CITIC Securities: Inflation upward risk squeezes the Fed's space for interest rate cuts

According to Jinshi News, CITIC Securities pointed out that the U.S. non-farm payroll data showed that 178,000 new non-farm jobs were added in March, exceeding expectations, partly driven by the repair of short-term disturbances. Although the structure of employment growth has improved compared to February, many industries still show low growth. If the U.S.-Iran conflict continues, it is expected to put pressure on the global supply chain, and U.S. employment may still face pressure in the future. Currently, the upward risk of inflation is squeezing the Federal Reserve's space for interest rate cuts.
