欧洲央行将在12月连续第三次加息75个基点，以回应管委会中更为鹰派的声音。我们认为，欧洲央行将推迟作出开始减持巨额债券决定的日期，或将日期定在2023年第二季度末或第三季度初，以回应管委会中较为鸽派的声音。
此外，欧洲央行将为减持债券或量化紧缩制定广泛的指引，包括设定每月到期债券数额上限，最初设定为每月100亿至200亿欧元。
尽管欧洲央行仍处于依据数据的模式，但似乎有可能进一步加息，而且幅度可能会放缓。

LANGUAGE NOTES
• Midterm Students at universities in the United States often take exams midsemester, 
around October or March of every year. These exams are called midterms. Exams at the 
end of the semester are called finals or final exams and are usually in May.
• Gonna is a colloquial form of “I’m going to.” Other similar constructions include 
“wanna” [want to] or “hafta” [have to]. These are examples of transcriptions of spoken 
English and should not be used in a formal context. Some of these examples are now 
seen in text messages as a means of shortening sentences.
• Awesome: is a colloquial way of saying “excellent,” “cool,” “great.” Last night’s rock 
concert was awesome
