Fed Faces Regime Change as Powell's Chairmanship Ends

• Powell's chairmanship officially ends, but he remains a governor, potentially creating dual centers of power.
• Incoming Fed Chair Warsh faces 'Trump rates' threats, inflation moving away from the 2% target, and new tariffs.
• Key Fed officials (Barr, Waller, Williams) express strong reservations about shrinking the balance sheet and the 'scarce reserves regime'.
• Markets are already 'testing' Warsh with rising US 2-Year, 10-Year, and 30-Year yields, and falling equity indices.
