中国央行21日宣布降息，这是其逾两年来首次调低存贷款利率，这一意外之举引发各大外媒关注。外媒普遍认为，中国未来可能步入降息周期，朝着进一步放开存贷款利率的方向迈进。并指出，此次降息给了投资者信心，对于全球市场有提振作用。
中国将步入降息周期？
美国《华尔街日报》表示，中国央行做出了逾两年来的首个降息决定。这显示出，中国领导层正倾向于采取更大规模的措施来提振经济增长。
路透社援引一位经济学家的观点称，央行应当在准备进一步降息，因为中国已经进入降息周期，降准也有可能。
美国《纽约时报》发表评论文章称，中国意外降息举措给了投资者信心。一些经济学家和分析人士指出，此次降息将很可能带来更多的刺激性经济举措。
《华尔街日报》报道称，总体而言，这是中国朝着货币政策逐步正常化迈进的一步。更中长期来看，很明显这是一个好事，但从时机的角度来看，完全出乎意料。
降息对全球市场有何影响？
降息将会造成哪些国际影响？《金融时报》指出，从国际格局而言，资本市场的互动影响并未随着全球化退潮而减弱。对于中国而言，降息直接影响汇率，而汇率变化又影响不同的利益主体：一直追随美元走势的人民币也随之强势，这对出口企业形成了强大压力。而如今降息可能让投资者抛售人民币，有可能减缓甚至逆转人民币的升值势头 ，这一方面将会有利于中国出口，另一方面央行必须十分警惕可能存在的潜在资本外流压力。
《华尔街日报》也指出，降息对全球市场有提振作用。市场对此作出了剧烈的反应，全球各地的油价、金价、铜价、股市和商品货币纷纷大幅走高。
