Description: Join us as we get into the weeds of Eurodollars, the Libor rigging scandal during the 2008-9 financial crisis, and the Libor replacement known as SOFR (the "secured overnight financing rate"). SOFR is supposed to be safe against manipulation that happened to Libor; but is it? We'll look at the mechanics of how Wall Street and London City bankers could still ruin wholesale credit for everyone, again, on Grubstakers CIA Paper on Soviet banks in the west in 1969: https://www.cia.gov/library/readingroom/docs/DOC_0000233857.pdf?fbclid=IwAR2GIP9__UuFi0eMddht7_xl83cplWQoW9oMspKNc7tD57WuzXNEvPkPhu8
