>> The Federal Reserve officially has a new leader. On Wednesday, the Senate confirmed 56-year-old Kevin Worsh to head the Federal Reserve as current chair Jerome Powell ends his term on Friday.
President Donald Trump had picked Worsh to bring sweeping changes to the world's most powerful central bank at a fraught moment for the global economy.
Early in his career, Worsh advocated against cuts to lower interest rates to keep inflation under control.
But more recently, he aligned himself with Trump's views, arguing that artificial intelligence and other technologies can boost productivity and economic growth without igniting inflation.
inflation. At 35, Worsh became the youngest governor on the Fed's seven member board, serving in that post from 2006 to 2011.
Worsh also married to Jane Lauder, the daughter of billionaire cosmetics era Ronald Lauder, a major Republican donor.
Senate Democrats have condemned Worsh for not fully divulging the details of his own wealth, which amounts to at least $und00 million.
His investments include stakes in Poly Market and SpaceX, but he hasn't revealed the size of those holdings.
He promised to sell all such assets within 90 days of being sworn in.
As Fed chair, WSH now faces rising energy prices and inflation concerns tied to the conflict involving the US, Israel, and Iran.
Worsh will also have to contend with Pal's continued presence on the Federal Reserve's governing board.
Pal's term as a Fed governor does not expire until 2028.
