What happened

Income investors may want to toss out their old playbook now that Kevin Warsh is at the helm of the Federal Reserve.

Why it matters

The chairman has already called for a " regime change " at the central bank and created five task forces to evaluate the way it does business.

Common ground

He has curtailed signals about future rate moves, shortened the central bank's post-meeting statements and often provides few answers about his particular policy views.

Perspective signals

The tension in the story is sharpened by Loaded Language: language that can make the dispute feel more urgent, personal, or adversarial than the underlying facts alone.
