The United States Department of Justice recently opened, and later dropped, a criminal investigation into Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell over his handling of renovations to the Federal Reserve buildings. This market will resolve to “Yes” if the United States Department of Justice reopens this criminal investigation of Powell, or opens a new criminal investigation of Powell, by the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. If the United States federal government formally charges or announces a criminal indictment of Jerome Powell, this will also suffice for a “Yes” resolution. An official announcement from the United States Department of Justice that the investigation has been reopened, or that a new investigation against Powell has been opened, will be sufficient to resolve this market to “Yes”. Statements or reports that the Department of Justice is considering allegations or potential investigative action against Powell will not qualify, unless they explicitly indicate that a criminal investigation into Powell has been reopened or opened. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the United States Department of Justice, including any relevant United States Attorney’s Office; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.**The Department of Justice closed its criminal probe into Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell on April 24, 2026, over his handling of headquarters renovations, with U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro announcing the decision but reserving the right to restart should new evidence arise.** This move, amid President Trump's criticism of Powell's interest rate policies and push to confirm nominee Kevin Warsh, followed Senate Banking Committee pressure including letters from Sens. Warren and Durbin. No reopening or significant developments have occurred in the three weeks since, reflecting trader consensus on low near-term likelihood amid Fed transition uncertainties. Upcoming events include potential Warsh confirmation hearings and the June Federal Open Market Committee meeting, which could influence DOJ actions or scrutiny.
