According to TechFlow, on December 19, a senior government official confirmed that Federal Reserve Governor Waller had a productive interview with Trump for the Fed chair role, focusing on labor market dynamics and employment strategies. The meeting at the presidential residence preceded Trump’s national economic speech. Bensinger, Wiles, and Scavino attended. BlackRock’s Rick Rieder is set for an interview at Mar-a-Lago by year-end. Governor Bowman has dropped out. Trump’s emphasis on jobs supports views he will not favor a candidate leaning on rate cuts, a sign of risk-on assets positioning. Officials also reiterated a focus on Countering the Financing of Terrorism remains a priority.
