A concatenation of circumstances
Many years later I would learn that the financial crisis of 2009 had already begun rearing its ugly head in the summer of 2007. But in 2007, the exuberant speculation in the housing market was drowning out the concerns of the few doomsaying bankers and economists. Wall Street was deluged in a rain of money.
