周二,由于10月通胀数据强于预期,且美联储理事克里斯托弗·沃勒的言论引发对12月大幅加息的担忧,美国国债收益率跳升。
US Treasury yields jumped Tuesday after stronger-than-expected October inflation data and Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller's remarks raised concerns about a larger interest rate hike in December.
基准10年期国债收益率上涨8.8个基点至4.954%,30年期收益率上涨6.5个基点至5.321%。
The benchmark 10-year Treasury yield rose 8.8 basis points to 4.954%, while the 30-year yield increased 6.5 basis points to 5.321%.
对美联储政策预期特别敏感的2年期国债收益率上涨13个基点至4.677%。债券收益率与价格呈反向变动,1个基点等于0.01个百分点。
The yield on the two-year Treasury note, which is particularly sensitive to expectations for Fed policy, climbed 13 basis points to 4.677%. Bond yields move inversely to prices, with one basis point equal to 0.01 percentage point.
根据官方数据,美国10月消费者价格环比上涨0.4%,超过经济学家预期的0.3%。月度涨幅较9月的0.6%有所放缓。
US consumer prices rose 0.4% in October from the previous month, exceeding economists' expectations of a 0.3% increase, according to official data. The monthly increase slowed from September's 0.6% gain.
剔除波动较大的食品和能源价格的核心通胀上涨0.3%,与9月持平,但超过0.2%的预期。
Core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, rose 0.3%, matching September's pace but exceeding the 0.2% forecast.
这些数据发布于沃勒发表言论之后,他表示如果通胀证明大幅强于他预期,可能需要更大幅度的加息。
The figures followed remarks by Waller, who signaled that a larger interest rate increase could be warranted if inflation proved substantially stronger than he expected.
沃勒说:“在这种情况下,我认为应在12月会议上考虑将政策利率上调50个基点。”
"In that case, I believe a 50 basis point hike in the policy rate should be considered at the December meeting," Waller said.
他警告称,在这种情况下将加息幅度限制在25个基点可能会损害央行的公信力。
He warned that limiting the increase to 25 basis points under those circumstances could jeopardize the central bank's credibility.
通胀报告发布前,上周公布的就业数据也强于预期,显示美国10月新增就业16.5万个,是预期值6.5万个的两倍多。
The inflation report also followed stronger-than-expected employment figures released last week, showing that the US economy added 165,000 jobs in October, more than double the forecast of 65,000.
就业市场韧性强劲与物价压力持续的组合,引发对美联储进一步收紧货币政策的担忧,推高了国债收益率。
The combination of resilient hiring and persistent price pressures raised concerns about further monetary tightening by the Fed, pushing Treasury yields higher.
