Our view that the US government partial shutdown will likely end this week -- with the bulk of the US government funded for the rest of the fiscal year -- led Bloomberg Intelligence's Feb. 2 edition of the Washington Policy Pulse. We also discussed the confirmation process and how it could play out for President Donald Trump's nomination of Kevin Warsh to be the next Chairman of the Federal Reserve, especially in light of Senator Thom Tillis's desire to block the nomination at the Senate Banking Committee. Finally, we discussed upcoming testimony from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on regulation for banks like Bank of America, Citigroup and Wells Fargo.
