FOMC會議紀錄顯示聯準會決定放緩2025年降息步伐

聯準會會議紀要稱，最近一次會議的工作人員預測經濟狀況將保持「穩健」。

The recently released Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) minutes have revealed that Federal Reserve officials are planning to slow down the pace of rate cuts in 2025.

近期公佈的聯邦公開市場委員會(FOMC)會議紀錄顯示，聯準會官員計劃放緩2025年降息。

According to the minutes, the staff projection at the latest meeting indicated that economic conditions were expected to remain "solid." However, there was also some uncertainty regarding potential changes to regulatory policies and other factors, such as possible trade disputes, and the inflationary impact of such policies remained unclear.

根據會議記錄，最近一次會議的工作人員預測表明，經濟狀況預計將保持「穩健」。然而，監管政策和其他因素的潛在變化也存在一些不確定性，例如可能的貿易爭端，且此類政策的通膨影響仍不清楚。

The inflation forecast for the previous year ended up being slightly higher, and core inflation did not decline as much as expected in 2024, the minutes showed. That said, Fed officials still expected inflation to keep moving toward the much-coveted 2% target, although it could take longer to reach the aforementioned target than initially anticipated.

會議紀錄顯示，前一年的通膨預測最終略高，2024 年核心通膨下降幅度並未達到預期。儘管如此，聯準會官員仍預計通膨將繼續朝著夢寐以求的 2% 目標邁進，儘管達到上述目標可能需要比最初預期更長的時間。

The minutes also showed that U.S. economic activity remained robust, with unemployment remaining at rather low levels.

會議紀錄也顯示，美國經濟活動依然強勁，失業率仍維持在相當低的水平。

As reported by U.Today, the Federal Reserve implemented a "hawkish" 25-basis-point rate cut in December. The Fed signaled that it was inclined to scale back easing in 2025, which took a toll on risk assets such as Bitcoin.

根據《今日美國》報道，聯準會在 12 月實施了「鷹派」降息 25 個基點。聯準會暗示傾向於在 2025 年縮減寬鬆政策，這對比特幣等風險資產造成了損失。

After recovering back above the $100,000 level, the price of Bitcoin took a significant hit on Tuesday as key U.S. economic data indicated that inflation might continue to persist.

在恢復至 10 萬美元上方後，比特幣價格週二遭受重大打擊，因為美國關鍵經濟數據表明通膨可能繼續持續下去。

Bitcoin is currently changing hands at $94,129, according to CoinGecko data.

根據 CoinGecko 的數據，比特幣目前的易手價格為 94,129 美元。

As reported by U.Today, Bloomberg's Mike McGlone recently opined that Bitcoin had emerged as the leading indicator for risk assets due to its high correlation with stocks.

根據《今日美國》報道，彭博社的 Mike McGlone 最近認為，由於比特幣與股票的高度相關性，它已成為風險資產的領先指標。
