Key takeaway: The era of the Fed appeasing over-leveraged markets with pivot promises is over, at least for now. Warsh's hawkish posturing forces a painful repricing across all asset classes, threatening to break foreign currencies like the Yen and exposing the profound fragility of an economy fundamentally addicted to cheap debt.
Kevin Warsh's inaugural Federal Reserve meeting shatters the establishment's rate-cut illusion.

Wall Street's liquidity addiction has officially met a hawkish regime change.
