Danielle DiMartino Booth is an American financial analyst, commentator, author, and speaker. She is widely known for her monetary policy, central banking, and economics knowledge.

Danielle previously worked at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas as an advisor to Richard Fisher,  former president and CEO of the Dallas Fed. During her time there, she analyzed financial and economic issues, providing valuable perspectives on monetary policy decisions.

After leaving the Federal Reserve, DiMartino founded her economic consulting firm, Money Strong LLC, where she provides research and analysis on economic and financial market trends. She also writes columns for various publications and regularly appears as a guest on financial news networks, sharing her expertise and perspectives on economic and monetary issues.

In addition to her work as an analyst and commentator, Danielle DiMartino is also the author of the book “Fed Up: An Insider’s Take on Why the Federal Reserve is Bad for America,” published in 2017. In the book, she offers a critical examination of the Federal Reserve’s policies and their impact on the economy and society.

DiMartino’s Fed Up

“After correctly predicting the housing crash of 2008 and quitting her high-ranking Wall Street job, Danielle DiMartino Booth was surprised to find herself recruited as an analyst at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, one of the regional centers of our complicated and widely misunderstood Federal Reserve System. She was shocked to discover just how much tunnel vision, arrogance, liberal dogma, and abuse of power drove the core policies of the Fed.”

In her book “Fed Up” DiMartino provides a unique perspective on the Federal Reserve’s policies and their consequences for the economy and society. Drawing on her experience as an advisor at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, DiMartino offers an insider’s look at the workings of the Central Bank, shedding light on its culture, decision-making processes, and internal dynamics.

The book critiques the Federal Reserve’s post-2008 monetary policy actions, particularly its massive bond-buying programs (quantitative easing) and ultra-low interest rates. DiMartino argues that these policies have distorted financial markets, encouraged excessive risk-taking, and exacerbated income inequality.

A key concern raised in “Fed Up” is the potential long-term consequence of the Federal Reserve’s policies on financial stability. DiMartino warns about the risks of asset bubbles, excessive leverage, and the misallocation of capital, which could pose systemic threats to the economy if left unchecked.

Danielle emphasizes the disconnect between the Federal Reserve’s actions and their real-world impact on ordinary Americans. While the Central Bank’s policies may have benefited Wall Street and the financial sector, they have often come at the expense of Main Street, hurting savers, retirees, and small businesses.

She advocates for greater oversight of the Central Bank, clearer communication of its objectives and decisions, and a more balanced approach to monetary policy that considers the needs of the broader economy.

DiMartino’s Bitcoin Stance

Danielle has expressed cautious views about Bitcoin. Her general stance on Bitcoin aligns with her skepticism toward assets that lack intrinsic value or are highly speculative.

Given her background in traditional finance and her focus on monetary policy and financial stability, DiMartino may have reservations about Bitcoin’s volatility, lack of regulatory oversight, and potential risks. She may also be concerned about Bitcoin’s use in illicit activities and its potential to disrupt traditional financial systems.

On a recent podcast with Natalie Brunel, Danielle expressed her thoughts on Bitcoin. She stated:

“Bitcoin first, it’s the engine on the train of speculation”

DiMartino expressed that she’s not anti-technology, but she believes quantum computing will be the catalyst for human financial freedom. She added:

“I’m very curious about Quantum Computing and I am very curious about the future of Finance… That takes the Monopoly, the oligopoly banking system the way that these things are delivered to individuals, kind of just liberating that for all.”

Natalie replied:  “Well, you are a Bitcoiner, you just don’t know it yet”.
