Kevin Warsh , Marc Rowan of Apollo Global Management , Scott Bessent , and Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-TN) are the top contenders for the Treasury spot as of Wednesday .

Prediction markets are in upheaval over who could be chosen, with no clear front-runner as there has been with other Trump Cabinet picks.

Trump announced this week that he would join the administration as Commerce secretary.

Hagerty served as an economic adviser to President George H.W. Bush and was considered for the role of top U.S. trade negotiator.

He won his seat in the Senate with more than 62% of the vote, outperforming Trump in the red state.

The pick for treasury secretary is the most powerful remaining Cabinet selection.
