[Bank of America Survey Shows Most Investors Expect Trump to Nominate Kevin Hassett as Fed Chair] The Bank of America December Global Fund Manager Survey shows that most investors expect U.S. President Trump to nominate White House economic advisor Kevin Hassett as the next Federal Reserve Chair. About 69% of respondents anticipate Hassett will receive the nomination, while only 4% mentioned Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller, and another 4% expect former Federal Reserve Governor Kevin Warsh. The survey was conducted before Trump indicated to the media that he leaned toward appointing either Hassett or Warsh to lead the Federal Reserve. Current Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's term will end in May.
