两分钟内暴跌逾10%，英镑发生了什么？ - 英镑 - IT资讯
在亚洲早盘，英镑意外闪崩，一度在几分钟内暴跌逾10%，创下英国脱离欧盟公投以来的最大盘中跌幅。
北京时间7:07左右，英镑兑美元突然出现跳水，几秒钟内从1.26暴跌至1.19附近，跌幅逾6.1%。在随后的十分钟内，英镑收复了大部分跌幅，目前跌幅在2%左右。
彭博称盘中低点为1.1841，为1985年3月26日以来的最低，但日内低点存在争议，一些亚洲做市商对英镑/美元的盘中低点存在争议，认为应在低于1.1400的水平。路透报道称当日低点达到过1.1378。以此计算，英镑兑美元下跌超过1200点，跌幅达到10%。
英镑闪崩被认为是程序交易所致。IG的市场分析师Angus Nicholson向彭博表示：
这看起来像是一场交易程序引发的闪崩，而起因是《金融时报》对法国总统奥朗德评论英国退欧的报道。考虑到亚洲时段的交易清淡，可能引发其他交易程序的连锁反应，从而放大了跌幅。
《金融时报》的报道称，法国总统奥朗德表示英国必须承受退欧的后果，这样才能让欧盟免于灾难。该报道提到，奥朗德是在巴黎一场欧盟官员参加的晚宴上表示的，他敦促欧盟对与英国的谈判持强硬立场，避免连锁反应，保护单一市场的基本原则。
尽管如此，但仍有分析师对英镑如此大的跌幅感到震惊。Think Markets的首席市场分析师Naeem Aslam在报告中写道：
这太疯狂了，姑且说这是一场闪崩，但这种跌幅是在告诉市场英镑可以跌到多低。英国“硬退欧”已经伤害到了英镑。
下图是自英国公投以来的英镑兑美元走势：
英镑的闪崩也影响到了亚洲时段其他市场的表现，标普500期货微跌0.2%，大部分亚洲股市走低。值得注意的是，在英镑闪跌的同时，离岸人民币市场也被牵连。
