📉📈 What This Signals
Warsh’s nomination looks like a shift to:
a leaner, more disciplined Fed
less automatic support for big deficits
more tension between market expectations and political pressure

⚖️ Independence vs. “Team Trump”
Warsh is big on Fed independence—he doesn’t want the central bank to become a tool for cheap government borrowing.
But he’s also floated a “new Treasury–Fed Accord”, inspired by a 1951 deal that helped the Fed break free from direct Treasury control after WWII.

🏦 Less Easy Money, More Real Economy
The Fed’s balance sheet is ~$6.6T. Warsh wants it smaller over time.
Translation: move money from pure financial speculation back into the real economy—factories, jobs, business investment.
That probably means:
higher real rates
fewer asset bubbles

💰 Warsh on Crypto
Sees Bitcoin as digital gold, a real store of value
Calls most other coins “software, not money”
Likely to push for clearer rules + stricter oversight
Could slow down some pro-crypto bills if they clash with Fed goals

Warsh isn’t a newbie. He was on the Fed during the 2008 crisis, and he’s known as a discipline-first, inflation-hawk type who really dislikes giant money-printing programs (QE).

🚨 Trump’s New Fed Pick: Kevin Warsh and the End of “Easy Money”?
Big Fed move: President Trump is tapping Kevin Warsh to replace Jerome Powell when his term ends in May 2026. Markets didn’t freak out—yields nudged up, stocks dipped a bit, and everyone’s basically in “wait and see” mode.
