特朗普威胁若美联储不降息将停止与贸易顺差国的贸易往来

美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周五表示，除非美联储降息，否则他将停止与美国存在贸易逆差的国家进行贸易。此前公布的8月就业报告好于预期，他在一篇长篇社交媒体帖文中提出了这一要求。“过高的利率使美国处于极不公平的劣势，我不会允许这种情况发生！”特朗普写道，并要求美联储“降息，否则我将停止与我们存在逆差的国家进行贸易”。
特朗普辩称，禁运可能“比关税更有效”，并呼吁“拥有出色新领导人的美联储理事会”采取行动。总统向央行施压并非新鲜事，但以贸易禁运相威胁标志着对全球经济造成干扰的新程度；总统很可能拥有付诸实施的法律权力。强劲的就业数据可能会为美联储在9月15日开始的政策会议上维持或上调利率提供更多依据，这可能引发白宫与央行之间的冲突。
