Warsh criticized the Federal Reserve's policies as being too dovish and opposed the use of balance sheet tools, but as one of the 12 voting members, he needs to persuade his colleagues to support interest rate cuts or adjustments to the balance sheet, which is unlikely to happen in the short term. The current policy remains unchanged, and the market will remain tense until Warsh makes a clear statement Gennadiy Goldberg, head of U.S. interest rate strategy at TD Securities: The nomination of Kevin Warsh as Federal Reserve Chairman has triggered a steepening of the market yield curve, as the market remains deeply concerned about the independence of the Federal Reserve.

Current policy remains unchanged, but the market will continue to stay tense until Warsh makes a clear statement ### Related Stocks - [TD.US - Toronto Dominion Bank](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TD.US.md) - [VFH.US - VG Financial](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/VFH.US.md) - [IAI.US - ISHRS Us Brokers & Sec Exchg](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/IAI.US.md) - [XLF.US - Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/XLF.US.md) - [BMO.US - Bank of Montreal](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BMO.US.md) - [FNCL.US - Fidelity MSCI Financials Index](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/FNCL.US.md) ## Related News & Research | Title | Description | URL | |-------|-------------|-----| | Intact Financial Corporation Publishes 2025 Annual Report | Intact Financial Corporation has released its Annual Information Form for 2025, detailing its corporate structure, busin | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/275538338.md) | | Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB publ Sells 927,689 Shares of Manulife Financial Corp $MFC | Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB publ has significantly reduced its stake in Manulife Financial Corp by 75.9%, selling 9 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276321083.md) | | eToro Group Ltd.
