President Donald Trump stated yesterday that he would be announcing the next Fed Chair early next year. As a reminder, the next Fed Chair will be taking over from Fed Chair Powell in May 2026. Moreover, during his comments, the President teased reporters that the next Fed Chair may be in the room, “I guess a potential Fed chair is here too. Am I allowed to say that? Potential. He’s a respected person, that I can tell you. Thank you, Kevin”. ‘Kevin’ refers to Kevin Hasset the Director of the National Economic Council in the US who was been touted as the current frontrunner for the Fed Chair position. In turn, the dovish implications stemming from a Trump nominee and considering Hassett’s alignment with Trump on monetary policy, any official announcement could weigh on the dollar.In terms of financial releases, dollar traders may be interested in today’s ADP national employment figure for November which is anticipated to showcase a loosening labour market in the US. In turn should the figure come in as expected or lower it may weigh on the dollar and vice versa.In the European Equities markets, we continue with our focus on Airbus with Bloomberg reporting that “Airbus SE cut its 2025 aircraft delivery target after discovering production glitches on its bestselling A320 jet that require additional checks,” which in turn could further weigh on the company’s stock price.Sticking to Europe, traders may be interested in ECB President Lagarde’s speech today which could influence the EUR.
