美國第二季GDP比市場預期做差

美國第二季國內生產總值(GDP) 初值年化季比增長 6.5%,遠低於市場預測的 8.5%,前值為增長6.3%。數據或反映通脹飆升、供應鏈中斷,以及勞工短缺等因素,正抑制當地經濟增長。期內,個人消費開支初值按年增加 11.8%,高於市場預期及前季的分別 10.5%及 11.4%。至於個人消費支出核心 PCE 物價指數初值按年則為上升 6.1%,符合市場預期,但增幅遠高於前季修正後的 2.7%。

金價因美國經濟做差而上升

周五(7月30日)亞市早盤,美元指數繼續承壓,現報91.90附近。周四公布的美國GDP數據不及預期,這令美元承受顯著下行壓力,這推動金價大幅攀升,令到黃金保持堅挺,金價交投在1830美元/盎司上方,此前美聯儲的鴿派表態已經對美元多頭造成傷害。周五,投資者將迎來美聯儲(FED)最青睞的通脹指標——PCE物價指數,預計該數據表現會對市場走勢產生重要影響。美國聯邦公開市場委員會(FOMC)在周三結束的政策會議上決定將其關鍵利率維持在近零水平。美聯儲表示美國經濟及就業市場續強,重申通脹上升只是暫時性因素,持續朝向縮減購債計劃邁進。不過,美聯儲強調,政策制定者需要更多的經濟改善,才能明確采取緊縮措施。
