BREAKING:
The new Fed Chair just signaled a major shift.
Kevin Warsh says QE is fueling inflation.
The Fed's massive balance sheet is part of the problem.
"The Fed should exit markets outside of crises."
This is not Powell talking.
This is a completely different philosophy.
Powell printed. Warsh wants to stop.
Powell expanded the balance sheet. Warsh wants to shrink it. $6,700,000,000,000 in Fed assets.
Warsh just told you that number needs to come down.
- Less liquidity.
- Higher rates for longer.
- Risk assets reprice.
The market has been betting on easy money.
The new Fed Chair just bet against it.
Everything changes on today.
