first, what exactly is meant by wall street here? big finance companies in NYC, hedge funds in china, venture capital firms in SF? second, 'wall street' serves many roles. i assume what's meant here is the early funding of the so called creative classes. here there maybe a larger trend toward diverse sources of financing or simply the absence as more firms achieve ramen profitability. but i think overall, it doesn't do any service by viewing wall street and the creative classes as mutually-exclusive monolithic entities locked in a death-match. if anything wall street is undergoing its own internal revolutions as we speak.
