Group 1 - The U.S. Treasury Secretary, Becerra, mentioned that there are 10 to 11 candidates being considered for the successor to the Federal Reserve Chairman Powell, whose term ends in May next year [1] - The list includes three previously unannounced candidates: David Zervos, Larry Lindsey, and Rick Rieder, alongside eight confirmed candidates including Vice Chair Bowman and Governor Waller [1] - The selection process involves Becerra meeting all candidates to narrow down the list before presenting it to President Trump, indicating that the decision is not imminent and may take considerable time [1] Group 2 - Becerra stated that the Federal Reserve's interest rates should be 150-175 basis points lower than current levels, suggesting a potential for a 50 basis point cut starting in September [2] - Analysts believe the likelihood of a 50 basis point cut in September is nearly zero, requiring a weak non-farm payroll report for such a move [2] - Becerra also indicated that the Federal Reserve does not need to reimplement large-scale asset purchases (QE) and is supplementing fiscal cash through short-term Treasury bill issuance [2]
