从2002年至2008年,美元经历了长达六年的大幅贬值。美联储所编制广义美元指数(美元兑所有贸易伙伴货币的贸易加权名义指数)变化幅度相对较小,但走势相似,在2002年至2008年期间累积下跌27%,2011年二次探底更是跌至更低的93.7的水平,现已反弹至113.4,反弹幅度21%,亦收复过半失地。在今年举行的世界经济论坛,美国财长重申强美元对美国和全球均有利,这是本世纪以来不多见的强美元现实和美国政府强美元政策表述一致的情况。 From 2002 to 2008, the dollar experienced a sharp devaluation of up to six years. The Fed’s generalized dollar index, the trade-weighted nominal index of the dollar against all trading partners, changed marginally less but with similar trends, with a cumulative decline of 27% from 2002 to 2008 and a dip in 2011 To the lower level of 93.7, has rebounded to 113.4, rebound rate of 21%, also recovered more than half lost ground. At this year’s World Economic Forum, the U.S. finance ministers reiterated that the strong U.S. dollar is favorable to both the United States and the rest of the world. This is a situation where the rare U.S. realistic reality of this century is consistent with the U.S. government’s strong U.S. dollar policy.
