Fed Meeting May Be Overshadowed by Chair Nomination

Louis Navellier, Chief Investment Officer at Navellier & Co., noted in his latest report that this week's Federal Reserve meeting could quickly be eclipsed by the upcoming nomination of a new Fed chair by the U.S. president.

New Chair Could Spark Inflation Debate

Navellier explained that the confirmation process for the new Fed chair in the Senate could trigger intense discussions regarding inflation policy and economic direction.
