Fed Governor Milan: Powell Should Only Serve Briefly as Governor After Chairmanship

CointimeCointime2026/05/08 12:06

On May 8, Federal Reserve Governor Milan stated on Friday that he hopes current Fed Chair Powell will only briefly remain as a governor after stepping down from the chairmanship. Milan remarked, "I think it is important to ensure that this is just a transitional phase, rather than having some ulterior motive behind Powell's continued role as a governor." Following last week's meeting, Powell indicated that he would continue to serve as a Federal Reserve governor for a period after his chairmanship ends, with his term as governor lasting until 2028. He expressed a desire to see if the Trump administration's legal attacks on the Fed would cease. While Powell's continued presence on the Fed Board could provide a counterbalance to support the status quo amid the Walsh plan for Fed reform, Powell stated last week, "I do not want to be a high-profile dissenter or anything like that." Milan emphasized, "It is important to ensure that this is a transitional phase and to avoid creating divisions of loyalty within the Fed," and to prevent "uncertainty about who is in charge." He added, "This is also why I believe that while Powell's continued presence may help with the transition, we still need to ensure that this is just a transitional period." (Jinshi)

Corning has signed a multibillion-dollar, decade-long fiber optic supply agreement with US telecom operator Verizon, under which it will provide more than 80 million miles of high-density fiber. The agreement will support both home broadband services and AI data center backbone networks. Previously, Corning had already secured major long-term contracts with Meta, Nvidia, Amazon, and others. The fiber demand from AI data centers is about 16 times higher than that from traditional switches, and combined with network upgrades by operators, this is driving structural growth in fiber demand.
