Summary

Michael McKee, Bloomberg International Economics and Policy Correspondent says we can expect Kevin Warsh to be confirmed to Fed Chair with similar numbers. - The Senate confirmed Kevin Warsh’s nomination to the Federal Reserve Board of Governors Tuesday, with the chamber expected to confirm him separately as chair later this week. The 51-45 Senate vote Tuesday grants Warsh a 14—year term on the central bank’s board. The Senate plans a procedural vote shortly to pave the way for a vote on Warsh’s confirmation to succeed Jerome Powell as chairman.  The confirmation vote on the chairmanship is likely to occur Wednesday. The chair’s term runs for four years. (Source: Bloomberg)
