Chris Whalen expressed concern over Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh's credibility, stating that Warsh is not projecting enough power and is being too cautious. Whalen believes that Fed chairs need to have some 'drama' and willingness to challenge the system, comparing Warsh unfavorably to Paul Volcker.
“You know, Fed Chairmen have to project power. Uh, and I think he's being too cautious.”
“When Volcker, you know, he had a little swagger to him, and he was willing to take on the system. And he did that.”
“But I worry, Julia, that he's not credible.”
