Trump has added Fed Governor Christopher Waller to his shortlist for the next Fed Chair, as the hunt to replace Powell heats up. Waller, a dove on rates and a crypto backer, fits Trump’s push for aggressive rate cuts. While Hassett and Warsh remain top picks, Waller’s views have drawn interest from risk-on assets and Wall Street. His lack of political ties, however, puts him at a disadvantage. The move also aligns with broader efforts in Countering the Financing of Terrorism, as regulatory clarity remains a focus.
