Forget Wall Street, worry about fintech

I'd argue that Silicon Valley's primary paying customer is the VC, and that VC's have had a field day with the easy money pumped out by the Fed and distributed to Wall Street over the last decade.

Signs of a crisis may show up in SV, but it'll trace back to a(lack of) VC funding that traces back to Wall Street.

VC is a middleman broker to LPs in this context, where LPs are endowments, pensions funds, SWFs, and the like.
