息口

其实我们的通胀率急剧下降；但息口仍维持在高水平。

Inflation has declined rapidly while interest rate remains high .

息口敏感的地产股亦表现疲弱。

Interest rate sensitive property counters were also weak .

一旦息口呈现见顶迹象，将会极有利于美股。

Any sign that interest rates have peaked will likely be very positive for US equities .

息口忧虑重燃压抑投资信心，上周华尔街低收。

Wall Street ended a holiday-shortened week lower as interest rate concerns returned to upset investor confidence .

但美国国内的焦点却集中于第二季公司业绩报告和息口前景。

Domestically , however , the focus was on second-quarter corporate earnings reports and the outlook for interest rates .

息口甚可能在该水平见顶，但主要仍系于经济数据，包括本周发表的第二季本地生产总值数据，投资者与联储局都会密切留意任何增长偏软的迹象。

This could well be the peak , but much depends on economic data , including this week 's key second-quarter GDP data which investors and the Fed will be watching closely for any signs of weakness .
