Background
Wikipedia
Nouriel Roubini (nicknamed “Dr. Doom”; born March 9 1958) is a Turkish-born Iranian-American economist. He is a Professor Emeritus since 2021 at the Stern School of Business of New York University.
After he received a BA in political economics at Bocconi University in Italy and a doctorate in international economics at Harvard University, he was an academic at Yale and a researcher/advisor. His early research focused on emerging markets. In the 1990s, during the Bill Clinton administration, for one year he was a senior economist in the Council of Economic Advisers, and the following year he was a senior adviser to Timothy Geithner (who was then the Treasury Department undersecretary for international affairs).
Early life and education
Roubini was born in Istanbul, Turkey, to Iranian Orthodox Jewish parents. His father was a rug dealer; he was also expected to go into the rug business himself. When he was a year old, his family lived briefly in Tehran, Iran. When he was three years old, the family moved to Tel Aviv, Israel; he still has family in Israel. From 1962 when he was five years old to 1983 he lived in Italy, primarily in Milan, where he attended the local Jewish school. He later attended the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in Israel for one year, in 1976-77. He subsequently attended Bocconi University in Italy, earning a B.A. (’82) summa cum laude in economics; in 2009 he was named Bocconian of the Year. He received a Ph.D. in international economics from Harvard University in 1988, where his adviser was Jeffrey Sachs.

- ‘Dr Doom’: World headed for dark times in the next 20 years | The Bottom Line
- Profile
- In a world faced with threats and challenges, many cynical politicians would rather kick the can down the road – and win votes – than make the tough decisions needed now. At the same time, billions of people would happily trade globalisation for their old way of life, with nations embracing a “me first” attitude and eschewing inter-country cooperation and compromise for the collective good – even in dealing with pandemics and natural disasters. Economist Nouriel Roubini, nicknamed “Dr Doom” for predicting the 2008 crash of the United States economy years before it happened, tells host Steve Clemons how a US “debt trap”, artificial intelligence and deglobalisation are part of the bleak future that awaits humanity within the next 20 years.

- Bloodbath Has Just Begun: ‘Dr. Doom’ Roubini Says We’re Solely in First Inning of Major Debt Crisis
- Profile
- “We are in the beginning of a debt crisis in the U.S., we are only in the first few innings,” says Dr. Nouriel Roubini, co-founder and chairman of Roubini Global Economics & Professor Emeritus of the Stern School of Business of New York University. “It’s very likely the Fed will pivot with the implied risk of a financial meltdown,” he tells Daniela Cambone. “There is a doom loop occurring and the Fed is in a position where they will be damned if they do and damned if they don’t raise rates,” Roubini continues. “The real economy and financial economy are contradicting each other, and the government created a mess of too much debt and now it becomes another leverage cycle all over again,” he exclaims. “The Fed has been doing backdoor QE and the financial system is reckless… everything was in a bubble 2 years ago,” Roubini continues. “Even in a mild recession, the S&P is going to fall between 30% and 50% and gold has upside in this environment,” he says. “We are in a geopolitical depression, Israel is getting ready to potentially strike Iran and cold war between the U.S. and China may soon become a hot war,” Roubini states. “There is only a certain amount of time before something happens in Taiwan, we are living in a world of geopolitical depression,” he concludes.
