据外媒7月5日消息,近来布伦特原油价格的上涨应会帮助抑制石油领域商业投资的下降,布伦特原油价格已经从第一季度每桶34美元上涨至第二季度每桶46美元。然而汇丰银行的两位分析师称,英国公投脱欧给国际贸易增长和全球GDP增长前景带来不确定性。他们表示:“英国脱欧的程序可能涉及到长期的谈判,这可能抑制整个欧洲的商业投资和贸易;而这可能导致美元进一步升值,通过限制出口领域的商业投资增长对美国产生连锁影响。”

Brexit Adds Uncertainty to Oil Investments, Says HSBC
[Dow Jones] The recent rise in Brent prices--from $34 a barrel in the first quarter to $46 a barrel in the second quarter--should help stem the decline in business investment in oil sector. However, the Brexit vote to pull U.K. out of the European unio "creates uncertainty about the outlook for growth in international trade and global GDP growth," two analysts at HSBC say. "The process of the U.K. leaving the EU will probably involve a long period of negotiation that could depress business investment and trade throughout Europe. This could lead to further U.S. dollar appreciation and have knock-on effects in the U.S. by restraining the growth of business investment in export-oriented sectors of the economy," they say.
