According to people familiar with the matter, President Trump will interview another candidate for Federal Reserve Chairman — Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller this Wednesday. Relevant officials warned that while the selection process is progressing rapidly, President Trump is still weighing and considering, there is a possibility that the relevant meetings will be postponed or canceled. Trump interviewed former Federal Reserve Governor Kevin Walsh last week and said that both Walsh and National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett are top candidates for the position. Waller was nominated by the President to the Federal Reserve Board at the end of Trump's term in 2020, and his appointment was approved by the Senate. Since this year, he has become a central figure within the Federal Reserve advocating interest rate cuts. The Federal Reserve announced a 25 basis point cut in interest rates in the last three interest rate meetings. When the Federal Reserve chose to keep interest rates unchanged in July of this year, Waller voted against it and advocated taking measures to cut interest rates. The White House has yet to respond to a request for comment on this matter.
