Fed Chair Warsh shifts policy focus to broad financial conditions, signals possible more rate hikes if inflation persists.

Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh has rapidly changed the Fed's communication style and moved away from traditional forward guidance, emphasizing a broader set of financial conditions to guide policy decisions. While he supports additional interest rate hikes if inflation remains high, progress on shrinking the Fed's $6.7 trillion balance sheet is slow due to economic conditions and internal consensus. Warsh's approach marks a significant shift from previous chairs by focusing on market indicators like credit availability and commodity prices. The market currently expects further rate increases, reflecting ongoing concerns about inflation and economic growth.

Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh's regime change at the Fed is the subject, with Pluang's Financials-sector market data as context.
