CEO & Chief Strategist
Danielle brought together a core team of investing veterans to analyse the trends and provide critical analysis on what is driving the markets – both in the United States and globally. She is a regular on the financial media circuit – often brought on to discuss “all things Fed” and frequently featured on CNBC, Bloomberg, Fox News, Fox Business News, BNN Bloomberg, Yahoo Finance, RT, and other major media outlets. Prior to Quill, DiMartino Booth spent nine years at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas where she served as Advisor to President Richard W. Fisher throughout the financial crisis. In his words she was his “eyes and ears on Wall Street” and built a phenomenal network of connections over those years, many of whom contribute to our thought process to this day.

Belkin Report
Michael Belkin
Michael Belkin
Founder
Michael, could be described as an iconoclast, which is someone who “attacks cherished beliefs or traditional institutions, as being based on error or superstition.” Of course, there are plenty of other folks doing that in the investment field. What distinguishes Michael is that he backs up his declarations with data. Michael graduated from The Haas School of Business at the University of California Berkeley, where he conducted independent research sponsored by the legendary Mark Rubinstein. His innovative streak was apparent even then. “I developed my own models,” he says, “after studying what they taught us in econometrics— because I found mainstream models were not effective.” In 1986 he was recruited by Salomon Brothers as a market analyst and soon moved into proprietary trading, attaining the position of vice‐ president. There he made his first big splash in the investing community by accurately forecasting the collapse of the Nikkei Average - which subsequently dropped 37%. Among Michael’s other accurate predictions: the top in the U.S. tech bubble in 2000, the subsequent stock market low in 2002, the housing bubble top in 2007, the credit crisis stock crash low in 2009, the pre-Covid stock market top in early 2020, the Covid crash low in March 2020 and the recent AI bubble peak in early 2025. Besides producing The Belkin Report every week, Michael is a speaker at financial industry events and a guest commentator on TV business news networks.

Michael Belkin
Founder
Michael, could be described as an iconoclast, which is someone who “attacks cherished beliefs or traditional institutions, as being based on error or superstition.” Of course, there are plenty of other folks doing that in the investment field. What distinguishes Michael is that he backs up his declarations with data. Michael graduated from The Haas School of Business at the University of California Berkeley, where he conducted independent research sponsored by the legendary Mark Rubinstein. His innovative streak was apparent even then. “I developed my own models,” he says, “after studying what they taught us in econometrics— because I found mainstream models were not effective.” In 1986 he was recruited by Salomon Brothers as a market analyst and soon moved into proprietary trading, attaining the position of vice‐ president. There he made his first big splash in the investing community by accurately forecasting the collapse of the Nikkei Average - which subsequently dropped 37%. Among Michael’s other accurate predictions: the top in the U.S. tech bubble in 2000, the subsequent stock market low in 2002, the housing bubble top in 2007, the credit crisis stock crash low in 2009, the pre-Covid stock market top in early 2020, the Covid crash low in March 2020 and the recent AI bubble peak in early 2025. Besides producing The Belkin Report every week, Michael is a speaker at financial industry events and a guest commentator on TV business news networks.

During that time, he has had a remarkable track record of predicting major market declines and profiting extensively from them. Short at the highs and then running with the decline in the 1998 Asian Crisis, the 2001 dot com bubble, the 2003 Argentine crisis, the 2007 bear market, the flash crash of 2011, last but not least the February 2020 pandemic risk-off crisis. However, his work not only accurately predicts these big dislocations and but also then focuses on the safe periods to then extract risk-off Alpha. Subscribing to Global Forecaster is effectively akin to having access to an outsourced but very experienced CIO, with a uniquely successful track record.
