In a bold and unusually direct speech to close out last week, Fed Governor Christopher Waller laid out the case for an immediate rate cut. He made it clear that he’s prepared to vote for it before the end of the month, even if others aren’t.

Four potential Powell replacements have been shortlisted by the betting market. Here's who's in the running to be the next Fed Chair.

Warren added the next Fed chair will face a tough task proving they’re committed to central bank autonomy, as concerns grow that Trump may nominate someone more loyal to him than to economic principles.

A top White House budget official said President Trump is "troubled" by Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell's management, as Mr. Trump pressures him over interest rates.

As the Fed moved forward with plans to renovate its Great Depression-era headquarters in Washington during Trump’s first term, it faced concerns in 2020 during a vetting process involving Trump appointees, who called for more “white Georgia marble” for the facade of building.

"It doesn't occur to me in the slightest that there would be any situation in which I would not complete my term other than dying," Powell said in 2019.

Hedge funds say they are prepared if U.S. President Donald Trump fires Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell before his term expires next year.
