Gold Slammed Below $1250 After Fed Fischer 'Dovish' Comments

Confirming just two more rate hikes in 2017 and plenty of uncertainty and fear over productivity growth, a 'dovish' Stanley Fischer sparked an instant reaction in USDJPY (spiked above 111) and Gold (slammed below $1250) as stocks moved to the day's highs and bond yields rose (30Y over 3.00%)...

  • *FISCHER: TWO MORE RATE HIKES SEEMS TO BE ABOUT RIGHT FOR 2017
  • *FISCHER: PRODUCTIVITY GROWTH IS VERY LOW BY HISTORIC STANDARDS
And the reaction... the Gold and USDJPY 'pairs' trade converges...

美國聯儲局副主席費希爾接受CNBC訪問時表示,他認為今年再加息2次將是對的。被問及息口上升趨勢是急速或漸進,他認為兩者風險大致平衡。

費希爾稱,聯儲局公開市場委員會(FOMC)已經在預期裡包括一個小型的財政擴張,對於美國總統特朗普撤回推翻奧巴馬醫保的法案,費希爾表示可能影響其個人的估算,但不會對整體前景有影響。聯儲局將非常密切地留意財政形勢的變化,因為在立法討論過程中,財政政策建議會出現變化,因此聯儲局在財政因素上保持觀望,態度是適宜的。

費希爾在聯儲局的任期將於2018年6月屆滿,他考慮再擔任多一屆聯儲局副主席,但目前毋須急於做決定。
