Key Points

• Fed Chair Warsh promised to lead a reform-oriented Fed and has made several changes since taking the reins on May 22.
• The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) kicked off only the fourth rate-hiking cycle of the 21st century on Sept. 16 to combat persistently elevated inflation.
• Two of President Donald Trump’s policies are directly boosting consumer prices.
• However, Wall Street’s No. 1 catalyst is also stoking the coals of inflation, leaving Fed Chair Warsh and the FOMC in quite a bind.
