Pressure Mounts on Walsh at Federal Reserve Amid Treasury Selection Process

Alan Rappeport, a journalist from The New York Times, reports that the selection process led by Treasury Secretary Besant is putting significant pressure on Walsh at the Federal Reserve. According to Jin10, during U.S. President Donald Trump's first term, Treasury Secretary Mnuchin gradually lost Trump's trust after Powell failed to meet Trump's expectations. Although Trump currently appreciates Besant's performance at the Treasury, there is a possibility that Besant could face a similar fate as Mnuchin if Walsh does not deliver the expected rate cuts.
