美聯(lián)儲主席鮑威爾：美國經(jīng)濟有可能陷入衰退

When asked whether raising interest rates too much and too fast could tip the economy into a recession on Wednesday, US Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said it's a possibility. "It's not our intended outcome at all, but it's certainly a possibility."

6月22日，當被議員問及加息過多、過快是否可能導致經(jīng)濟衰退時，鮑威爾表示，“這不是美聯(lián)儲想要的結(jié)果，但確實有這種可能性”。

With inflation well above the Fed's longer-term goal of 2 percent and an extremely tight labor market, the Fed raised the target range for the federal funds rate at each of the past three meetings.
由于通脹率遠高于2%的長期目標，且勞動力市場嚴重供不應求，美聯(lián)儲在過去三次貨幣政策例會上都進行了加息。

Last week, the Fed raised rates by 75 basis points, marking the sharpest rate hike since 1994.
上周美聯(lián)儲宣布加息75個基點，為1994年以來單次最大幅度的加息。
