周五,英镑跌至1.29美元以下,受到特朗普总统全面关税政策后全球经济风险上升的担忧的压力。尽管英国面临相对较低的10%关税,但投资者担心,对中国和欧元区等其他经济体征收更高的关税可能会导致产品倾销,削弱英国的出口竞争力。在关税宣布之前,英国预算责任办公室警告称,此类贸易政策可能会使经济收缩高达1%,并削弱政府的财政缓冲。在国内,本月雇主国民保险费上调生效后,通胀担忧加剧,给企业带来了压力。这些事态发展强化了人们对英格兰银行将谨慎推行货币宽松政策的预期。尽管英国的地位比一些美国贸易伙伴相对较强,但它仍然容易受到全球贸易紧张局势的更广泛影响。
The British pound dropped below $1.29 on Friday, pressured by concerns over rising global economic risks following President Trump’s sweeping tariff policy. Although the UK faced a relatively lower 10% tariff rate, investors worry that higher duties on other economies like China and the Eurozone could lead to product dumping, undermining UK export competitiveness. Ahead of the tariff announcement, the UK’s Office for Budget Responsibility warned that such trade policies could shrink the economy by up to 1% and erode the government’s fiscal buffer. Domestically, inflation fears are mounting after a rise in employer National Insurance contributions took effect this month, adding pressure on businesses. These developments are reinforcing expectations that the Bank of England will proceed cautiously with monetary easing. Despite being in a relatively stronger position than some US trading partners, the UK remains vulnerable to the broader impact of global trade tensions.
