Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Wednesday said he had spoken at length with President Donald Trump about the nomination of a successor for Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, saying there were still four "great" candidates in the running.

Bessent traveled to Iowa with Trump for a rally and then had a long discussion with him about the Fed chair nomination on the more than two-hour flight back to Washington.
