歐洲央行五年首度降息!鷹派立場鬆動,市場前景如何?
歐洲央行(ECB)宣佈降息25個基點至3.75%,為近五年來首次。本文深入分析降息背後的原因、總裁拉加德的鷹派警告,以及對全球投資者的潛在影響。
{歐洲央行於2025年12月22日宣布,將其主要存款利率下調{25個基點,從創紀錄的{4%降至{3.75%。此舉為近五年來的首次降息,標誌著其貨幣政策的重大轉向。儘管通膨已顯著降溫,但央行對未來的寬鬆步伐仍保持謹慎,強調決策將依賴數據而行。
降息決策:通膨降溫與經濟考量
本次降息的主要理據是歐元區通膨壓力持續緩解,逐步接近央行設定的{2%目標。歐洲央行在聲明中表示,對通膨前景的信心有所增強,過去的緊縮政策已成功抑制需求。與此同時,歐元區經濟增長乏力,降息亦有助於降低借貸成本,為經濟注入活力。消息公布後,歐洲股市普遍上揚,歐元兌美元匯率則小幅走軟。
拉加德的弦外之音:抗通膨尚未成功
然而,央行總裁{拉加德在記者會上態度審慎,她明確表示「我們並未預先承諾任何特定的利率路徑」。她強調,儘管抗通膨取得進展,但勝利尚未到來,特別是國內物價壓力依然強勁,薪資增長仍是潛在的風險因素。這番言論旨在管理市場對快速連續降息的過度預期。
此次降息更像是一次「保險式」操作,而非寬鬆週期的全面開啟。歐洲央行在抗通膨與穩增長間尋求微妙平衡,未來政策路徑充滿不確定性。投資者需警惕市場對後續降息的過度預期,並密切關注核心通膨與薪資數據的變化。
