Key Lawmaker 'Relents', Wash's Biggest Obstacle to Assuming Fed Chair on May 15 Cleared

Key political opposition to Kevin Warsh's nomination as Federal Reserve Chair has been removed after Senator Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) withdrew his objection, clearing the way for a committee vote on April 29. Tillis had previously blocked the nomination due to a criminal investigation into current Chair Jerome Powell, which he viewed as a threat to Fed independence. The Justice Department has since dropped the investigation. Warsh, who has broad Republican support, is expected to be confirmed by the Senate in time for Powell’s term expiration on May 15. If confirmed, Warsh has signaled significant policy changes, including abolishing the "dot plot" of interest rate projections and reevaluating the Fed’s forward guidance framework. These changes could fundamentally alter the market’s pricing mechanisms for stocks, bonds, and currencies. Although the criminal case against Powell is closed, uncertainty remains as he retains his board seat until 2028. President Trump has not fully endorsed Powell, citing an ongoing review of Fed renovation spending. Warsh’s potential reforms target the communication tools developed post-2008, which have become foundational to global asset pricing.

"Form Over Substance" Fed Hearing: Warsh Avoids Interest Rates, But Offers Reassurance for Crypto

Kevin Wash, nominee for Federal Reserve Chair, testified before the Senate Banking Committee, emphasizing his independence from former President Trump and stating that Trump never asked him to commit to specific interest rate decisions. Wash avoided extensive discussion on monetary policy but called for institutional reforms at the Fed, advocating for a gradual and cautious reduction of the balance sheet without clear signals on rate cuts. The hearing was seen as largely symbolic, with Wash’s confirmation hinging on political negotiations offstage, particularly whether Trump drops his investigation into current Chair Powell. Notably, Wash expressed a crypto-friendly stance, acknowledging digital assets as part of the U.S. financial services industry and committing to divest his own crypto holdings if confirmed. This marks a positive signal for the crypto market from a potential Fed leader.

Under Political Pressure, Is the Federal Reserve Still Independent?

Amidst political pressure from former President Trump and congressional scrutiny, Kevin Warsh, nominated as Federal Reserve chair, argued that public comments from elected officials on interest rates do not fundamentally threaten the Fed’s operational independence. Instead, he emphasized that the real risk to the Fed’s autonomy lies in its failure to control inflation, which could erode public trust. Warsh also cautioned against the Fed overstepping into fiscal or social policy domains beyond its mandate. His remarks come as the Fed faces external pressures, including a Justice Department investigation into a renovation project and persistent inflation above the 2% target, exacerbated by rising energy prices. Warsh stressed that the Fed’s focus on its core mission—price stability—is essential to maintaining its credibility and independence.

Powell's Reappointment Probability Soars to 98%, Is Trump's 'Firing Order' Just Empty Talk?

Powell's likelihood of remaining as Fed Chair surges to 98%, as Trump's threat to fire him appears increasingly unenforceable. The key issue is the Senate confirmation of Trump's nominee, Kevin Warsh, scheduled for a hearing on April 21. Opposition from Republican Senator Thom Tillis, who insists on delaying the vote until a Justice Department investigation into Powell (regarding Fed building renovation costs) is concluded, threatens to stall the process. With limited Senate working days before Powell's term ends on May 15, Warsh’s confirmation is unlikely to proceed in time. If no successor is confirmed, Powell will continue as interim Chair, a scenario supported by precedent and the Federal Reserve Act. Trump has threatened to fire Powell if he doesn’t step down, but legal authority to do so is weak—dismissal requires “for cause” justification, not policy disagreements. The ongoing investigation has so far yielded no evidence of wrongdoing by Powell, making a court challenge likely to fail. Market participants, however, may prefer Warsh, who is perceived as more open to rate cuts and crypto-friendly policies.

Fed holds rates steady as Bitcoin and Ethereum trade flat ahead of Powell remarks

The U.S. Federal Reserve held interest rates steady at 3.50%–3.75% on Wednesday, 28 January, maintaining a cautious and data-dependent stance amid elevated inflation and economic uncertainty. The Federal Open Market Committee reiterated its commitment to returning inflation to the 2% target but offered no guidance on the timing of potential rate cuts. Crypto markets showed a muted initial reaction, with Bitcoin trading around $89,000 and Ethereum near $3,000, both remaining below key moving averages. Traders appeared to await further clarity from Chair Jerome Powell’s press conference for directional cues. The overall market behaviour reflects caution, with both cryptocurrencies exhibiting consolidation rather than decisive movement following the announcement.

Will Trump Announce the New Fed Chair on the Night of the Fed Decision?

On January 29, 2026, the Federal Reserve is expected to announce its decision to keep interest rates unchanged, with market consensus nearly 100%. While this outcome is widely anticipated, the focus will be on Chair Jerome Powell’s post-announcement press conference for signals on future monetary policy. Investors are divided over whether the Fed will continue its rate-cutting cycle later in the year or adopt a more hawkish stance due to persistent inflation, which remains at 2.8%, above the 2% target. A key uncertainty is the potential announcement of a new Fed Chair nominee by former President Donald Trump, who has hinted at a January reveal. The shortlist includes Rick Rieder (currently the most probable candidate at 47%), Kevin Warsh, Christopher Waller, and Kevin Hassett. Trump may use the FOMC meeting timing to divert market attention from any hawkish signals from Powell, instead promoting a dovish nominee to reassure markets. The new composition of the voting members on the Fed’s rate-setting committee also leans more hawkish this year, which could influence future decisions regardless of the new Chair’s stance. The outcome of Powell’s remarks and a possible Trump announcement could significantly impact market sentiment.

The Eve of the Storm: Powell Holds Rates, Trump Announces New Fed Chair?

The Federal Reserve is widely expected to hold interest rates steady in its first policy decision of 2026, with markets pricing in a near-100% probability of no change. While this outcome is largely anticipated, the focus has shifted to future policy direction and the potential announcement of a new Fed Chair by former President Trump. Key uncertainties remain regarding the pace of potential rate cuts in 2026. Although the Fed began a rate-cutting cycle in late 2025 due to a softening labor market, persistent inflation at 2.8%—above the 2% target—has led to a more cautious stance. The composition of the voting members on the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) has also shifted, with two new "hawkish" regional bank presidents joining, which may influence future decisions. Chair Powell’s post-meeting remarks will be closely watched for signals on the duration of the pause and the likelihood of further easing. Simultaneously, Trump has indicated he may soon nominate a new Fed Chair, with candidates narrowed down to four individuals. Rick Rieder, BlackRock’s Global Chief Investment Officer of Fixed Income and a proponent of lower rates, is currently the betting favorite. Trump may choose to announce his nominee around the time of the FOMC meeting to shift market attention away from any potentially hawkish signals from Powell and instead emphasize a more dovish long-term outlook. The timing and choice of nominee could significantly influence market sentiment and expectations for monetary policy.

Fed Chair Race Takes Sudden Turn: Hassett Hints at Exit, Warsh's Odds Surge

White House economic adviser Kevin Hassett indicated that President Trump is likely to keep him in his current role, effectively removing him from contention for the next Federal Reserve Chair. This development has shifted the odds in the race to succeed current Chair Jerome Powell, with former Fed Governor Kevin Warsh now emerging as the clear favorite. Prediction markets show Warsh’s probability rising to 60%, while Hassett and Fed Governor Christopher Waller have fallen to around 15%. Another candidate, Rick Rieder of BlackRock, is also in consideration, with some supporters believing he may have a smoother path to Senate confirmation. The selection process, led by Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, has gained additional complexity due to a Justice Department investigation into the Fed’s headquarters renovation. Powell has accused the DOJ of using the probe to pressure the central bank for rate cuts, raising concerns about political interference in Fed independence. Despite the controversy, Mnuchin expressed confidence that the Senate would confirm any of the four candidates under consideration. Powell’s term ends on May 15, and Trump has said he will announce his nominee this month.

Bitcoin gains after Jerome Powell warns of Fed ‘intimidation’ – Here’s why

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell publicly criticized political pressure from President Trump, calling a DoJ probe into the Fed a "pretext" and vowing to resist intimidation. Analysts suggest that compromised Fed independence could boost demand for safe-haven assets like Bitcoin and gold. Following Powell’s remarks, BTC rose from $90.5k to over $91k. Historical patterns show that similar political tensions in 2025 triggered rallies in Bitcoin and gold. Experts warn that the escalating conflict may increase market volatility but could ultimately benefit Bitcoin as an emerging store of value, especially if the White House pushes for rate cuts and stimulus measures.

US Fed Chair Jerome Powell Gets Global Support, No Rate Cut Likely

US Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has received strong backing from global central bankers, including the heads of the Bank of England, the European Central Bank, and the Bank of Canada. They emphasized the importance of central bank independence for economic stability. This support comes amid ongoing tension with former President Donald Trump over interest rate policies. According to market predictions, there is a 94.5% chance the Fed will not cut rates in the upcoming January meeting. The last rate cut occurred in December 2025, reducing the lending rate to 3.5%-3.75%. Powell has stated that recent legal scrutiny may be an attempt to undermine the Fed’s independence.
