Silicon Valley Bank and ‘The Great Purge’
The “binge and purge” credit cycle dates back decades. It goes like this: When interest rates are low, people binge on credit. When the rates rise… yep, you got it.

Editor, European Financial Forecast
Brian Whitmer was a civil engineer in another life, so he’s got a good sense of how things are constructed. Applying that skill set, he deconstructs today’s sundry financial vehicles, like CDOs, meme stocks, subprime mortgages, SPACs, et al, and contextualizes them for his subscribers. He edits the monthly European Financial Forecast and contributes the European stock section of our monthly Global Market Perspective.
Brian’s also got a bit of wanderlust, so he gets a first-hand, boots-on-the-ground feel for what’s really going on around the world.
