凭什么要加拿大央行行长承担房价高涨的责任? 这一轮房价高涨大家可以归罪于低利率, 可上一轮多伦多的房价泡沫可是伴随着12%的高利率,是否也要怪罪于央行行长?
同样的利率, 除了温多以外, 其他城市房价相当温和。 譬如在阿省, 大学毕业生3~4年的工资即刻买一套2000尺的豪斯。 这也说明房价泡沫并非是低利率的直接产物。
央行行长并非政治家, 手中只有利率调整的工具,且其主要职责是在控制通货膨胀的前提下,尽可能地刺激经济的发展。 找央行行长做房价泡沫的替罪羊是找错了对象。
这学期正好学Macroeconomics, 据我所学知识来看,我很赞同你的观点。
The Bank of Canada has two approaches to implement monetary policy: targeting the money supply and interest rate. It can only choose one of those two approaches, not both, at one time. The best approach for the Bank to control the money supply is to target interest rate because there are uncertainties about the equilibrium interest rate if the Bank targets the money supply.
Bank of Canada's goal is to maintain the core inflation rate within 2%. If the inflation rate is too high, the Bank raise up the overnight interest rate to contract the economy; If too low, lower down interest rate to expand the economy. When interest is low, there is an outflow of capital to other countries, which causes Canadian dollar to depreciate, Canadian goods and services seem cheaper to international buyers, thus increases exports. If Bank of Canada raises up overnight interest rate, there will be a capital inflow, which causes an appreciation of Canadian dollar, Canadian goods and services seem more expensive, thus causes an decrease in exports. Consequently, the total output(Real GDP) decreases, and the economy contracts.
不好意思,在国内不是学经济的,所以呢有知道怎么样译成经济类的文章。
