2011美国股市11大疯狂时刻

美国维持超低利率

    日期：2011年8月9日

    道琼斯指数：上涨430点，涨幅4%

    标准普尔降低美国信用评级之后，股票市场陷入低迷，但美联储（Federal Reserve）当天宣布，为刺激经济反弹，“超低”利率将维持到2013年，这使投资者看到了曙光。道琼斯指数大举收复失地。

    然而，不幸地是，投资者的热情并未持续太久。

Interest rates remain low

    Date: August 9, 2011

    Dow: up 430, or 4%

    The market looked pretty glum following S&P's downgrade, but the Federal Reserve managed to save the day when it announced it will keep interest rates "exceptionally low" through 2013 in an effort to help the economy bounce back. The Dow recovered much of its losses from the previous day.

    Unfortunately, the enthusiasm wouldn't last.
