从2007年上半年开始的美国次按危机,引起了国际金融市场一次又一次震荡,也使美国经济面临前所未有的困难。有人说,美国次按危机可能是引起美国经济衰退的诱因。尽管这样的说法有点言过其实,但是美国次按危机的严重性,无论是对美国本土经济来说,还是对国际金融市场来说,其所造成的严重的负面影响是谁也不可低估的事情。 The U.S. subprime crisis, which started in the first half of 2007, has caused the international financial market to oscillate over and over again. It has also exposed the U.S. economy to unprecedented difficulties. Some people say that the U.S. subprime crisis may be the trigger for the U.S. recession. Although this is a bit exaggerated, the seriousness of the U.S. sub-crisis can not be underestimated whether it is for the U.S. domestic economy or for the international financial markets.
