美国生产者价格意外下跌 通胀压力持续缓解

北京，2024 年 6 月 14 日 - 美国劳工统计局周四公布的数据显示，美国 5 月生产者价格指数 (PPI) 环比意外下降 0.2%，创下 10 月以来最大降幅。这进一步表明，美国通胀压力正在持续缓解，为美联储未来降息提供了更多空间。

PPI 大幅下跌 核心 PPI 维持稳定

5 月，美国商品价格下跌 0.8%，创下 2023 年 10 月以来最大跌幅。其中，汽油价格下跌 7.1% 是主要原因。最终需求服务价格则继 4 月上涨 0.6% 后保持不变。

扣除食品和能源价格的核心 PPI 在 5 月保持不变，低于市场预期的 0.3% 升幅。与去年同期相比，核心 PPI 上涨 2.3%，低于预期的 2.4%。

PPI 下降迹象明显 通胀预期有所缓和

PPI 的意外下降是继 5 月消费者价格指数 (CPI) 放缓之后，美国通胀降温的又一迹象。数据显示，5 月 CPI 环比上涨 0.3%，低于市场预期的 0.4%，同比上涨 8.6%，低于 4 月的 8.8%。

通胀压力的缓解使市场对美联储未来降息的预期有所升温。美联储主席鲍威尔此前曾表示，如果通胀数据显示出持续下降趋势，美联储可能会在今年晚些时候开始降息。

经济学家观点：通胀仍处高位 美联储降息步伐谨慎

尽管近期通胀数据有所缓和，但仍处于高位。许多经济学家认为，美联储在降息方面仍将保持谨慎，并可能继续加息以遏制通胀。

摩根大通首席经济学家 Michael Feroli 表示，"PPI 下降是一个积极的迹象，但不足以改变美联储的政策立场。美联储仍将关注通胀数据，并可能在今年晚些时候开始降息。"

富国银行首席经济学家 Jay Horschman 表示，"美联储可能会在 9 月开始降息，但降息步伐将非常缓慢。"

总体而言，美国生产者价格的意外下降表明通胀压力正在持续缓解，但仍处于高位。美联储未来将如何调整货币政策值得关注。

Shanghai, China - June 17, 2024 - A recent surge in investor sentiment towards growth stocks, particularly in the healthcare and technology sectors, has been dubbed the "Kete Valuation" phenomenon, named after the Chinese pharmaceutical company C-Bridge (6160.HK).

Factors Driving the "Kete Valuation"

Several factors are contributing to the "Kete Valuation" trend. Firstly, investors are increasingly seeking out companies that can deliver sustainable growth, particularly in the face of global economic uncertainties.
