Here we were, meandering along ahead of the Martin Luther King Day holiday, when comments from President Trump<\/a> completely changed the market\u2019s calculus about the next Federal Reserve Chair.  Suddenly, Kevin Hassett, currently the director of the National Economic Council, no longer appeared to be the favorite for the role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a report in Bloomberg<\/a>,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI actually want to keep you where you are, if you want to know the truth,\u201d Trump told Hassett during a White House event. \u201cIf I move him, these Fed guys \u2014 certainly the one we have now \u2014 they don\u2019t talk much. I would lose you. It\u2019s a serious concern to me.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pricing on ForecastEx moved swiftly<\/a> after the news broke.  The \u201cYes\u201d for \u201cWill President Trump nominate Kevin Hassett as Fed Chair?\u201d fell to 24% after hovering around 40% for the past few days.  Conversely, the \u201cYes\u201d for Kevin Warsh, which had been steadily edging higher from the low 20s to about 45%, jumped to 61%.  The relative odds for the two candidates had been converging as the days dragged on without an announcement; today\u2019s comments caused them to diverge dramatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s not clear that the potential change in the Fed leadership horse race is leading to a meaningful set of reactions in stocks and bonds.  Futures on the S&P 500 (SPX) were already giving back a portion of their overnight gains in early trading, though we did get a bout of additional selling when the story hit.  The drop, of course, was eventually deemed to be another in a series of dip-buying opportunities, and broad indices largely recovered.  We also saw bond futures tick lower, causing yields to rise.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rise in 10-year yields would be concerning if today wasn\u2019t the Friday before a three-day weekend.  The 4.20% yield level has acted as resistance since September.  Before that, it was support.  (Note: the resistance is from a yield viewpoint, but it\u2019s support from a price viewpoint \u2013 we\u2019ll be talking in terms of yields here.)  Although it could be quite meaningful if 10-year yields broke through the 4.20% level, it is difficult to imagine that a significant change in bond market sentiment will take root on a Friday afternoon ahead of a three-day weekend.  We will more likely need to wait until Tuesday to see if that occurs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In general, this is the sort of day that one might normally expect ahead of a holiday.  Indeed, this is a monthly options expiration, which might present the opportunity for an extra bout of late volatility \u2013 especially on an otherwise low-volume day.  In the meantime, we are looking at mixed activity, with about half the SPX sectors higher and breadth is slightly negative.  It seems unlikely that too much will change this afternoon, but stranger things have happened, no?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
