Powell is holding his ground, but Trump is already lining up potential replacements. The key question: Who is willing to slash interest rates aggressively?
Kevin Warsh: Trump’s top favorite. A reform-minded figure with both influence and bold ideas—currently the frontrunner.
Rick Rieder: BlackRock’s market strategist and Wall Street heavyweight, emerging as a surprise contender.
Kevin Hassett: A loyal Trump ally who understands his policy vision, possibly better suited for an advisory role.
Christopher Waller: An internal Fed voice who caught Trump’s attention by supporting rate cuts.
Powell represents stability. Trump wants speed and stimulus. In this game, the fastest rate cutter wins.
Friday could be explosive.
