White House National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett is seen by advisers and allies of President Donald Trump as the frontrunner to be the next Federal Reserve chair, according to people familiar with the matter, as the search for a new central bank leader enters its final weeks.

With Hassett, Trump would have a close ally whom the president knows well and trusts installed at the independent central bank, the people said, speaking on the condition of anonymity. Hassett is seen as someone who would bring the president’s approach to interest-rate cutting to the Fed, which Trump has long wanted to control, some of the people said.

US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping on Monday held their first talks since agreeing to a tariff truce last month, discussing trade, Taiwan and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. 

Trump said the telephone call was “very good” and that the leaders spoke about purchases of soybeans and other farm products as well as curbing shipments of illegal fentanyl. The US president said he agreed to visit Beijing in April, and that he had invited Xi for a state visit next year.

“Our relationship with China is extremely strong!” Trump posted on social media. “There has been significant progress on both sides in keeping our agreements current and accurate. Now we can set our sights on the big picture.”

Trump Says He’ll Visit China

A discussion of a reported forthcoming plan from the White House to extend Obamacare subsidies -- potentially as long as two years -- led Bloomberg Intelligence's Washington Policy Pulse on Nov. 24. Such an extension, if enacted, could bode well for insueres such as Centene and UnitedHealth. We also previewed a meeting at the FDIC -- to be held on Nov. 25 -- that will see that regulator finalize a leverage ratio rule for banks like Bank of America, Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs. Finally, we highlighted a forthcoming executive order on artificial intelligence that, in our view, may face certain a court challenge.

Donald Trump and New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani are set to meet at the White House on Friday.

The meeting marks the first time the two leaders will come together to discuss how they can work with each other since the election earlier this month.

Mamdani was elected as mayor of New York City after campaigning on a progressive platform that includes freezing the rent on more than 1 million stabilized apartments, providing universal child care, funding free buses and operating city-owned grocery stores. Mamdani, a democratic socialist, is seeking higher taxes on corporations and the wealthy to pay for his agenda.

US job growth topped expectations in September but the unemployment rate continued its march higher, underscoring the lingering fragility of the labor market. 

The Bureau of Statistic’s latest jobs report, long delayed due to the government shutdown, showed nonfarm payrolls rose 119,000 in the month after declining in August. The unemployment rate, meanwhile, rose to its highest level in nearly four years — reflecting both the positive dynamic of more Americans participating in the workforce and the gloomier reality of more people losing their jobs.

President Donald Trump said he would formally designate Saudi Arabia as a major non-NATO ally in a further strengthening of ties between the two countries, capping a day of dealmaking between the US leader and the kingdom’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. 

“I’m pleased to announce that we’re taking our military cooperation to even greater heights,” Trump said at a White House dinner in honor of the 40-year-old royal. This is “something that is very important to them,” he added.

US President Donald Trump said Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman “knew nothing about” the murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi, as the pair met to announce a deepening of economic ties at the White House. 

“A lot of people didn’t like that gentleman that you’re talking about,” Trump said when asked about Khashoggi alongside the Saudi prince in the Oval Office. “Whether you like him or didn’t like him, things happen, but he knew nothing about it, and we can leave it at that.”

A preview of what a final leverage ratio rule -- which we think will be released before the end of the year -- led Bloomberg Intelligence's Washington Policy Pulse on Nov. 17. The change will likely cut Tier 1 capital for banks like Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs and Bank of America. We also discussed chances of a crypto bill passing in 4Q -- key for platforms like Coinbase and Robinhood. We also discussed the potential for $13 billion of aid for US farmers as well as a status update on the National Defense Authorization Act.
