@1:50 Debt Supercycle / Debt Trap: the only way to 'normalize' debt ratios and interest rates is to let inflation take care of it, since actual rational economic policy is politically impossible to enact
Exactly. We are past the point of no return now. The deflationary bust would cause sovereign default and last for a decade. Inflate away the value of the debt likely in a few large spikes is their only play. Because of the corruption that will likely be involved in the process have have hidden most of my savings in gold and some silver. Totally out of the system. It's not about getting rich, but staying under the radar of theft by Government. I'm taking cover and hoping I'm wrong.
Inflation will be exacerbated by China's aging demography. Commoditized cheap goods coming from China won't be cheap anymore, as China's blue-collar workers are aging and ailing fast.
Roubini sees the reality but the process is perfectly timed for the next phase anyway. China has entered a dance and the USA, I don't know how, is in the correct cycle to enter the dance as well!! A real incredible time in history unfolds in front of our eyes.
Been watching Roubini since I was in college in 2011 - he has been calling for an "epic crash" across all asset classes since 2011, and every single year since then he "calls the top" and warns us. He's been wrong. All I'm saying is look at someone's track record of predictions before you decide how seriously to take them.
@@pirate9154 Call the top enough times and eventually you will be right. Go look up his interviews from 2011, he was saying the same thing. Or any year really.
It's because Powell's argument for continuing stimulus is that wealth inequality, racial inequality, and other ESG issue still aren't solved. While everyone is screaming at Powell, "that's not your job to fix. STOP PRINTING!!!"
Roubini looks at the worst case scenario and makes it his base case. The hall mark of a great risk manager. He's not a pessimist; he is a hard core, detailed realist. Contrary to what many think, he is not recommending that we may as well all lay down and die. He is encouraging governments, central banks, corporates, investors and workers to make the best possible strategic and tactical decisions in a dystopian environment - to find ways to optimise income streams and other returns, given the new economic and geo-political configurations.
If there is a long list of things to do, which must be done just right, by a lot of different people and govt's, chances are it won't be done. There is a default scenario for not doing much or doing right, it's good old fashion inflation. It's already here even if you hate it, AND IT's doing it work of 1. reducing real debt 2. discourage the growth of new debt.
“If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless" -Thomas Jefferson
The game is who gets to borrow and consume wealth that they don’t have to pay back. One way to do this is to transfer responsibility for paying back the debt to the government. When government debt becomes too high, central banks keep real interest rates negative so governments don’t have to repay either. At this point cash and fixed income is nothing more than a tax on the wealth of savers that subsidizes real asset holders / governments.
We are exactly where the math takes you. The fiat debt ponzi must expand or the entire financial system collapses. Use money, an honest store of value and the fundamental driving problem ends.
"An honest store of value...." Dey ain't no such t'ing. All values are relative to one another, none are absolute. All value depends on the foibles of human desire.
@@christianlibertarian5488 that’s pretty much as good as it gets, which is WAY better then now where a handful of unelected manipulate the market so ZERO honest (albeit foible‘d) price discovery can occur. We have a command economy with price controls that has been hidden but will rapidly come into view. I bet UK, France and others publicly demand price controls, you know to curb the inflation the hidden price controls created.
Does it matter that all countries have the same level of debt? Also we seem to be in a situation where the central banks are so tied together that they can no longer act independantly. We have a global economy where we are more tied together than we ever have been before. I think the analysis has to take this into account.
Regardless, China is coming around to fix it for free of charge anyway. I think it is pretty amazing that China entered a trap and this was set the day China accepted to become the world's factory and the trap was triggered the day China decided to become greedy with this new found wealth and power under the command of President Xi. Now the trap is triggered, China has only 1 way out and that is to give up being the world's factory. USA in the meantime by luck or amazing timing, someone really really smart or a hand from above, is in a the correct cycle so that it too can go on a dance It is like a very well synchronized dance, it is just beautiful.
@@drscopeify I agree with you abt the EU, but I think the USSA is on a downward course as it becomes an authoritarian bureaucratic socialist workers paradise under one-party rule with state-controlled media.
If in the era of free flow of information, you still waiting for Roubini in Bloomberg to tell you to buy bitcoin to protect your wealth, well, don't hold your breath lol
For anyone saying that his predictions have been wrong for the last ten years, he's not predicting when it happens, merely observing and stating the obvious: that we've gone off the cliff. When we hit ground depends on how much gas is in the tank of the Fed's excavator, which, for the past twelve years, has been diligently digging away the ground that we shouldn't hit years ago. Not only delaying the inevitable but making the crash much much worse.
There won't be a crash because the price of everything will just keep rising and so on paper everyone will be notionally better off, but no one will dare liquidate because they know they won't be able to afford much in terms of acquiring real, physical assets/resources should they decide to exit their position.

That's what naturally happens when you lose control of the fiscal side. To be fair, the spending side also is determined by representatives. If you choose to spend, you are choosing to fund it simultaneously, either through regular taxation, through debt, or, when you lose the ability to borrow, through higher inflation.
For me as an individual and a trader Debt & Inflation are Not my problems. it is high time we keep aside all the mentality of depts. A debtor is more like a slave to the lender.

Will someone please to Nouriel Roubini to speak slower? He's a brilliant man, but much of his brilliance is lost on those of us who can't understand him, largely because of the speed with which he speaks. And to the interviewer, buy the guy's book. If it really means that much to you that it's your favorite of the year, at least have a copy to show us in your interview.
when workers do not want to enter the workforce but businesses need employees, they increase wages to incentivize people to enter the workforce. its happening right now with covid. AI & automization with end up automizing jobs, like trucking. this increases unemployment. Make sense?
Maybe all jobs in the future will become "bullsh*t jobs". They're really a subterfuge for helicopter money though :). However, some folks do get life satisfaction from feeling they're doing something useful, so it's just a little white lie :)
I don't think energy prices will increase actually. I think renewables will in time make energy far, far cheaper than today. Otherwise this seems accurate to me
I wish interviewers would pause to restate the point just made by the guest instead of playing monkey-mind and jumping to a non sequitur, it makes it very hard to digest the idea the guest is trying to convey, I see this non sequitur style a lot these days, the interviewer is not listening, just thinking about how to sound punchy and keep the audience on edge but not thinking about the idea that was just conveyed
Tom Keen is like so many liberal economists I have talked to. During the crisis he said we just had to add all of this debt and looked down on anyone who implied we should not. Now that it is here, he is implying with his questions that he thinks we will collapse under all this debt. Duh. You asked for it, we got it.
It's insane how well this aged. Yes Roubinin is a permabear, but he has a nack for calling the worst crises and calling them extremely accurately in their scope.

I gave you a thumbs up, but to be fair to Roubini, we didn't exactly deal with the 2008 crisis in a responsible fashion...we just kicked the can down the road. So in that context, him being doom and gloom for the last 10 years is appropriate since eventually the house of cards will come down, it's just a matter of when.
@@VinnieBoombatz374 I agree. Everybody is all over all these pessimists saying they've called 7 of the last 3 recessions and what not but just because the timeline is off does not mean the thesis is incorrect.
The Problem Is that IT isnt realy about ecconomic forcasting,that would be easy!ITS about how the goverment will react!There are to much possabilities WE cant predict
It is not debt trap it is irelevant simply because it is revolvig credit scheme. Like every bank customer lots of debt and no money in the pocket.if you provide customer with new one he have liquidity.on contrary debt trap is deflationary simply because there is not new money in the economy.broken supply chains are different story and paying people not to work also.
Inflation will rise to the point that interest rates will have to increase to stop it. Where is Paul Volcker when you need him. Powell needs to grow a pair.
Thanks to the FED and ECB the economical and market principles have no place in today’s world. The one who is not taking debt has missed the opportunities. And the one who has debt is slave to the system rest of his/her life even though the prices of their assets has gone up.

This guy has been wrong since the GFC and continues to be so. Why anyone gives him air time is beyond me.
Thanks to the FED and ECB the economical and market principles have no place in today’s world. The one who is not taking debt has missed the opportunities. And the one who has debt is slave to the system rest of his/her life even though the prices of their assets has gone up.
Winston Churchill is still around? Lol
