【瑞士央行批驳特朗普关税:美国进口太多黄金 扭曲了贸易顺差】金十数据4月8日讯,周二,瑞士央行发表的一篇论文称,在分析两国之间的贸易关系时,不应将瑞士对美国的巨额黄金出口考虑在内。不到一周前,白宫宣布对从瑞士进口的商品征收32%的关税,这远远超过了美国对欧盟施加的20%税率,瑞士政府称这是“不可理解的”。瑞士央行驻苏黎世经济学家劳伦斯•威特写道:“全球黄金需求的避险动机扭曲了瑞士对外部门的关键指标。”“指标变化需要仔细解读,它们反映的是全球因素,而不是瑞士经济基本面的变化。”Wicht表示,去年12月至今年2月,瑞士对美国的黄金销量“飙升了414吨”。她指出,剔除黄金的基础数据使瑞士对美国的贸易顺差显得较小。在特朗普上周宣布全球关税之前,对黄金可能受到影响的担忧促使黄金大量进口到美国。由于伦敦和纽约黄金的不同规格,黄金需要在精炼中心瑞士重铸,意味着该国成为黄金中转站。
