  • The Warsh revolution is coming. Powell won’t stand in the way.

    From cnbc.com

    How do you change regimes when the head of the old one isn’t leaving? That will be the question facing Federal Reserve chair nominee Kevin Warsh next month once confirmed by the Senate, now that outgoing Chair Jerome Powell has confirmed he will stick around indefinitely as a voting member of the Fed’s Board of Governors. Powell’s decision to stay has little precedent in Fed history, but it may be less disruptive to Warsh’s plans than it might otherwise seem. Powell said at a Wednesday press conference that he has no desire to be a “shadow chair” and that his plans for an extended tenure at the Fed are ... (full story)

It does feel like he's tricked Trump, looking forward to that hike, he doesn't have much choice either.

    USD/JPY tumbles further after intervention warning earlier

    From investinglive.com|Apr 30, 2026|39 comments

    It's about a 100+ pips drop in around ten minutes. I wouldn't pin this as actual intervention but it might be another case of a 'rate check' being performed by Tokyo. The pair already dropped to around 159.20 from 160.50 levels earlier in the day, before a sharp drop now to test waters below the 158.00 mark. If it were actual intervention, I reckon we'd see a more sustained 300-400 pips fall rather than this sort of dip. That especially with some bounces back to around 158.40-50 again amid some pushing and pulling. As a reminder, a 'rate check' is also part of the final call in Tokyo's playbook before intervention. It was definitely the case in past incidents even if there wasn't one that followed up the previous 'rate check' earlier this year. BoJ intervening ? #JPY USDJPY testing 158 swiftly. pic.twitter.com/65aO4pwwU4 157.82 low then quick bounce back to 158.40, then back to 158. This doesn't smell like standard "hammer it" intervention Could be some yanks up early and reacting to the news Could be Katayama's whatsapps to Bessent have finally woken him up and he put in an early rate check
