Markets on Polymarket are pricing a 0% probability that former President Donald Trump would nominate Larry Kudlow as the next Federal Reserve Chair. This reflects strong skepticism among traders despite Kudlow’s prominent role as Trump’s top economic advisor during his presidency.
Kudlow, a former CNBC host and advocate of supply-side economics, served as Director of the National Economic Council under Trump from 2018 to 2021. While he was a key figure in shaping the administration’s economic policies, his lack of central banking experience and his public criticism of the Federal Reserve during his tenure may contribute to the market’s dismissal of his chances.
The Federal Reserve Chair is a pivotal role in shaping U.S. monetary policy, with significant implications for inflation, employment, and financial markets. The current Fed Chair, Jerome Powell, is serving a second term that expires in 2026.
PreNews notes that this market carries high liquidity and reliable pricing, with resolution set for December 31, 2026.
