Kevin Warsh assumed the Federal Reserve chairmanship in May 2026 for a term through 2030, succeeding Jerome Powell amid expectations of easier policy under President Trump. Trader sentiment on early departure reflects Warsh’s subsequent hawkish pivot: he has eliminated forward guidance, pared policy statements to factual summaries, launched task forces on inflation, communications, and the balance sheet, and repeatedly stressed commitment to the 2% target despite inflation remaining above 3.5% year-over-year into mid-2026 amid energy shocks and tariffs. Markets have priced in limited near-term removal risk, with implied probabilities for an exit by year-end 2026 or mid-2027 staying in the low single digits to low teens, as his operational reforms and data-dependent stance have reinforced institutional independence even as Treasury yields hover near multi-year highs and the Fed holds the funds rate at 3.50–3.75%. The August 28 Jackson Hole speech and September FOMC meeting represent key near-term tests of whether policy divergence with the administration intensifies.

The departure will be considered to be announced when Kevin Warsh, the Federal Reserve of the United States, or their authorized representatives publicly and definitively announce that Kevin Warsh has ceased or will cease to hold the position of Chair of the Federal Reserve of the United States. Such an announcement will qualify regardless of when the specified person formally leaves the position. Announcements of the specified person's resignation, removal, or departure through other means all qualify.
Only announcements which are framed as announcing a departure intended to be effective within 18 months of the date of the announcement will qualify (e.g., neither "I will leave office in 2 years," nor "I will not be in office forever," would qualify).
Announcements of temporary leaves of absence, dated suspensions, indefinite suspensions, administrative leaves, or other temporary changes to the specified person's duties in the specified position do not qualify.
The following do not qualify as public and definitive announcements: statements that the specified person is considering or open to departing; conditional statements that the specified person will depart only if certain conditions are met; the announcement of an offer of resignation that requires acceptance and remains pending or has been refused; media reports that the specified person plans to depart; statements made in sarcasm or jest; and statements by persons other than the specified person, the relevant authority governing the specified position, or their respective authorized representatives.
If the specified person holds the specified position on a predefined term with a scheduled end date, only announcements that they will depart the position prior to the scheduled end of their term qualify.
If the specified person formally ceases to hold the specified position before the end of their scheduled term without a qualifying announcement, the market will resolve to "Yes" if a consensus of credible reporting confirms the departure by the specified date, 11:59 PM ET.
The primary resolution sources for this market will be official information from Kevin Warsh and the Federal Reserve of the United States; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
