Powell "has taken too many actions to weaken the Fed's oversight of our largest banks and deregulate Wall Street," and renominating him for another term "is not a risk worth taking," Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren, who also opposed Powell's nomination in 2018, said in an earlier hearing.
In overnight trade in Wall Street broader S&P-500 for the first time hit 3,000-mark on Mr Powell's statement. Asia markets turned positive in tandem.
