Who will be confirmed as Fed Chair?Kevin Warsh

Kevin Warsh becomes Federal Reserve chairman with a slim vote The US Senate confirmed Kevin Warsh as the 17th chairman of the Federal Reserve by a vote of 54 to 45. The previous chairman, Jerome Powell, had won by 80 votes. This is a narrow victory; Warsh had full Republican support but only one Democratic senator (John Fetterman) voted for him. No Fed chair has been confirmed by such a narrow margin since 1977. Warsh's election came at a time when Donald Trump has been embroiled in a bitter feud with Jerome Powell for years. Trump has called Powell "inefficient" and "stupid," accused him of delaying interest rate cuts, and even threatened to fire him. A few days ago, Trump published a cartoon trashing Powell. During his tenure, Powell managed the highest inflation in decades. Inflation reached 9.1% in June 2022 (the highest rate since 1981), and the Federal Reserve under his leadership curbed it by raising interest rates 11 times. Trump has repeatedly criticized the Federal Reserve, saying, "I understand the economy better than almost anyone." nournews.ir @Nournews_IR
