MarketWatch is asking for input from readers to determine the 50 most influential people in financial markets for 2023. The list will include traders, investors, policy makers, corporate chiefs, crypto players, and influencers whose actions, work, and opinions have impacted markets. The impressive rally in big tech stocks in the first half of the year has been fueled by investor enthusiasm about generative artificial intelligence, with Nvidia being a standout performer. Elon Musk and Jerome Powell are among the candidates for the list, with Musk continuing to be one of the most consequential CEOs in the market and Powell trying to engineer a soft landing for the economy after the Federal Reserve allowed inflation to spike. The final list will be determined by a selection committee comprising MarketWatch's group editors and the editor in chief.
