纽约，5月14日（路透社）——纽约联邦储备银行行长约翰·威廉姆斯周四表示，鉴于中东战争带来的不确定性，美联储目前无需考虑调整利率政策。
这位官员在纽约表示，当前货币政策处于“合适状态”。

这位美联储官员在商业经济学家会议的一场活动上发表了上述讲话，其内容大体上重申了近期一系列讲话中的观点。
他表示，维持通胀预期稳定至关重要。尽管短期通胀预期上升并不令人意外，但长期通胀预期一直保持稳定，这是一件好事。
威廉姆斯称，他认为关税对通胀的大部分影响已经显现，但他正密切关注价格压力的发展态势。
在通胀预期企稳且就业市场未推高价格压力的情况下，“我们尚未看到……异常的第二轮效应或持续性影响。但我们必须持续密切关注，”这位官员说道。

威廉姆斯还表示，股市的强势并不出人意料，这符合投资者对经济前景的看法。
“市场对未来更高的生产率增长抱有乐观预期，这在一定程度上源于人工智能等技术，”威廉姆斯说道。考虑到人们对经济未来抱有多么“乐观”的态度，“股市处于高位并不令人意外”。
目前投资者预计，在未来几个月内，当前处于3.5%至3.75%区间的联邦基金目标利率将维持不变。
中东战争导致价格压力飙升，但鉴于冲突尚未解决，目前尚不清楚这些压力将持续多久。

NEW YORK, May 14 (Reuters) – Federal Reserve Bank of New York President John Williams said on Thursday he does not see a need right now for the central bank to weigh any change in interest rate policy amid the uncertainty created by the Middle East war.
Monetary policy is in a “good place” right now, the official said in New York.

“I don’t see there’s any reason at all to raise rates right now or lower rates right now,” Williams said.

The central banker spoke before a gathering held by the Conference of Business Economists and largely reiterated comments made in a series of recent remarks.
He said keeping inflation expectations steady is important and while it is not surprising short-term expectations have risen, longer-term projections have been stable, which is a good thing.
Williams said he believed much of the impact on inflation from tariffs had already happened, but he was watching to see how price pressures develop.
With inflation expectations holding in and the job market not pushing price pressures up, “we’re not seeing…unusual second-round effects or persistent effects. But we just have to keep watching,” the official said.

Williams also said the strength of the stock market was not a surprise given what investors think about the economy’s outlook.
“There is optimism about higher productivity growth going forward, partly AI and other things,” Williams said. “It’s not surprising that the stock market’s high” given how “bullish” people are about the future of the economy.
Investors currently expect no change in what is now a federal funds target rate range of between 3.5% and 3.75% over coming months.
The Middle East war has caused price pressures to spike, but it is unclear how long those pressures will persist given the unresolved nature of the conflict.
