聯邦公開市場委員會(FOMC)已正式在華盛頓特區的埃克爾斯大樓(Eccles Building)展開為期兩天的政策會議。
The Federal Open Market Committee, or FOMC, has officially begun its two-day policy meeting at the Eccles Building in Washington, D.C.
身為負責美國貨幣政策的核心機構,該委員會肩負著雙重使命(ㄉㄨㄢˊ ㄇㄧㄥˋ):確保充分就業並維持物價穩定。
As the primary body responsible for U.S. monetary policy, the committee is tasked with fulfilling a dual mandate: ensuring maximum employment and maintaining price stability.
在這兩天內,12名投票委員將分析包含通貨膨脹趨勢與就業數據在內的經濟資訊,以決定聯邦基金利率。
Throughout these two days, 12 voting members will analyze economic data, including inflation trends and employment figures, to decide on the federal funds rate.
會議結束後,聯準會將發布一份正式聲明,隨後由聯準會主席召開記者會。
Once the meeting concludes, the Fed will issue a formal statement, followed by a press conference led by the Fed Chair.
全球金融市場均密切關注這些事件,因為這能提供關於中央銀行對經濟展望的關鍵洞見(ㄉㄨㄥˋ ㄐㄧㄢˋ)。
Financial markets worldwide watch these events closely, as they provide critical insights into the central bank's outlook on the economy.
分析師特別關注聯準會將傾向採取「鷹派(ㄧㄥ ㄆㄞˋ)」立場以抑制通膨,還是採取「鴿派(ㄍㄜ ㄆㄞˋ)」作法以刺激經濟成長。
Analysts specifically look for clues about whether the Fed will lean towards a "hawkish" stance to curb inflation or a "dovish" approach to stimulate growth.
