Bloomberg View columnist Barry Ritholtz interviews  Ellen Zentner, the chief U.S. economist at Morgan Stanley. She explains why Texas came through the financial crisis so well, courtesy of its rainy day fund.

She said starting in government gave her time to think “deep thoughts” and develop her analytical approach.
