【经济学家:美国服务业PMI令人担忧】金十数据5月5日讯,标普全球市场情报首席商业经济学家克里斯·威廉姆森表示:“虽然关税意味着制造业占据了新闻的主导地位,但规模更大的美国服务业经济正在发展出一个令人担忧的背景,在商业信心暴跌的情况下,4月份商业活动和招聘接近停滞。面向企业和消费者的服务提供商,尤其是金融服务公司,都在报告增长前景明显减弱,理由是最近宣布的关税和正在进行的联邦开支削减加剧了经济前景的不确定性。一个关键的疲软领域是服务出口的下滑,目前正以2022年以来从未见过的速度下降,但据报道,随着信心下滑,国内需求也在减弱。关税导致的进口商品价格上涨也推高了服务业企业的成本,导致价格上涨,尤其是在餐馆和酒店等面向消费者的行业。由此导致的结果是服务业增长停滞、通胀上升或滞胀的风险加大。”
