🚨 Trump Considers BlackRock’s Rick Rieder for Fed Chair
🔥 The Fed Chair search is heating up. According to CNBC, BlackRock CIO Rick Rieder has joined a growing list of candidates to replace Jerome Powell when his term expires in May 2026. Other notable names include:
• Jefferies Chief Market Strategist David Zervos
• Former Fed Governor Larry Lindsey
• Fed Vice Chair for Supervision Michelle Bowman
• Fed Governor Chris Waller
• Fed Vice Chair Philip Jefferson
📢 Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent will interview all candidates, creating a shortlist for President Trump’s final decision.
💡 Key Considerations:
• Several candidates, including Rieder, have voiced support for Fed rate cuts, aligning with Trump’s policy stance.
• Current Fed members Waller and Bowman voted for a cut at the July FOMC meeting.
• No immediate appointment is expected, so the Fed’s policy direction will continue under Powell for now.
📊 This move signals continued market focus on interest rates, monetary policy, and potential shifts in Fed leadership. The selection could have far-reaching implications for both institutional investors and global markets.
