The battle for the chairmanship of the Federal Reserve has gone crazy! Hasset and Waller are entangled, and Waller becomes the dark horse, with Wall Street directly intervening.
The competition for the Federal Reserve chairmanship has completely heated up! It was originally thought that Hasset would win, but Waller made a strong comeback, and suddenly, Federal Reserve Governor Waller emerged as a dark horse, with even BlackRock executives wanting to participate in the interview. This appointment battle is no longer an internal White House affair, Wall Street has directly reached into the White House!
Trump is hesitating and the situation is getting more chaotic. The two major contenders each have their own flaws: Hasset is questioned for his close relationship with Trump, making it difficult to ensure the independence of the Federal Reserve; Waller is accused of overly accommodating the demand for interest rate cuts for the position. While the two are entangled, Waller has risen with the advantage of "institutional experience + no personal connections," with 81% of New York meeting executives supporting him, and the professionals have collectively switched sides.
The more critical point is the deep involvement of Wall Street! Someone is lobbying for Waller, trying to exclude Hasset; the giant Stanley Druckenmiller is quietly supporting Waller, and Jamie Dimon's statement from JPMorgan has even been reinterpreted. This game has long become a battlefield of politics and finance, with the people who need to cooperate with the rhythm of the White House, the people Wall Street wants for predictable policies, and the people the Federal Reserve wants to maintain institutional continuity; under the pull of these three forces, Trump is indecisive.
Can Waller's dark horse comeback succeed? Will Wall Street's involvement influence the final candidate? Who will be elected to benefit precious metals and the crypto market the most?
