Fed gridlock threatens Trump's Wall Street deregulation push
TL;DR Summary
Dissent within the Federal Reserve over deregulation is slowing its decision-making and could complicate Kevin Warsh’s Senate confirmation as the next Fed chair, potentially hindering President Trump’s Wall Street deregulation agenda. Warsh says he would maintain Fed independence on interest rates while allowing more administration influence on regulation, a stance that could exacerbate intra-Fed splits and affect regulatory moves tied to Trump’s priorities.
