不断上升的粮食价格在过去一年已经引发了全球政治经济动荡，而现在，它们终于发出了首批试探性的企稳信号。

随着房地产和信贷危机双双到来，美联储(Fed)正在重新考虑其处理资产价格泡沫的方式。未来，这家美国央行或将使用额外的调控措施，甚至不惜动用利率，来抵御资产价格的不合理上涨。
The US Federal Reserve is reconsidering the way it deals with asset price bubbles in the wake of the housing and credit bust in a move which could see the central bank using extra regulation – or even interest rates – to fight unjustified increases.
美联储高层官员正在重新审视艾伦 格林斯潘(Alan Greenspan)的教条。格林斯潘认为，央行不应尝试刺破资产泡沫，而应注重泡沫破裂之后的补救措施，以降低损失程度。
Top officials are re-examining the Alan Greenspan doctrine that central banks should not try to tackle asset bubbles and should focus on mitigating the fallout when they burst.

决策者对美元最近的反弹表示欢迎，昨日盘中，美元兑欧元汇率一度升至6周高点。一位美国高层官员表示，他们担心，市场目前过于关注美国短期经济疲软和市场压力，对美欧的中期前景关注不够。
