In a surprising move, Federal Reserve Governor Stephen Miran stepped down from his influential role as chair of the White House's Council of Economic Advisers on Tuesday, as confirmed by a White House spokesperson.

The news of Miran's resignation was initially shared by the financial publication Barron's, highlighting a significant shift in economic leadership.
