英镑徘徊在1.33美元附近,市场等待英格兰银行即将出台的政策决定,普遍预计将降息25个基点至4.25%。投资者也在关注央行最新的经济预测,这可能预示着是否有可能进一步降息。一些分析人士认为,英国央行可能倾向于采取更激进的宽松政策,以应对全球风险,尤其是与特朗普总统的新关税有关的风险,这加剧了人们对全球经济放缓的担忧。然而,与中国或欧盟等地区相比,英国被认为相对不受美国关税的影响,因为2024年美国对英国的商品顺差为120亿美元。与此同时,预计美联储将在周三保持利率稳定。在贸易方面,美中关系仍存在不确定性。特朗普表示,中国可能希望达成协议,但没有给出时间表,而北京表示,如果美国首先取消关税,愿意进行谈判。
The British pound hovered near $1.33 as markets awaited the Bank of England's upcoming policy decision, with a 25 basis point rate cut to 4.25% widely anticipated. Investors are also watching for the Bank's updated economic forecasts, which could signal whether further cuts are likely. Some analysts believe the BoE may lean toward a more aggressive easing path in response to global risks, especially those linked to President Trump's new tariffs, which have heightened fears of a global slowdown. Nevertheless, the UK is seen as relatively shielded from US tariffs compared to regions like China or the EU, as the US ran a $12 billion goods surplus with Britain in 2024. Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve is expected to hold rates steady on Wednesday. On the trade front, uncertainty persists around US-China relations. Trump said China may want a deal but gave no timeline, while Beijing indicated willingness to talk if the US removes tariffs first.
