About this episode
The episode discusses the upcoming changes in the Federal Reserve leadership and the implications for the economy, particularly focusing on the upcoming payrolls report.
Kevin Warsh steps into the Fed chair role this week with three regional Fed presidents calling for the removal of any easing bias and Jerome Powell staying on the board until 2028 — leaving no immediate new vacancy for the White House to fill. Plus, Friday's payrolls report will be the week's key test of whether the employment side of the economy remains as resilient as it has been since the Iran conflict began.
