It's day one of the Federal Reserve's first policy meeting with Kevin Warsh as its chair. As CNBC's Matt Peterson reports, Trump will likely give Warsh more breathing room than he gave his predecessor, Jerome Powell. One person familiar with the matter said Trump's trust in Warsh will provide him with "some scope of action." That could help Warsh announce that the Fed is keeping interest rates steady tomorrow — which markets overwhelmingly expect — without it seeming like a betrayal of Trump's push for cuts. It could also give the Fed's new chair room to implement sweeping changes. Ahead of Wednesday's rate decision announcement, respondents to CNBC's Fed Survey see the Fed keeping rates unchanged through 2027, though most do think the Fed will remove the easing bias that has signaled its next move could be a cut.
