Nouriel proposes an early-warning system for Financial Tsunamis

NEW YORK – Recent market volatility – in emerging and developed economies alike – is showing once again how badly ratings agencies and investors can err in assessing countries’ economic and financial vulnerabilities. Ratings agencies wait too long to spot risks and downgrade countries, while investors behave like herds, often ignoring the build-up of risk for too long, before shifting gears abruptly and causing exaggerated market swings.

Given the nature of market turmoil, an early-warning system for financial tsunamis may be difficult to create; but the world needs one today more than ever. Few people foresaw the subprime crisis of 2008, the risk of default in the eurozone, or the current turbulence in financial markets worldwide. Fingers have been pointed at politicians, banks, and supranational institutions. But ratings agencies and analysts who misjudged the repayment ability of debtors – including governments – have gotten off too lightly.

In principle, credit ratings are based on statistical models of past defaults; in practice, however, with few national defaults having actually occurred, sovereign ratings are often a subjective affair. Analysts at ratings agencies follow developments in the country for which they are responsible and, when necessary, travel there to review the situation

Brazil should have been downgraded below investment grade last year

Brazil should have been downgraded below investment grade last year, as the economy struggled with a widening fiscal deficit, a growing economy-wide debt burden, and a weak and worsening business environment. The corruption scandal at energy giant Petrobras is finally causing ratings agencies to reassess Brazil, but the move comes too late, and their downgrades probably will not be sufficient to reflect the true risk. Other emerging markets also look fragile and at risk of an eventual downgrade.

Roubini Predicts The Break-up of The Eurozone

 American economist Nouriel Roubini said on Wednesday that the Eurozone will break up unless the member states restore economic growth.
The New York University professor was speaking at a conference organised by IG Metall, Germany's biggest trade union, in Berlin.
He said that the Eurozone was not paying enough attention to job creation and GDP growth, because it was too focused on austerity.
"If I had to propose policies that change that historic road I would say we have to postpone the fiscal austerity in the periphery and do it more gradual, slower rather than faster. In countries like Germany where there is fiscal space instead of doing fiscal austerity now you have to postpone it and you have to do fiscal stimulus," he said.
Roubini went onto say that the fiscal compact will lead to weaker economic growth and deepen recession in the Euro area in 2013.
"And unless we restore that economic growth eventually this crisis is going to get worse and we will have a break up of the Eurozone," he said, "and unfortunately those who are resisting the most, those stimulative policies come in the core of the Eurozone and come in the government of Germany - this resisting policy that would try to restore job creation and job growth in the periphery of Eurozone. So unless we do that eventually the crisis could get worse rather than get better."

Roubini Predicts Markets Collapse in 2016

I think that this frothiness that we have seen in financial markets is likely to continue, from equities to credit to housing, and in a couple of years, most likely, this asset inflation is going to become asset frothiness and eventually an asset and a credit bubble and eventually any bubble ends up in a bust and a crash.

I would say that valuations in many markets, whether it’s government bonds or credit, or real estate, or some equity markets, are already stretched. And they’re going to become more stretched as the real economy justifies the slow exit, and all this liquidity is going to go into more asset inflation. So two years down the line, we could have this shakeout … 2016 I would say.

Roubini : Alternatives to Credit Ratings Agencies already Available

In an op-ed, Professor Nouriel Roubini explains why rating agencies are not equipped to spot the dangers hidden in a shifting global economic scene.

 No one said setting up an early warning system for a global financial storm was easy. Among those blamed for failing to spot the 2008 subprime crisis are senior politicians, the world’s biggest banks and several supranational institutions.

However, with the US Federal Reserve and Bank of England likely to raise interest rates, China’s growth slowing and commodity prices falling, we need an effective way to spot the gathering clouds now as much as ever. For many, that means turning to credit rating agencies — despite the fact that they failed to detect signs of crisis on the horizon in the last decade.

Credit rating agencies matter. These private companies assess the ability of debtors, including countries, to repay. Because regulators often defer to their assessments of the risk inherent in holding a particular asset, they in effect dictate what investors can invest in, and how much.

Roubini on expected US unemployment figures

 1. Wide of Nouriel Roubini, New York University Professor of Economics entering news conference
2. Roubini sitting down
3. SOUNDBITE (English) Nouriel Roubini, New York University Professor of Economics:
"Well, the labour market conditions are weak in the US and they''ve been weak for a while, and since the economic growth is well below potential, unemployment rate is going to go higher and the only reason why the unemployment rate has not gone higher in the last few months has been that, in spite of weak job creation, enough people have become so discouraged that they''ve exited the labour market so they don''t even show up as unemployed people."
4. Cutaway Roubini speaking
5. SOUNDBITE (English) Nouriel Roubini, New York University Professor of Economics:
"And if you look not at the unemployment rate, but the employment ratio - the ratio of people unemployed as a fraction of the population - that ratio is now at its 20-30 year low. So every measure of the labour market is now suggesting weakness and I would expect that as economic growth is below potential the labour market is not going to create many jobs."
6. Wide of news conference
7. SOUNDBITE (English) Nouriel Roubini, New York University Professor of Economics:
"Every firm said in a crisis ''in order to survive, thrive and regain profits I have to cut costs, especially labour costs.'' My labour costs are somebody else''s labour income, consumption and demand. So individual actions that are rational like ''I need to survive and thrive'', lead to a macro effect in which the destruction of labour jobs and labour income makes the recovery weaker, doesn''t create enough consumption and then makes the risk of a recession more severe."

STORYLINE:
American economist Nouriel Roubini expressed his belief that the unemployment rate in the US is going to grow higher as US employment figures are at the lowest in the past 20 to 30 years.
The New York University economist, known as Doctor Doom since predicting the global financial crisis, said on Friday that the US labour market conditions are weak which suggests unemployment rates will grow higher.
"Since the economic growth is well below potential, unemployment rate is going to go higher," Roubini told a news conference after the opening of the Ambrosetti forum on Lake Como in Italy.
As the US Labour Department is poised to release figures for unemployment and the jobless rate in August, Roubini explained that the labour market in the US has entered a vicious circle which will make recession more severe.
"Every firm said in a crisis in order to survive, thrive and gain profits, I have to cut costs, especially labour costs, my labour costs are somebody else''s labour income, consumption, and demand, so individual actions that are rational like ''I need to survive and thrive'' lead to a macro effect in which the destruction of labour jobs and labour income makes the recovery weaker, doesn''t create enough consumption and makes the risk of a recession more severe." explained Roubini.
"My labour costs (referring to businesses) are somebody else''s labour income, consumption and demand. So individual actions that are rational like ''I need to survive and thrive'', lead to a macro effect in which the destruction of labour jobs and labour income makes the recovery weaker," he said.
The US Labour Department is set to announce figures for employment and the jobless rate in August later on Friday.

“There are a number of differences,” he said. “First of all, Obama entered the worst economic and financial crisis since The Great Depression, when he came to power the stock market was down 70 percent with [an] unemployment rate like we never had before. The economy was tanking, like during The Great Depression … initial starting point was very different.”

Even in normal times, individual and institutional investors alike have a hard time figuring out where to invest and in what. Should one invest more in advanced or emerging economies? And which ones? How does one decide when, and in what way, to rebalance one’s portfolio?

Obviously, these choices become harder still in abnormal times, when major global changes occur and central banks follow unconventional policies. But a new, low-cost approach promises to ease the challenge confronting investors in normal and abnormal times alike.

In the asset management industry, there have traditionally been two types of investment strategies: passive and active. The passive approach includes investment in indices that track specific benchmarks, say, the S&P 500 for the United States or an index of advanced economies or emerging-market equities.

Roubini : China is at a Critical Tipping Point

In a recent interview with Credit Suisse, Roubini says that this time, it is China’s economy that is facing a critical tipping point. Can China’s leaders effectively manage the transition from an economy that relies too much on investment to one that is more consumption-driven?

Nouriel Roubini on Greek Deal : Euro Economy, Markets should recover

If implemented, the last-gasp deal to keep Greece in the euro zone should allow the region’s economy and markets to regain the momentum they showed earlier this year by removing an existential threat to the 19-nation-bloc, economist Nouriel Roubini said on Monday.
The agreement, despite its imperfections, shows that Europe will ultimately pull together, even to try to help its weakest link, said the professor of economics and international business at the Stern School of Business, New York University.
If there had been a ‘Grexit’ – Greece exiting the euro zone – a “fundamental repricing” of euro zone assets would have been appropriate, said Roubini, the man known as “Dr Doom” who was among the few to predict the U.S. housing crash that triggered the global financial crisis.

Roubini : This 'time bomb' will trigger next Financial Collapse

The man who called the 2008 financial crisis is sounding the alarm about what may cause the next one.
Nouriel Roubini, who has been dubbed "Dr. Doom" for his dark predictions, warned in an Op-Ed in The Guardian on Monday about the existence of a "liquidity time bomb" that he fears will eventually "trigger a bust and a collapse."

The New York University economist joins a growing number of observers who are worried about the issue. Liquidity is the lifeblood of financial markets. It measures how easy it is for investors to quickly sell stocks and bonds. When investors get fearful but can't sell their stocks, it causes even more panic.

Are more flash crashes coming? Roubini pointed to several scary episodes to back up his case that investors should be worried about "severe market illiquidity."
Investors around the world were spooked by the May 2010 flash crash, which sent the Dow Industrials plummeting nearly 1,000 points in about half an hour before recovering.
And then there was the "taper tantrum" in the spring of 2013 when bond yields skyrocketed for a few days after ex-Fed chief Ben Bernanke suggested ending quantitative easing.
Just last fall, bonds had a "flash crash" of their own, mysteriously plummeting in dramatic fashion on one day before rebounding. One New York Fed official even said reduced liquidity may have played a role in the incident.

So what's causing these liquidity troubles? Roubini pointed to three major factors:
1) Herding behavior: Lightning fast trading makes up an increasingly large amount of activity in the stock market. This has led to "herding behavior" and crowded trades (think: bullish on the U.S. dollar) that can create chaos when surprises occur and everyone heads for the exits at the same time.
2) Bonds are not stocks: It's important to remember that fixed-income assets don't trade in super liquid stock markets. They mostly change hands in illiquid, over-the-counter markets. Despite that, as Roubini points out, investors can cash out overnight. That creates the potential for fire sales like those that hit the mortgage bond market in 2007 and 2008.
