Statement from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome H. Powell

So, that is free money then?

One of the senior ppl I know there told me there’s an Epstein connection. Anyone know anything about that?

I haven’t heard anything about that. You’d think if there was, the admin would’ve put something out by now to get powell axed.

Maybe this is what ppl are talking about? Doesn’t seem particularly credible to me.

Wtf happened in the last 2 weeks?

The inter day swings are wild. Rieder is down to 40% now. I should get on this, its was so obvious Waller was going to dissent. I can’t believe it wasn’t baked in.

Friend of mine at a specialist communcations firm told me a few weeks ago that there’d a be a big change in the Fed stakes and that one of the dark horses would take the lead. Guess she was right.

I wouldn’t be surprised. She’s friends with a lot of ppl who specialize in communications/media and she told me a day before that Hassett was gonna endorse Rieder. While not a full throated endorsement, it does look like she was right: https://www.investing.com/news/economy-news/white-house-adviser-hassett-praises-blackrocks-rieder-in-fed-chair-race-93CH-4460000.

Craziest part about this is that it doesn’t even count as insider trading

So who bet on Rieder and got their faces ripped off???

Looks like betting markets knew by 7pm yesterday… When was the first news broken? WSJ was around midnight???

Must feel good.
