5月1日（路透社）——克利夫兰联邦储备银行行长贝丝·哈马克周五表示，她本周反对美联储保留宽松政策倾向，原因是经济和通胀前景存在不确定性。
“2026年经济前景的不确定性有所上升，这让货币政策的未来路径更加难以预判，”哈马克在一份声明中说道。

这位官员表示，她周三投票反对美联储维持利率目标区间在3.5%至3.75%不变的政策声明，因为该声明保留了“暂停而非结束宽松周期”的措辞。“鉴于当前的经济前景，我认为这种明确的宽松倾向已不再适宜。”

哈马克表示，当前通胀存在上行风险，就业市场则存在下行风险。她补充称，通胀压力“广泛存在”，且“油价上涨带来了额外的通胀压力”。
哈马克的异议发生在一场异常激烈的联邦公开市场委员会投票期间，共有四名官员背离了共识立场。
哈马克以及明尼阿波利斯和达拉斯联邦储备银行的行长们，均投票反对FOMC声明，因其继续保留了暗示美联储下次政策举措将是降息的措辞。另有一位官员——美联储理事斯蒂芬·米兰——投下反对票，支持降息。

May 1 (Reuters) – Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland President Beth Hammack said Friday she dissented against the central bank holding on to an easing bias this week due to uncertainty around the economic and inflation outlooks.
“Uncertainty around the economic outlook has increased in 2026 and makes the future path for monetary policy more uncertain,” Hammack said in a statement.

The official said she voted against the Fed’s policy statement on Wednesday that left the interest rate target range unchanged at between 3.5% and 3.75% because it retained language that pointed to “a pause rather than an end to the easing cycle. I see this clear easing bias as no longer appropriate given the outlook.”

Hammack said there are now upside risks to inflation and downside risks to the job market. She added inflation pressures are “broad based” and “and rising oil prices present an additional source of inflationary pressure.”
Hammack’s dissent took place amid an unusually fractious Federal Open Market Committee vote that saw four officials break from the consensus.
Hammack, as well as the leaders of the Minneapolis and Dallas Fed banks, voted against the FOMC statement due to its continued inclusion of language that suggested that the next policy move by the central bank would be an easing. One official, Fed Governor Stephen Miran, dissented in favor of a rate cut.
