Guide - Tradução em português

Daniel

I took the liberty of googling your extract and found it on a Bloomberg's article. Then I also googled parts of it, tested other possibilities, and found other results like "xxx guided interbank interest rates higher".

- is the "higher" in this sentence related to "guided"?
I read many definitions of "guide" and could find nothing that would fit here...

I also researched about the latest news about Chinese economy, in Portuguese, and found "O banco central da China elevou a taxa de juros de seus títulos de três meses pela primeira vez desde agosto" (Folha de SP), "O banco central da China inesperadamente elevou hoje o juro de referência no mercado interbancário pela primeira vez em quase cinco meses" (Estadão), "o Banco Central da China subiu a taxa interbancária de suas operações de três meses" (Valor).
Ok, it makes sense, but... Why "GUIDED" ? lol


- "three-month bill yields" = notas/títulos de três meses (?). "bill yields" é uma coisa só ou o "yields" tem outro significado?

In short, I didn't help you and complicated even more. Sorry!

Flávia

Tome essa expressão como um conjunto: "guided three-month bill yields". Yields (retornos) é a palavra-chave.

"Guided" aqui provavelmente tem o sentido de "administrado", ou "managed". Quer dizer, o banco provavelmente faz uma determinação do valor da taxa, e utiliza ferramentas de mercado para manter a taxa naquele nível.

Assim como o COPOM determina a taxa Selic. It's a "guided" rate of interest.

Faz sentido?

Faz sentido para o "guide", mas não consigo encaixar "retornos" na tradução (por isso tinha pensado na possibilidade de "bill yields" sendo uma coisa só).

Hi guys! I did a fast research about yields on NY Times answer.com and found it:

NYT Guide to Essential Knowledge

yield

percentage rate of return paid on a stock in the form of dividends, or the effective rate of interest paid on a bond or note.

I hope it can help a little about the question.

China’s central bank last week guided three-month bill yields higher for the first time since August

O banco central chinês a semana passada (encaminhou para cima) (aumentou) pela primeira vez a taxa dos bonds de tres meses.

Desculpe, sem a devida atenção, pensei em guided como modificador e não, simplesmente, como o verbo da oração. Todos essas taxas de bonds (bills) de curto prazo são determinadas (porque podem) pelo governo que as emite. (Só o mercado "sabe" ---consegue---fixar taxas de longo prazo...) "Guided" is just a fancy way of saying they raised the rate.

What about the antonym? Instead of saying "decreased" or "reduced", would it be possible to guide the rates lower?

Yes, I would think so. I`m no financial expert, but at a simple level I understand that governments seek to move short-term interest rates up or down by auctioning blocks of bills or bonds at varying yields, as a tool of monetary policy. A successful auction at a new higher rate means that the central bank is effectively attempting to move borrowing rates higher in the money market, by absorbing cash, and lowering overall market liquidity. It can take opposite steps to lower rates. The "guiding" refers to the fact that it's a non-compulsory market operation (an auction).

Isn't the same kind of terminology used in Portuguese?

I didn't know it was considered an "auction". We often hear about "Copom meeting", where analysts analyze and discuss many aspects of the economy and determine whether selic will be maintained at the same level, be increased, or be decreased.

“analysts analyze” is a pleonasm, isn’t it?

Sim, a Selic é uma meta para a taxa básica da economia, mas para atingi-la, ou mantê-la, o BC faz oprações de mercado com títulos públicos, inclusive leilões. Veja http://www.administradores.com.br/artig ... cos/11632/

Bancos centrais e tesouros na A do Norte têm os mesmos procedimentos.

Você é a contadora!!! Pára com essas perguntas pra mim! Rsrs

PS I have no idea what a pleonasm is. Is it some kind of disease common to analysts? Is there a cure? I think in Shakespeare's "Henry V", before or after the battle is won, Henry's cohorts are discussing what they'll do afterwards, and someone says something like, "First thing we do, kill all the lawyers." If it was today, it would be Wall Street analysts. A pleonasm on all of them, I say!

PPS. Is Daniel even reading any of this sage advice?

Ê Henry, fica queimando meu filme em plena Internet. O pior é que já li Assaf Neto e Eduardo Fortuna de cabo a rabo (from A to Z). Gente, se eu sumir do fórum por uns dias é pq tô estudando Economia!

You're so cute. Of course I was mentioning the redundance; it is just as well that analysts analyze something - they're probably paid to do that.

Where the hell is Daniel?
