Financial markets swiftly rejected Mr. Warsh’s approach, which involved tough talk on inflation but stopped well short of embracing the prospects of higher interest rates to quell price pressures. Financial markets swiftly rejected Mr. Warsh’s approach. #WarshIsAToady #TrumpsEconomy #Blues

“The response primarily from the US govt bond market was unequivocal. Markets expected more from policymaker who made taming inflation a top priority..LT govt borrowing costs shot higher..with the 30-year bond notching its largest 1 day increase in more than a year” www.nytimes.com/2026/07/30/b...
