For stocks, investors could see a short-term drop as uncertainty rises over who will replace him and what future monetary policy might look like, especially if the new chair is perceived as more politically influenced or less focused on inflation control. Crypto markets like Bitcoin have historically jumped during central bank instability, and recent speculation about Powell’s departure caused Bitcoin to surge about 10%, with analysts expecting further gains if a more dovish replacement is expected. Overall, expect a bumpy ride for both stocks and crypto—uncertainty and speculation generally fuel volatility until it’s clear who will lead the Fed and what policies they’ll pursue.
