President Trump is considering a diverse group of eleven potential successors for Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, as his term expires in May 2025. These candidates, including former Fed Vice Chair Philip Jefferson and Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan, represent the administration’s broad effort to find the next leader of the central bank. Trump has publicly criticized Powell’s performance and expressed dissatisfaction with certain decisions, highlighting a potential shift in monetary policy direction. This decision could significantly influence U.S. interest rates and ripple effects across global financial markets like cryptocurrencies, potentially impacting asset pricing and investor sentiment.
