为什么NASA从下一次SpaceX飞行中剔除了两名宇航员

(SeaPRwire) - 美国国家航空航天局(NASA)周五宣布,将从下一批前往国际空间站的宇航员名单中剔除两人,以便为滞留国际空间站的两位宇航员腾出返回舱位。 NASA 的尼克·黑格和俄罗斯的亚历山大·戈尔布诺夫将于 9 月乘坐 SpaceX 火箭前往轨道实验室。两人将于 2 月与苏妮·威廉姆斯和巴奇·威尔莫尔一起返回。NASA 认为,威廉姆斯和威尔莫尔乘坐他们的波音 Starliner 舱返回地球风险太大,该舱曾出现推进器故障和氦气泄漏问题。 被 SpaceX 航班剔除的宇航员是:NASA 宇航员泽娜·卡德曼和斯蒂芬妮·威尔逊。NASA 表示,她们可能会参加未来的任务。 该航天机构表示,在做出决定时,他们考虑了宇航员的太空飞行经验和其他因素。 在航天飞机退役后,美国依赖俄罗斯将宇航员送往国际空间站,直到 SpaceX 于 2020 年开始运送宇航员。两国一直在交换座位。下个月,NASA 的唐·佩蒂特将乘坐俄罗斯飞船前往国际空间站,而 NASA 的特蕾西·戴森将乘坐俄罗斯飞船返回地球。 十年前,NASA 开始转向私营企业,希望在航天飞机退役后有两只美国公司相互竞争,将宇航员送往太空。 威廉姆斯和威尔莫尔是波音公司的首批宇航员,于 6 月抵达国际空间站,原本计划停留一周。他们的舱室将于下周五前空载返回,目标是降落在新墨西哥州的沙漠中。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

联控(3396.HK)半年收入升16% 发展新质生产力应挑战

香港, 2024年8月30日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) — 据财华社报道,今日,联想控股公布了2024年中期业绩,实现收入2,334亿元(人民币,下同),同比增长16%;净利润增长至28.05亿元;归母净利润2.86亿元,同比有所下降,公司表示,主要由于全球经济形势的复杂性与不确定性持续攀升,令产业运营板块的贡献利润以及产业孵化与投资板块的投资业务受到了波及。整体来看,2024上半年外部环境变化带来的不利影响逐步增多,资本市场也呈现出较大波动:内地创业板指和科创50同步下跌约16%,恒生科技指数低位持续下跌6%,A股和港股的市场流通性呈现明显颓势,中国企业境内外上市数量亦持续收缩,数据显示,今年上半年该数字同比下降62%至82家。即使面对如此挑战,联控于报告期内依然推动了8家企业上市,占近一成。笔者分析,如此境况下,像联控这类大型企业受资本市场波动的影响也往往较大,逆风入市难以及时体现优质资产的显性价值,联控或许也在有意把控这一节奏,以更加从容地应对宏观环境的不确定性。虽然联控上半年归母净利同比有所下滑,但相较其2023年度业绩而言,可以看到明显改善,同时,公司上半年收入录得同比增长,这说明其各项业务依然处于积极推进和发展中,稳健的产业基础也为公司的可持续发展提供了坚实保障。复杂多变的外部环境也为国家推进新质生产力的发展提出了新的要求和挑战。2024年6月,国家发文表示,「新质生产力是创新起主导作用,具有高科技、高效能、高质量特征,符合新发展理念的先进生产力质态,必须继续做好创新这篇大文章,推动新质生产力加快发展。」联控持续响应这一号召,聚焦以科技创新推动产业创新,将发展新质生产力作为公司坚持高质量发展主线的重要着力点。具体来看,公司继续加强技术研发,研发投入累计增长3.4%至73亿元;且旗下联想集团率先推出了全球首款AI PC和多款AI服务器,也意味着标志性重大战略产品取得突破。联控在持续加强人工智能、生物医药、新材料、新能源等前沿布局的同时,还关注新领域的开辟,加快发展生物制造、商业航天等产业,提前开拓量子科技和生命科学等新赛道。据笔者了解,报告期内,联控投资科技项目近40个,而截至目前累计投出国家级专精特新「小巨人」企业120家,处于行业领先水平。以商业航天为例,联控旗下君联资本被投企业银河航天,作为中国领先的卫星互联网解决方案提供商和卫星制造商,为中国巨型低轨通信星座的快速部署提供了技术支撑。此外,联控旗下君联资本、联想之星、联想创投共同投资的图灵量子,持续探索量子计算与经典算力、人工智能的融合发展,协助孕育了新一批新质生产力。而在助推中国制造业智能化转型升级的进程中,联想控股也在持续推动制造业产业链的高质量发展。资料显示,联控体系已支持到90%的「中国制造业500强」企业、1,000多家头部制造型企业以及2,000多家成长型制造企业,旗下基金在制造业总投资超过200亿元,累计推动数十家制造企业上市,打造了约20家制造业单项冠军。同时,根据Gartner最新榜单,联想集团连续三年位列全球前10,是亚太地区唯一上榜的高科技制造企业。而作为全球领先的全栈式AI产品组合与方案服务供应商,联想也在进一步加大人工智能领域的布局和应用推广,累计投资AI企业超250家,构建AI+应用生态圈。笔者认为,联控正渐渐走出调整转型的承压期,公司主动调整业务节奏、谨慎发力稳中求进,在尖端领域的超前布局亦于这一时期获得了稳定持续的积累。凭借其稳健的产业基础和高质量发展的潜能释放,相信公司已逐步回到健康可持续的增长曲线之中。 Copyright 2024 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

马里兰州最高法院命令重新审理“Serial”案件中释放阿德南·赛义德的听证会 Latest News

马里兰州最高法院命令重新审理“Serial”案件中释放阿德南·赛义德的听证会

(SeaPRwire) - 安纳波利斯,马里兰州——马里兰州最高法院周五裁定,2022年释放阿德南·赛义德出狱的庭审违反了受害者家属的合法权利,必须重新进行。这是多年来因热门播客“Serial”而引起全球关注的持续法律纠纷中的最新进展。 这一4比3的裁决是在最高法院去年10月听取了该案论点后大约11个月作出的。自2000年赛义德被判犯有谋杀其高中前女友海·敏·李罪以来,该案一直充满了法律上的曲折和分歧的法院裁决。 法院得出结论,为了纠正被认为对赛义德的不公正,检察官和下级法院“对李的兄弟杨·李犯下了不公正”。法院裁定,李没有得到“尊严、尊重和体贴”的对待,因为他没有得到关于导致赛义德获释的听证会的合理通知。 法院裁定,补救措施是“恢复赛义德先生的定罪,并将案件发回巡回法院进一步审理”。 “这些诉讼将在不同的巡回法院法官面前进行,”法院裁定。 法院还表示,李将得到关于新听证会的合理通知,“足以让李先生有合理的机会亲自出席这样的听证会”,以及让他或他的律师发言。 该案的最新问题将最近的刑事司法改革努力与犯罪受害者及其家属的合法权利相冲突,而他们的声音往往与日益增长的承认和纠正系统性问题的运动相冲突,包括历史性的种族主义、警察不当行为和检察官失误。 由七名法官组成的专家组权衡了犯罪受害者在撤销定罪的听证会中是否有权参与的程度。为此,法院考虑是否要维持2023年下级上诉法院对李家有利的裁决。在法官批准了巴尔的摩检察官撤销定罪的请求一年后,该裁决恢复了赛义德的谋杀罪。 43岁的赛义德一直坚称自己无罪,并且经常表达对李的幸存亲属的关心。这个十几岁的女孩在1999年被发现勒死并埋在一个无名坟墓里。赛义德被判处无期徒刑外加30年。 2022年9月,巴尔的摩的一名法官推翻了赛义德的定罪,因为该市检察官发现了证据中的缺陷,赛义德因此被释放出狱。 然而,在2023年3月,马里兰州上诉法院(该州的中级上诉法院)命令重新审理使赛义德获得自由的听证会,并恢复了他的定罪。该法院表示,受害者家属没有得到充分的通知,无法亲自出席听证会,违反了他们根据州法律被“尊严和尊重”对待的权利。 赛义德的律师埃里卡·苏特辩称,该州履行了其义务,允许杨·李通过视频会议参加听证会。 赛义德对恢复其定罪提出上诉,李家也向该州最高法院提出上诉,声称犯罪受害者应该在撤销定罪的过程中发挥更大的作用。 随着最新一轮上诉在州法院系统中进行,赛义德一直保持自由。 在去年的口头辩论中,他的律师辩称李家的上诉是毫无意义的,因为检察官在赛义德的定罪被撤销后决定不再对他提起诉讼。即使她的兄弟的权利受到侵犯,律师们辩称,他也没有证明这种据称的侵犯是否会改变听证会的结果。 这不是马里兰州最高法院第一次处理赛义德漫长的法律历程。 2019年,该法院以4比3的投票否决了赛义德的新审判请求。2016年,一家下级法院下令重新审判,理由是赛义德的律师克里斯蒂娜·古铁雷斯没有联系证人,并且提供的法律援助无效。古铁雷斯于2004年去世。 2019年11月,美国最高法院拒绝审查马里兰州最高法院的裁决。 最近,巴尔的摩检察官根据一项针对所谓“青少年终身监禁者”的马里兰州法律重新审查了赛义德的档案,因为海·敏·李的尸体被发现时他只有17岁。检察官发现了许多问题,包括替代嫌疑人以及审判中提出的不可靠证据。 检察官没有重新考虑他的判决,而是提出了一项动议,要求完全撤销赛义德的定罪。在收到使用比最初使用的更现代的测试技术进行的 DNA 测试结果后,他们后来选择不重新起诉他。检察官说,从李的鞋子中提取的 DNA 排除了赛义德作为嫌疑人的可能性。 赛义德的案件被记录在“Serial”播客中,该播客于2014年首次亮相,吸引了数百万听众,他们成为了“扶手椅侦探”,因为该节目分析了这个案件,并揭示了一些鲜为人知的证据,并对这个案件提出了新的疑问。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

瑞士公布明年欧洲歌唱大赛举办城市 Latest News

瑞士公布明年欧洲歌唱大赛举办城市

(SeaPRwire) - 日内瓦——主办方周五宣布,瑞士城市巴塞尔将举办明年的欧洲歌唱大赛,时间为 5 月 13 日至 17 日。 这个以德语为主的城市位于莱茵河畔,与法国和德国接壤。它在与日内瓦的竞争中胜出,引发了整个瑞士的热议和期待。 “市议会对这一决定感到高兴,并认为举办世界上最大的音乐比赛是一个绝佳的机会,”巴塞尔市议会在一份声明中表示。“巴塞尔将尽一切努力成为一个优秀的东道主。” 这个阿尔卑斯山脉国家获得了举办这项每年一度的奢华歌舞盛事的权利,该盛事吸引了全球数亿观众。瑞士歌手内莫在 5 月举行的瑞典第 68 届比赛中获胜后,瑞士获得了举办权。 瑞士公共广播公司 SSR-SRG 表示,选择巴塞尔和圣雅各布斯体育馆是基于以下标准:场馆举办活动的适宜性、可持续性和安全问题、提供的资金以及“针对周边活动的创意”。 内莫是自 1988 年以来第一位获胜的瑞士歌手,当时加拿大歌手席琳·迪翁在瑞士国旗代表下参赛。 欧洲歌唱大赛由总部位于日内瓦的欧洲广播联盟每年举办,有数十家广播公司参与。 巴塞尔市议会援引 EBU 的一项研究,该研究发现,今年在瑞典马尔默举办的比赛吸引了全球超过 1.6 亿电视观众和 8000 万 YouTube 用户。它表示,该活动的广告价值估计为 8.05 亿欧元(8.92 亿美元)。 瑞士于 1956 年在南部城市卢加诺举办并赢得了第一届比赛。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

大型银行因低现金清算账户利率面临反弹 Finance

大型银行因低现金清算账户利率面临反弹

(SeaPRwire) - 随着高利率时代开始走向结束,大型银行和经纪公司因其如何处理客户闲置现金而受到越来越多的审查。争议的焦点是现金清扫账户,这是一种机制,旨在将多余的现金在夜间转入计息账户。然而,客户对这些账户提供的低收益越来越不满,导致针对摩根大通 (NYSE:JPM) 和富国银行 (NYSE:WFC) 等主要金融机构的诉讼和监管调查激增。 诉讼和监管调查 最近几周,已有多起针对知名银行和财富管理公司的诉讼,包括Raymond James (NYSE:RJF)、摩根大通等。客户指控这些机构通过支付远低于他们在其他金融产品(如货币市场基金或存款证)中可以获得的利率,在现金清扫账户中低估了他们的收益。 投诉的核心在于现金清扫账户提供的利率与其他地方可获得的更高收益之间的差距。例如,虽然美联储的基准利率在 5.25% 到 5.5% 之间,但许多现金清扫账户提供的利率低至 0.01%,令客户感到沮丧。这导致法律诉讼激增,原告辩称他们被不公平地剥夺了潜在的收益。 此外,来自美国证券交易委员会的监管机构已对富国银行和摩根士丹利 (NYSE:MS) 的现金清扫做法展开调查。这些调查的重点是这些银行是否充分向客户披露了其现金清扫计划的利率和条款。富国银行甚至报告称正在就这些做法进行“解决讨论”,这表明了监管关注的严重性。 现金清扫账户的机制 现金清扫账户最初是作为一种便捷的方式,供银行和经纪人将客户的闲置现金投入使用而开发的。该流程涉及将多余的现金自动转入银行或附属机构提供的货币市场基金或其他更高收益产品。作为回报,客户在其余额上获得预设的利率。但是,通过这些账户赚取的利息往往远低于直接投资于 CD 或货币市场基金所能获得的利息。 对于银行而言,这些清扫计划是有利可图的,因为他们在支付客户相对较低的利率的同时,可以从这些资金中赚取利差或收入。这种动态引发了批评,客户认为银行从他们的现金中获利过多,而提供的回报却微乎其微。 最近的利率调整 为了应对越来越大的压力,一些银行已开始调整其现金清扫利率。例如,摩根士丹利最近将其咨询账户的现金余额超过 250,000 美元的利率从 0.01% 上调至 2%。同样,富国银行在其财富管理部门提高了现金清扫利率,尽管预计这将导致该行净利息收入减少 3.5 亿美元。 尽管进行了这些调整,但根本问题仍然存在:客户认为他们没有因使用自己的资金而获得公平的补偿。金融服务律师 Chip MacDonald 指出,虽然经纪客户获得低于市场利率并不罕见,但缺乏关于这些账户运作方式和客户可选择方案的明确披露,可能会导致法律和监管问题。 大型银行面临的巨大风险 对于大型银行而言,财务和声誉风险很高。两年前,嘉信理财 (NYSE:SCHW) 支付了 1.87 亿美元以解决美国证券交易委员会有关其机器人顾问服务中现金清扫账户的未披露利益冲突和隐藏费用的指控。随着诉讼和监管调查的增加,如果其他银行被发现误导了客户或未能提供充分的披露,他们可能会面临类似的处罚。 结论 针对低现金清扫账户利率的抵制清楚地表明了在高利率时代客户不满情绪的增长。随着诉讼和监管调查的继续展开,大型银行和经纪公司需要重新评估其现金清扫做法,以恢复信任并避免进一步的法律和财务后果。持续的审查提醒了金融行业透明度和公平待遇的重要性。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

英伟达的 AI 支出暗示科技巨头投资回报率参差不齐 Finance

英伟达的 AI 支出暗示科技巨头投资回报率参差不齐

(SeaPRwire) - Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) 一直站在人工智能革命的最前沿,利用了对人工智能相关硬件的旺盛需求。然而,随着 Nvidia 继续从这场繁荣中获益,整个科技巨头领域正在出现一个更广泛的反思,即他们巨额的人工智能支出是否带来了回报。人工智能预期改变世界的潜力与目前的财务成果之间的脱节越来越明显,尤其对于那些不是 Nvidia 的公司来说。 Nvidia 的人工智能增长与科技巨头的挣扎 在 Nvidia 最近的财报电话会议上,首席执行官黄仁勋回答了分析师提出的许多关于人工智能投资分配以及这些支出应该产生的实际回报的问题。虽然 Nvidia 实现了显著增长,其收入增长了 122%,主要得益于人工智能芯片的销售,但其他科技巨头并没有从其人工智能支出中看到同样的明确益处。 对于 Nvidia 来说,人工智能的投资回报率已经显而易见。该公司的先进硬件,尤其是其图形处理单元,对于其他科技公司的人工智能驱动型举措至关重要。这导致 Nvidia 的股价随着对人工智能基础设施的需求增长而飙升。然而,对于其他科技巨头来说,情况并不那么明朗。对人工智能寄予的高期望尚未转化为实质性的利润,导致人们越来越关注巨额资金被投入人工智能项目的可持续性。 人工智能投资的混合信号 人工智能革命正处于一个关键时刻,其潜在的炒作正在接受其财务回报现实的考验。虽然一些分析师将当前阶段视为重新校准而不是低迷,但人们越来越担心,巨额投资是否会带来预期的回报。例如,尽管 Nvidia 表现强劲,但对于这种增长的可持续性越来越持怀疑态度,尤其是在更广泛的科技行业难以从人工智能项目中获得投资回报的情况下。 OpenAI 最近的融资谈判进一步突出了这种怀疑态度,据报道该公司估值超过 1000 亿美元。虽然这一估值表明人们对人工智能的热情依然高涨,但也引发了人们对人工智能技术长期价值的质疑。批评者认为,围绕 OpenAI 等公司产生的财务热潮可能不是人工智能可行性的最可靠指标,尤其是在更广泛的行业正努力将人工智能的潜力转化为实际收入时。 科技巨头对人工智能的承诺 尽管结果喜忧参半,但科技巨头仍然致力于人工智能,整个行业的高管们继续将资源投入到人工智能开发中。这种坚定不移的承诺突出了人们对人工智能变革力量的信念,但它也突出了硬件提供商(如 Nvidia)所看到的直接收益与人工智能软件和应用程序带来的更缓慢、更不确定的回报之间的不匹配。 Nvidia 在人工智能领域中的独特地位既是优势,也可能是潜在的弱点。只要科技公司继续投资人工智能,Nvidia 可能会继续看到对其产品的强劲需求。然而,如果科技巨头开始重新评估其人工智能支出,Nvidia 可能会面临重大挑战。问题仍然是,科技巨头对人工智能进步的无情追求是否会在长期内得到回报,或者是否会导致对人工智能在其整体战略中的作用进行重新评估。 结论:人工智能和 Nvidia 的关键时刻 随着科技行业在这一复杂环境中航行,Nvidia 的人工智能支出及其对公司增长的影响将继续成为投资者关注的焦点。当前的人工智能投资阶段,既充满了乐观,又充满谨慎,可能会导致公司处理人工智能方式发生重大转变。对于 Nvidia 来说,挑战将是如何在人工智能行业整体投资回报率问题变得越来越紧迫的情况下,保持其增长轨迹。 目前,人工智能的炒作仍在推动 Nvidia 的成功,但更广泛的行业可能需要调整其预期。这一时期是投资机会还是更批判性地评估人工智能真正价值的时刻,还有待观察。未来几个季度对于确定 Nvidia 的人工智能驱动型增长是否可持续,或者是否会出现更温和的人工智能支出方式至关重要。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

通胀报告提振乐观情绪,华尔街股市上涨 Finance

通胀报告提振乐观情绪,华尔街股市上涨

(SeaPRwire) - 周五,在公布了一份令人振奋的通胀报告后,股市上涨,该报告证实价格上涨正在降温。标准普尔 500 指数上涨 0.5%,纳斯达克指数上涨 0.7%,道琼斯工业平均指数上涨 160 点,涨幅为 0.4%,延续了前一天创纪录高点的势头。随着通胀继续放缓,投资者情绪受到美联储可能在即将举行的会议上降息的预期提振。 通胀报告证实价格降温 备受关注的通胀报告是美联储密切关注的一个关键指标,它提供了通胀压力正在缓解的证据。美联储首选的通胀衡量指标个人消费支出 (PCE) 价格指数在 7 月仅上涨了 0.1%,使同比涨幅达到 2.6%。这仅略高于美联储 2% 的目标,远低于 2022 年中期的 7.1% 的峰值。 这份报告引发了人们对美联储将很快从其激进的货币紧缩立场转向的乐观情绪。交易员现在越来越押注美联储最早将在 9 月降息。市场预期美联储将在年底前将基准利率下调一个百分点,此举将降低整个经济体的借贷成本,并可能刺激经济进一步增长。 芯片制造商领涨 积极的通胀报告也提振了芯片制造商,这些制造商在周五出现广泛上涨。Marvell Technology (NASDAQ:MRVL) 股价上涨 7.3%,此前该公司公布的季度业绩符合华尔街的营收和盈利预期。该公司的强劲表现反映了对芯片的持续需求,特别是在人工智能和数据中心等领域。 戴尔科技 (NYSE:DELL) 也公布了超出预期的收益,其服务器和网络部门的收入创下历史新高。该公司股价在盘前交易中上涨 4.4%,因为它继续受益于企业对人工智能基础设施的投资。 零售商业绩喜忧参半 并非所有行业都分享了市场的涨幅。Ulta Beauty (NASDAQ:ULTA) 是一家以商场为基础的化妆品零售商,其股价下跌 8.7%,此前该公司公布的销售额和利润未达预期。尽管最近面临挑战,Ulta 仍然是美容行业的重量级企业,尽管它下调了今年剩余时间的预期。 沃伦·巴菲特的伯克希尔·哈撒韦 (NYSE:BRK.B) 最近披露了对 Ulta 的持股,随着该公司在充满挑战的零售环境中航行,可能需要重新评估其立场。 全球市场对美国通胀数据的反应 全球市场对美国通胀数据做出了积极反应,欧洲股指小幅上涨。法国 CAC 40 指数上涨 0.3%,德国 DAX 指数上涨 0.2%,英国 FTSE 100 指数上涨 0.3%。这些波动反映了更广泛的乐观情绪,即美联储可能降息将支持全球经济增长。 在亚洲,日本日经 225 指数上涨 0.7%,收于 38,647.75 点。上涨的部分原因是工业生产数据,该数据显示 7 月份增长了 2.8%,从 6 月份的 4.2% 下降中反弹。然而,东京的消费者价格上涨幅度超预期,8 月份同比上涨 2.6%。通胀的这种上升可能会引起日本央行的注意,日本央行可能会考虑在今年晚些时候或明年初加息。 能源和货币市场 在能源交易中,油价小幅下跌。美国基准原油下跌 17 美分,至每桶 75.74 美元,而国际基准布伦特原油下跌 9 美分,至每桶 78.73 美元。这些小幅下跌反映了供应担忧与经济增长可能放缓之间的平衡。 在货币方面,美元兑日元小幅走强,从 145.02 日元升至 145.37 日元。欧元也小幅上涨,交易价格为 1.1084 美元,高于 1.1082 美元。 结论:美联储降息在即? 最新的通胀报告强化了价格压力正在缓解的论点,为美联储可能降息奠定了基础。随着华尔街继续做出积极反应,尤其是在科技和芯片制造等领域,投资者对市场走势越来越乐观。即将到来的美联储会议将受到密切关注,因为交易员和分析师都在期待央行的下一步行动。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

通货膨胀缓解,美联储考虑降息 Finance

通货膨胀缓解,美联储考虑降息

(SeaPRwire) - 美联储青睐的个人消费支出(PCE)价格指数显示出进一步降温迹象,表明美联储可能很快开始下调其关键利率。美国商务部报告称,7 月份价格仅比 6 月份上涨 0.2%,略高于前一个月 0.1% 的涨幅。同比通货膨胀率稳定在 2.5%,越来越接近美联储 2% 的目标。随着通胀压力缓解,许多人预计美联储的货币政策战略将发生转变。 通货膨胀持续下降表明美联储策略将发生转变 一年多来,美联储一直在通过一系列激进的加息来对抗高通胀。然而,最近的数据表明,这些努力可能正在奏效,因为数据反映出通货膨胀持续下降。目前的通货膨胀率为 2.5%,远低于 2022 年 6 月 7.1% 的峰值,当时是 40 年来的最高水平。 核心通货膨胀率(不包括波动性较大的食品和能源价格)也显示出稳定的迹象。从 6 月到 7 月,核心通货膨胀率上涨了 0.2%,与前一个月相同,同比保持在 2.6%。经济学家通常关注核心通货膨胀率,因为它能更清晰地反映潜在的通货膨胀趋势。 美联储主席杰罗姆·鲍威尔最近谈到了 2021 年开始的通货膨胀激增,将其归因于疫情造成的供应减少和联邦刺激支票推动的消费者需求增加。随着通货膨胀现在显示出缓和的迹象,鲍威尔表示美联储可能很快从其抗通胀立场转向更加宽松的政策。 降息即将到来:预期 通货膨胀降温引发了人们的猜测,即美联储可能在 9 月 17 日至 18 日举行的下次会议上,将利率降至四年多以来的首次。美联储的基准利率目前为 5.3%,经济学家普遍预计至少会下调 25 个基点。降低利率将降低消费者和企业的借贷成本,有可能提振经济。 Nationwide 的高级经济学家本·艾尔斯在最近的一份研究报告中指出,“美联储抗通胀斗争的结束已经可以预见”。他补充说,通货膨胀进一步降温可能会让美联储在未来几个月内更积极地降息,具体取决于经济数据的变化。 消费者支出依然强劲 尽管通货膨胀下降,但消费者支出仍然推动着美国经济向前发展。报告显示,7 月份美国人比 6 月份增加了 0.5% 的支出,高于前一个月 0.3% 的增长。这种强劲的消费者活动是经济的积极信号,表明家庭仍然愿意支出,即使通货膨胀有所降温。 然而,报告还强调了储蓄率下降,降至 2.9%,为疫情初期以来的最低水平。储蓄率下降表明,消费者可能需要在不久的将来减少支出,这可能会减缓经济增长。 为什么美联储偏爱 PCE 指数 美联储更青睐 PCE 价格指数而不是更知名的消费者价格指数 (CPI),因为 PCE 考虑了价格上涨时消费者行为的变化。例如,它涵盖了消费者从价格较高的全国品牌转向价格更实惠的商店品牌的案例。此外,PCE 指数通常显示的通货膨胀率低于 CPI,部分原因是它对租金的权重较低,而租金一直是通货膨胀的主要推动力。 通货膨胀降温和经济强劲增长为美联储在考虑下一步行动时提供了更有利的背景。周四,政府将 4 月至 6 月季度的增长估计修正为年化 3%,高于此前公布的 2.8%。这种上调表明,尽管美联储努力抑制通货膨胀,但经济仍具有韧性。 结论:为美联储的下一步行动做准备 随着通货膨胀显示出明显缓解的迹象,美联储可能会将重点转向支持经济增长。随着美联储准备其即将召开的会议,投资者和消费者都在密切关注美联储是否会开始降息。通胀压力的缓解,加上强劲的消费者支出,表明美国经济正处于更加稳定的基础之上,为近期可能出现的降息铺平了道路。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
