged this year and next

Odaily Odaily reports that the number of initial jobless claims in the US for the week ending February 22 was 242,000, expected to be 221,000, and the previous value was revised from 219,000 to 220,000. (<金十>)

The number of initial jobless claims in the United States for the week ending February 22 was 242,000, compared with expectations of 221,000 and a previous value of 220,000.

Odaily reports that analyst Giuseppe Dellamotta stated that the US weekly jobless claims data will be released tonight. As a more timely indicator reflecting the state of the labor market, this data remains one of the most important weekly data points. Initial jobless claims have remained in the 200,000-260,000 range created since 2022, while continuing jobless claims, although showing some relief recently, continue to hover around the cyclical highs. Given the recent panic over economic growth, if the data jumps above the upper limit of the range, the market is likely to fall back into a risk-averse sentiment. (Gold Ten)
