President Trump formally nominated former Federal Reserve Governor Kevin Warsh to succeed Jerome Powell as Fed Chair, whose term expires May 15, 2026, with the White House submitting paperwork to the Senate in early March. Warsh recently cleared a procedural hurdle, paving the way for a Senate Banking Committee confirmation hearing next week around April 21, following disclosures of his estimated $135 million net worth and extensive financial ties that have sparked criticism from Senator Elizabeth Warren over incomplete transparency. Powell has pledged to remain until a successor is confirmed, amid GOP backing but emerging bipartisan reservations; the tight timeline and potential committee holds mirror historical Fed Chair confirmations averaging 2-3 months, shaping trader consensus on resolution speed.

If Kevin Warsh is formally nominated for the role, and his nomination is then formally withdrawn, or if the Senate rejects the nomination, this market will immediately resolve to “No”.
The Senate must confirm this nominee as Chair of the Federal Reserve for this market to resolve to "Yes". Recess appointments without Senate confirmation will not count toward a "Yes" resolution. Senate confirmation of Warsh as a member of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors will not alone qualify.
The primary resolution source for this market is official information from the U.S. Senate; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
