The Global Consequences of a Sino-American Cold War





What started as a trade war between the United States and China is quickly escalating into a death match for global economic, technological, and military dominance. If the two countries' leaders cannot manage the defining relationship of the twenty-first century responsibly, the entire world will bear the costs of their failure.

NEW YORK – A few years ago, as part of a Western delegation to China, I met President Xi Jinping in Beijing’s Great Hall of the People. When addressing us, Xi argued that China’s rise would be peaceful, and that other countries – namely, the United States – need not worry about the “Thucydides Trap,” so named for the Greek historian who chronicled how Sparta’s fear of a rising Athens made war between the two inevitable. In his 2017 book Destined for War: Can America and China Escape Thucydides’s Trap?, Harvard University’s Graham Allison examines 16 earlier rivalries between an emerging and an established power, and finds that 12 of them led to war. No doubt, Xi wanted us to focus on the remaining four.

Despite the mutual awareness of the Thucydides Trap – and the recognition that history is not deterministic – China and the US seem to be falling into it anyway. Though a hot war between the world’s two major powers still seems far-fetched, a cold war is becoming more likely.The US blames China for the current tensions. Since joining the World Trade Organization in 2001, China has reaped the benefits of the global trading and investment system, while failing to meet its obligations and free riding on its rules. According to the US, China has gained an unfair advantage through intellectual-property theft, forced technology transfers, subsidies for domestic firms, and other instruments of state capitalism. At the same time, its government is becoming increasingly authoritarian, transforming China into an Orwellian surveillance state.

Roubini : Crypto Is the Mother and Father of All Bubbles



Nouriel Roubini at Salt Conference in NY: Crypto Is the Mother and Father of All Bubbles
https://cointelegraph.com/news/nouriel-roubini-at-salt-conference-in-ny-crypto-is-the-mother-and-father-of-all-bubbles

Economist and notorious cryptocurrency critic Nouriel Roubini said that “crypto is the mother and father of all bubbles” at the Salt conference in New York. CNBC reported on Roubini’s declarations on May 9.

During the conference, Roubini also reportedly said that bitcoin (BTC) and other crypto assets should not be called cryptocurrencies. According to him, “cryptocurrency is totally a misnomer” since “to be a currency, you have to be a unit of account, valuable and a scalable means of payment."

Roubini also addressed bitcoin’s scalability, stating that while credit cards are capable of thousands of transactions per second, bitcoin’s network can only manage seven. He also claimed to have never witnessed a level of manipulation comparable to what is currently reported by the cryptocurrency market.

Why has the US Fed turned away from interest rate rises? | Nouriel Roubini





Stalling inflation and a need to show independence have pushed it to a dovish stanceThe US Federal Reserve surprised markets recently with a large and unexpected policy change. When the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) met in December 2018, it increased the Fed’s policy rate to 2.25%-2.5%, and signalled that it would raise the benchmark rate another three times, to 3%%-3.25%, before stopping. It also signalled that it would continue to unwind its balance sheet of Treasury bonds and mor

Trump's attack on China could mean fragility for a strong American market: Nouriel Roubini


Nouriel Roubini, Roubini Macro Associates talks about how the trade war could hurt a strengthened American economy.



Trump's attack on China could mean fragility for a strong American market: Nouriel Roubini from CNBC.




Global economies were growing in sync with each other, and that boosted optimism and business and consumer confidence. But lately that dynamic has begun to break down. "The risk is that it actually ends up into a generalized trade war between the United States and the rest of the world," Nouriel Roubini said on CNBC.

He has sold out the blue-collar voters who brought him to power, while pursuing policies to enrich his fellow plutocrats Donald Trump won the US presidency with the backing of working-class and socially conservative white voters on a populist platform of economic nationalism. Trump rejected the Republican party’s traditional pro-business, pro-trade agenda, and, like Bernie Sanders on the left, appealed to Americans who have been harmed by disruptive technologies and “globalist” policies promoting free trade and migration.But while Trump ran as a populist, he has governed as a plutocrat, most...

Roubini on Poland Economy Challenge



Roubini: Well, one has to agree with that. Since the transformation, Poland’s economy has been developing at the pace of about 4% per year. The World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, and the rating agencies – all forecast that you would continue to grow at a 3.5 – 4.5% rate. The potential growth could be even higher. Yet, you face a very serious challenge.

Roubini: Bitcoin is a 'gigantic speculative bubble' that will end



BI: Aren’t you scared by such technologies like blockchain? Because of it, human factor can be reduced to the minimum. And who benefits? The cryptocurrencies, like bitcoin that the CEO of JP Morgan, the largest investment bank in the world, already called the big fraud.


Roubini: First of all, I would separate the blockchain from the bitcoin. Blockchain creates an enormous chance to increase productivity in many companies and I think the technology to be something very good. But the bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies – this is something entirely different. In my opinion, there is a gigantic speculative bubble related to the bitcoin.


BI: Why?

Roubini: Because this is neither a serious method of payment nor a good way to store capital. The bitcoin feeds on itself. There are no fundamental reasons for its price to reach such levels. What’s more – it is also used by criminals, for their shady business. I think that more and more countries will start to make cryptocurrency exchanges illegal like China did. New regulations will be adopted. So, this will find its end.

Roubini : The Plot Against America’s 99%

US President Donald Trump, in partnership with congressional Republicans, is pursuing tax cuts that will blow up the fiscal deficit and add to the public debt, while benefiting the rich at the expense of middle- and working-class Americans. Once again, Trump has not hesitated to betray the people he conned into voting for him.
NEW YORK – After multiple failed attempts to “repeal and replace” the 2010 Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), US President Donald Trump’s administration now hopes to achieve its first legislative victory with a massive tax giveaway that it has wrapped in the language of “tax reform.” To that end, Republicans in the US Congress have just unveiled a bill that, if enacted, could vastly widen the deficit and increase the public debt by as much as $4 trillion over the next decade.
Worse still, the Republican plan is designed to funnel most of the benefits to the rich. It would lower the corporate tax rate from 35% to 20%, reduce the tax on capital gains (investment profits), eliminate the estate tax, and introduce other changes that benefit the wealthy.
Like the Republicans’ health-care proposals, their tax plan offers little to struggling middle- and working-class households. Trump continues to govern as a pluto-populist – a plutocrat pretending to be a populist – who has not hesitated to betray the people he conned into voting for him.

The Mystery of the Missing Inflation by Nouriel Roubini


Sept 13, 2017 Nouriel Roubini

Since the summer of 2016, the global economy has been in a period of moderate expansion, yet inflation has yet to pick up in the advanced economies. The question that inflation-targeting central banks must confront is straightforward: why?

NEW YORK – Since the summer of 2016, the global economy has been in a period of moderate expansion, with the growth rate accelerating gradually. What has not picked up, at least in the advanced economies, is inflation. The question is why.
A New Trump?

Sep 15, 2017 Elizabeth Drew pours cold water on heated speculation that the White House is finally getting its act together.
2
Add to Bookmarks
In the United States, Europe, Japan, and other developed economies, the recent growth acceleration has been driven by an increase in aggregate demand, a result of continued expansionary monetary and fiscal policies, as well as higher business and consumer confidence. That confidence has been driven by a decline in financial and economic risk, together with the containment of geopolitical risks, which, as a result, have so far had little impact on economies and markets.

The Gap between Wall Street and Main Street is widening



“While stock markets continue to reach new highs, the U.S. economy grew at an average rate of just 1.9% in the first half of 2017 — slower than it had been growing in President Barack Obama second term — and is not expected to perform much better for the rest of the year,” he wrote for Project Syndicate. “Yes, inflation is low, and corporate profits and stock markets are soaring. But the gap between Wall Street and Main Street is widening,” wrote Roubini, a professor at NYU’s Stern School of Business.

Roubini : A Dim Outlook for Trumponomics

 https://www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/dim-outlook-for-trumponomics-by-nouriel-roubini-2017-08
NEW YORK – Now that US President Donald Trump has been in office for six months, we can more confidently assess the prospects for the US economy and economic policymaking under his administration. And, like Trump’s presidency more generally, paradoxes abound.
The main puzzle is the disconnect between the performance of financial markets and the real. While stock markets continue to reach new highs, the US economy grew at an average rate of just 2% in the first half of 2017 – slower growth than under President Barack Obama – and is not expected to perform much better for the rest of the year.
Stock-market investors continue to hold out hope that Trump can push through policies to stimulate growth and increase corporate profits. Moreover, sluggish wage growth implies that inflation is not reaching the US Federal Reserve’s target rate, which means that the Fed will have to normalize interest rates more slowly than expected.
Lower long-term interest rates and a weaker dollar are good news for US stock markets, and Trump’s pro-business agenda is still good for individual stocks in principle, even if the air has been let out of the so-called Trump reflation trade. And there is now less reason to worry that a massive fiscal-stimulus program will push up the dollar and force the Fed to raise rates. In view of the Trump administration’s political ineffectiveness, it is safe to assume that if there is any stimulus at all, it will be smaller than expected.

For more than 60 years, the U.S. dollar has reigned as the world's dominant international currency, accounting for nearly 90 percent of foreign exchange transactions and the majority of global foreign exchange reserves. However, as the United States' share of global output shrinks, the dollar is facing stronger competition from the euro and the renminbi, and may also be challenged by cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin. Panelists will explore questions such as:

Can the dollar maintain its dominant position as rival currencies gain international acceptance?
Can the euro expand beyond its role as a regional currency?
What is the path for further internationalization of the renminbi?
When will bitcoin and other digital currencies have their day?

The New Abnormal in Monetary Policy by Nouriel Roubini, Project-Syndicate


NEW YORK – Financial markets are starting to get rattled by the winding down of unconventional monetary policies in many advanced economies. Soon enough, the Bank of Japan (BOJ) and the Swiss National Bank (SNB) will be the only central banks still maintaining unconventional monetary policies for the long term.
The US Federal Reserve started phasing out its asset-purchase program (quantitative easing, or QE) in 2014, and began normalizing interest rates in late 2015. And the European Central Bank is now pondering just how fast to taper its own QE policy in 2018, and when to start phasing out negative interest rates, too.
Similarly, the Bank of England (BoE) has finished its latest round of QE – which it launched after the Brexit referendum last June – and is considering hiking interest rates. And the Bank of Canada (BOC) and the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) have both signaled that interest-rate hikes will be forthcoming.
Still, all of these central banks will have to reintroduce unconventional monetary policies if another recession or financial crisis occurs. Consider the Fed, which is in a stronger position than any other central bank to depart from unconventional monetary policies. Even if its normalization policy is successful in bringing interest rates back to an equilibrium level, that level will be no higher than 3%.

Roubini: Whistling Past the Geopolitical Graveyard

NEW YORK – With Emmanuel Macron’s defeat of the right-wing populist Marine Le Pen in the French presidential election, the European Union and the euro have dodged a bullet. But geopolitical risks are continuing to proliferate. The populist backlash against globalization in the West will not be stilled by Macron’s victory, and could still lead to protectionism, trade wars, and sharp restrictions to migration. If the forces of disintegration take hold, the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the EU could eventually lead to a breakup of the EU – Macron or no Macron.
At the same time, Russia has maintained its aggressive behavior in the Baltics, the Balkans, Ukraine, and Syria. The Middle East still contains multiple near-failed states, such as Iraq, Yemen, Libya, and Lebanon. And the Sunni-Shia proxy wars between Saudi Arabia and Iran show no sign of ending.

In Asia, US or North Korean brinkmanship could precipitate a military conflict on the Korean Peninsula. And China is continuing to engage in – and in some cases escalating – its territorial disputes with regional neighbors.

The global recovery’s downside risks by Nouriel Roubini


 For the past two years, the global economy has been growing, but it has swung between periods of rapid expansion and deceleration. During this period, two episodes, in particular, caused US and global equity prices to fall by about 10%. Is a pattern emerging, or is a fitful global recovery set to stabilize?


The first episode came in August/September 2015, when many observers feared that China’s economy could be headed for a hard landing. The second episode, in January/February 2016, also stemmed from concerns about China. But investors were also increasingly worried about the stalling US growth, collapsing oil and commodity prices, rapid interest-rate hikes by the US Federal Reserve and unconventional negative-rate monetary policies in Europe and Japan.

There is no Global Recession in sight, "says Professor Nouriel Roubini



What would be the effects of Trump's protectionist policy for Colombia?

The effects will be seen mainly in the markets of Tlcan (with Mexico and Canada) and with China, which is the monster of exports, and with Europe, but I do not think there are any direct implications on trade blocks against Colombia. However, the risk for Colombia is that, precisely, the level of global growth will be lower because trade is going to be reduced on the global scale.

If this happens, there may also be 'wars' in international trade where tariff barriers can be imposed, and that is going to hit global trade, which in turn affects the growth of all and, therefore, could hit the country In their economic performance.

This myth shattering book reveals the methods Nouriel Roubini used to foretell the current crisis before other economists saw it coming and shows how those methods can help us make sense of the present and prepare for the future.

Renowned economist Nouriel Roubini electrified his profession and the larger financial community by predicting the current crisis well in advance of anyone else. Unlike most in his profession who treat economic disasters as freakish once-in-a-lifetime events without clear cause, Roubini, after decades of careful research around the world, realized that they were both probable and predictable. Armed with an unconventional blend of historical analysis and global economics, Roubini has forced politicians, policy makers, investors, and market watchers to face a long-neglected truth: financial systems are inherently fragile and prone to collapse.

Drawing on the parallels from many countries and centuries, Nouriel Roubini and Stephen Mihm, a professor of economic history and a New York Times Magazine writer, show that financial cataclysms are as old and as ubiquitous as capitalism itself. The last two decades alone have witnessed comparable crises in countries as diverse as Mexico, Thailand, Brazil, Pakistan, and Argentina. All of these crises-not to mention the more sweeping cataclysms such as the Great Depression-have much in common with the current downturn. Bringing lessons of earlier episodes to bear on our present predicament, Roubini and Mihm show how we can recognize and grapple with the inherent instability of the global financial system, understand its pressure points, learn from previous episodes of 'irrational exuberance,' pinpoint the course of global contagion, and plan for our immediate future. Perhaps most important, the authors-considering theories, statistics, and mathematical models with the skepticism that recent history warrants-explain how the world's economy can get out of the mess we're in, and stay out.

In Roubini's shadow, economists and investors are increasingly realizing that they can no longer afford to consider crises the black swans of financial history. A vital and timeless book, Crisis Economics proves calamities to be not only predictable but also preventable and, with the right medicine, curable.

Roubini : The Risk of an EU split should not be underestimated

Star economist Nouriel Roubini warns against the slow-down of the EU in the face of growing populism in Europe. Only a greater Europe - supported by strong economic growth - can stop this process.



Since the Brexit vote last June, the British economy has got off quite lightly. However, there are initial signs that the economy is growing at a slower pace. To what extent the growth is going back, Roubini is concerned with the course of the negotiations on exit.

Brexit has also not had any negative impact on the European economy, as the reforms, less austerity and the unconventional monetary policy of the ECB are driving the Eurozone economy well.

However, the US economist, who was the only one to predict the financial crisis of 2008, warns that the Brexit could lead to a breakup of the EU, for example by the independence of Scotland, which could also push forward independence in Catalonia. The consequence would be a further split of the EU.

Nouriel Roubini on the progress India has made













A disastrous tsunami is right in the face of Indians. From now on, for the next 20 years, every month 1 million additional youths reach working age. Right now only 9% are absorbed by the formal sector, 59 % stay in the rural villages. As these youths are not gainfully employed, in 20 years, it is the whole lost generation. The brutal reality for Indian rising.
