Who are the frontrunners for the top Fed job?

A Trump loyalist, Hassett, 63, served as chair of the White House Council of Economic Advisers during Trump's first term and now leads the National Economic Council.

His odds of clinching the role have dropped since early December, but Wall Street traders still deem him the most likely choice.

Hassett has been a stalwart defender of Trump's economic policies, downplaying data showing signs of weakness in the US economy and repeating allegations of bias at the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

His allegiance to the president has drawn questions from analysts about whether he would act independently at the Fed and how much sway he would have with other members of the board.

In a research note, Deutsche Bank economists wrote that Hassett might struggle, at least initially, to convince other policymakers to put aside concerns about inflation and cut rates meaningfully.

"Other officials might be sceptical of forward-looking arguments that rely heavily on the administration's policies bringing inflation closer to target," they wrote.

Even some within the Trump administration have reportedly questioned whether Hassett has the skills needed to effectively take the helm of the central bank.

Hassett addressed those questions in a CNBC interview this month, saying that the Fed's independence was "really, really important", while reiterating that interest rates still had room to fall.

"The way you've got to drive interest-rate movements is with consensus based on the facts and the data," he said.
