On January 30, RSM Chief Economist Joseph Brusuelas shared his assessment of Kevin Warsh, based on Warsh's public statements, speeches, and performance during his tenure at the Federal Reserve. According to Jin10, Brusuelas concluded that Warsh's initial reaction to monetary policy issues tends to be hawkish, showing a consistent preference for interest rate hikes. However, Brusuelas criticized Warsh's handling of policy responses following the financial crisis, noting that Warsh failed to grasp the nature, scale, and impact of the economic shock, which was akin to the Great Depression. During 2007 and 2008, Warsh continued to prioritize inflation as the primary risk, despite a massive deflationary shock that had already been triggered, leading to the near-collapse of the U.S. banking system and a subsequent freeze in credit markets.
