```htmlGolden Ten Data reported on April 21 that the U.S. Senate Banking Committee will hold a confirmation hearing for Walsh’s nomination at 10:00 a.m. ET on Tuesday (22:00 Beijing time on Tuesday). Forex analyst Adam Button said that Walsh has remained particularly low-profile since being nominated, meaning tomorrow will be the public’s first real opportunity to understand his stance. The market is already familiar with Walsh prior to his nomination, and his record suggests a hawkish leaning. His dovish inclination lies in his belief that productivity is about to soar, so interest rates should be lowered. This happens to align with Trump’s wishes. Senators will note this, and Walsh will face questioning. According to Politico’s report, at the very least, he will go through the motions. I’m not sure if anyone will trust what he is going to say, but once Trump drops his investigation into Powell, Walsh’s confirmation is pretty much a foregone conclusion. Tomorrow is the hearing, not the vote. What worries me is that his testimony was actually leaked to Politico—which is pretty bad behavior for a role requiring strict information control. For the forex market and interest rates, only one issue really matters: independence. Will Walsh defend it, dodge it, or simply follow orders? How tough will he act? Can he convince people without saying something that leads to Trump withdrawing the nomination? Considering all the drama surrounding Iran, this hearing won’t be as attention-grabbing as usual.```
