Powell Likely to Stay at the Fed After Trump’s Push

Powell’s term as Fed chair ends in May, but he can remain on the Fed board through 2028. Despite Trump’s attempt to push him out, a DOJ probe may actually increase Powell’s motivation to stay, preserving the central bank’s independence. Any replacement would require Senate confirmation, and if a chair isn’t confirmed by Powell’s departure, the Fed board could appoint a temporary chair. The outcome hinges on who Trump would nominate and the Senate’s actions.
