Kevin Warsh is expected to become the new Fed Chair this week.
But this is possibly the worst time for him to replace Powell.
Just now, CPI and Core CPI data were released, and it was really bad.
CPI jumped to 3.8%, its highest level in 3 years.
Core CPI jumped to 2.8%, its highest level in 8 months.
But why does this matter?
The reason Trump selected Kevin Warsh is because he wants rate cuts.
Kevin has been against QE, but he thinks interest rates should be lower.
But after today's CPI print, Kevin can't do rate cuts.
This is why the odds of a rate cut in 2026 have dropped below 3% while the odds of a rate hike are now above 35%.
The market knows that oil's impact on inflation won't go away anytime soon, so there's just one path possible for the Fed.
Do a rate hike and crush the inflation.
But if they do that, it'll crush the markets too, which I have been warning about for weeks now.$BTC #FEDDATA

Federal Reserve Chair Transition Nears as Markets Watch Policy Shift
The transition of leadership at the U.S. Federal Reserve is drawing global attention as current Chair Jerome Powell approaches the end of his term and former Fed governor Kevin Warsh moves closer to confirmation. Investors, economists, and financial markets are closely monitoring the situation, as the leadership change could shape the future direction of interest rates, inflation policy, and global financial stability.
Recent reports indicate that Warsh has cleared a major Senate procedural hurdle, increasing expectations that he could soon be officially appointed the next Federal Reserve Chair. (Reuters) The transition comes at a sensitive time for the U.S. economy, with inflation pressures, slowing growth concerns, and market uncertainty continuing to influence monetary policy decisions.
Powell’s tenure has been defined by major economic events, including the COVID-19 crisis, aggressive rate hikes to fight inflation, and ongoing political pressure surrounding Federal Reserve independence. Analysts remain divided on how history will judge his leadership, but many agree that his policies significantly shaped the post-pandemic economic landscape. (MarketWatch)
Meanwhile, Kevin Warsh is expected to bring a different approach to the central bank. Financial analysts believe he may favor a more market-oriented strategy while also pushing for reforms within the Federal Reserve system. Some experts expect him to support a gradual move toward “neutral” interest rates, while others worry about increasing political influence over the Fed. (Wells Fargo Advisors)
Markets are already reacting to the possibility of a new Fed era. Historically, transitions in Federal Reserve leadership tend to increase volatility in bond markets, stocks, and currencies as investors attempt to predict future policy direction. Analysts warn that uncertainty surrounding the transition could temporarily affect market confidence until the new chair establishes credibility. (ABN AMRO MeesPierson)
The crypto sector is also paying close attention. Many digital asset investors believe that changes in Federal Reserve policy could influence liquidity, investor sentiment, and the broader performance of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. (KuCoin)
As the Federal Reserve prepares for a new chapter, the upcoming leadership transition may become one of the most closely watched financial events of 2026. Investors around the world will be watching carefully for signals about interest rates, inflation control, and the future independence of the U.S. central bank.

According to BlockBeats, U.S. Treasury Secretary Besant expressed appreciation for the Federal Reserve's decision to cut interest rates by 25 basis points. However, Besant was not satisfied with the language used in the announcement.
The Treasury Secretary anticipates a robust rebound in employment growth. Besant also believes that next year will see simultaneous prosperity for Main Street, representing the general public and real economy sectors, and Wall Street, symbolizing the capital markets.
