Disappointed with the Journal here. Not a single mention of the fact the Fed Chair has to come from one of the seven governors.
Adriana Kruger is done January 31st, so nothing can happen until then. I suppose he could announce her replacement and mention he will also be his pick for Fed Chair. Even then, nobody is going to care if he names someone early. He won't assume any power until Powell is done at the end of his term in May.
