Warsh's regime change at the Fed pushes ahead â and meets resistance (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Chairman Kevin Warsh likes to measure his tenure as Federal Reserve chairman in days, and 127 days in, his promise of regime change is taking shape. He's moving fast on some easy and very visible items directly in his control but is constrained from making bigger changes by the state of the economy and by his colleagues on the Fed. Warsh has quickly put his stamp on the way the Fed communicates. Some changes appear cosmetic, such as shortening the news conference that occurs after meetings of th
No one and done: The Fed will hike at least two times over the next year, according to CNBC survey (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A majority of respondents to the CNBC Fed Survey now forecast at least two hikes over the next one year, with a third predicting three or more. It's a stark change from last month when just 46% expected a hike ahead. That's grown to 86% with 55% expecting more than a single hike.

Warsh's credibility is on the line this week as Trump policies put pressure on Fed to hike (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Before President Donald Trump reels off angry Truth Social posts if the Federal Reserve hikes rates this week, he should look in the mirror: His policies are a big reason the central bank has to consider a rate increase.

It was a sign of the Fed's continued willingness to "look through" policies of the Trump administr
Trump turns up the heat on Warsh as Fed rate hike looms (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ten days ahead of a meeting in which the Federal Reserve will likely consider raising interest rates, the Trump administration looks to be in a full-court press to halt the hike in its tracks. In the past week, the president, vice president, Treasury secretary and one of the president's senior economic counselors have all urged the Fed not to raise rates and, in some cases, to cut them â an unusually broad public pressure campaign even by the standards of Trump's long-running criticism of the
Economists want Warsh to share more on his view of the economy at Jackson Hole, says CNBC survey (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Markets want more info from the Fed Chairman and less intervention from the Treasury Secretary. That's the message from the special Jackson Hole edition of the CNBC Fed Survey. Among the 31 respondents, 80% say the Fed chairman should provide more insight into his economic views. But they're split, 48% to 48%, on whether he should provide his views on the rate outlook. "Chairman Warsh's address is poised to be extremely key given the jump in long-term interest rates and high uncertainty over the
