Kevin Warsh’s Senate confirmation as the incoming Federal Reserve Chair on May 13 has anchored trader expectations that he will guide policy, with the market now pricing an 88.5 percent likelihood that the federal funds rate stays above 2.5 percent under his leadership. Recent inflation readings have climbed higher than anticipated, reinforcing the view that the new chair will proceed cautiously on any easing despite earlier comments suggesting room for lower rates. This environment has shifted focus toward Warsh’s historical preference for measured tightening and the practical constraints posed by persistent price pressures and Treasury market signals. Traders see limited near-term scope for aggressive cuts that would push the policy rate below the 2.5 percent threshold, viewing the combination of leadership change and data as the dominant driver keeping probabilities tilted heavily toward the higher-rate outcome.

This market will resolve to “Other” if an outcome not listed occurs within the specified timeframe.
This market may resolve as soon as the respective conditions are met.
The rules and resolution criteria are as follows:
1. Who be confirmed as the next Fed Chair?
This market will resolve according to the next individual confirmed by the U.S. Senate to be Chair of the Federal Reserve by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET.
Confirmation is defined as approval by the U.S. Senate, whether by a majority vote or by unanimous consent.
Recess appointments without Senate confirmation will not count toward a "Yes" resolution.
Acting or interim appointments will not count unless the individual is confirmed by the U.S. Senate to be Chair of the Federal Reserve.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the U.S. Senate (see: https://www.senate.gov/legislative/nominations_new.htm); however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
2. Will the Fed’s lower bound reach 2.5% or lower in 2026?
The FED interest rates are defined in this market by the lower bound of the target federal funds range. The decisions on the target federal fund range are made by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meetings.
This market will resolve according to whether the lower bound of the target federal funds rate reaches 2.5% at any point by December 31, 2026, 12:59 PM ET.
Emergency rate cuts and hikes outside the regularly scheduled meetings will be considered.
The resolution source for this market is the official website of the Federal Reserve at:
https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/openmarket.htm.
Note: If the lower bound of the target federal funds rate reaches 2.5% before a new Fed Chair is nominated, it will qualify.
