Q&A With Meredith Whitney: Infrastructure Key To US Growth

Ted

FYI: Meredith Whitney became a household name in 2007 when she made one of the most controversial—and on-the-mark—calls about Citigroup, pointing out that the bank was seriously undercapitalized, with dividends exceeding profits, and would need to take drastic measures such as sell assets and cut dividends to correct the imbalance. Since then, she has opened and closed an RIA, published a book and founded Kenbelle Capital, a long/short U.S. equity fund launched in November 2013. Through it all, she has stuck to her core competency, which is hard-data-driven research, work that’s now pointing her to the glaring needs—and opportunities—in infrastructure and materials segments.

i think her name truly became household when she predicted billions of municipal bond defaults and hundreds of bankruptcies "in the next 12 months" at the end of 2010 during her 60 mins interview. she ruined the ability of many townships and school districts to borrow cheaply for many months and caused massive losses for bondholders. one trick pony she is.
