[Analysis: Waller Unlikely to Be Influenced by the White House, Will Maintain a Certain Balance on the Fed's Dual Mandate] Odaily Planet Daily News – Peter Cardillo, Chief Market Strategist at Spartan Capital Securities, stated, 'I wouldn’t say Waller’s nomination as the new Fed Chair is entirely unexpected. He has always been considered somewhat hawkish, but recently he seems to have aligned more closely with Trump’s stance, making it a bit difficult to gauge how the market will react to this nomination. We just need to observe whether he will be influenced by the White House. My guess is that he won’t be. He will examine issues very cautiously and maintain a certain balance between inflation and the labor market. He may not be as resolute as Powell, but the difference won’t be significant.' (Jin10)
