Investors hoisted a for-sale sign over emerging markets assets on Wednesday, with an index of major developing nations’ currencies dropping by the most in a month after the US Federal Reserve raised interest rates and signalled that more are on the way next year.
投资者在周三纷纷挂牌出售新兴市场资产，一项主要发展中国家货币指数在美联储(Fed)加息并预示明年还有更多加息之后，跌到一个月来的最低点。
The JPMorgan emerging markets currency index fell by as much as 1.1 per cent, extending its decline to more than 4 per cent since Donald Trump’s surprise election victory.
摩根大通(JPMorgan)新兴市场货币指数下跌1.1%，自唐纳德.特朗普(Donald Trump)意外获选以来的跌幅已扩大至超过4%。
It is the gauge’s biggest drop in a month, underscoring how higher US rates and the stronger dollar are making EM assets less appealing for investors. The Brazilian real and the Mexican peso dropped 1.1 per cent and 1 per cent respectively. Asian currencies are also expected to log losses when trading opens across the Pacific in a few hours.
这是该指数在一个月以来的最大跌幅，突显了美国利率上升和美元走强使得新兴市场资产对投资者的吸引力大幅下降。巴西雷亚尔和墨西哥比索分别下跌1.1%和1%。几个小时后大洋对岸市场开盘时，亚洲货币预计也将下挫。
EM equities also came under pressure. The MSCI emerging markets index ended the day 1.1 per cent lower at 867.78. Brazil’s Bovespa index dropped 1.8 per cent, while Mexico’s IPC index shed 1.4 per cent.
新兴市场股票也受到压力。MSCI明晟新兴市场指数(MSCI Emerging Markets index)收盘时下跌1.1%，报867.78点。巴西Bovespa指数下跌1.8%，墨西哥IPC指数下跌1.4%。
While the move by Fed officials to raise interest rates was widely expected, the market appeared to have been caught off the hop by the central bank’s interest-rate forecasts. Policymakers are now penciling in three more rate increase in 2017, up from a previous estimate of two.
虽然美联储官员的加息举动已受到广泛预期，但市场似乎被美国央行的利率预测搞得措手不及。政策制定者们现在预计2017年将加息三次，多于此前预计的两次。
