This guys predicts a catastrophe every single year.

I am not saying he can’t be right this time but it’s just that he is never an optimist and he is wrong most of the times.

In many sectors the economy was headed to the crapper before COVID 19, even though the stock market was soaring. There can be zero correlation between the DJIA and a healthy economy and we were living it.

Now we’ve had three months of lockdowns which will be followed by another six months of excuses as to why business is slow - but eventually unless there really is a second wave, that excuse will wear thin and the fragile underpinnings of this global Ponzi scheme will be revealed.

So while he’s usually wrong, i think Dr Doom May be one the Mark this time.

I have been following Roubini since the last economic crisis. He is a pessimist but I take his predictions as usually the worst case outcomes. I have been reading about 3-4 year recovery to achieve March 2020 levels. He is predicting 10 years or more. I do think these are the 2 ends of the spectrum and we are going to land somewhere in the middle. Regardless, as a millennial we are a screwed generation. I am guessing these are two “great wars” of the 21st centuries that we experienced. Thank you Greenspan, thank you Bush, thank you Trump, and thank you Xi.

Roubini is legit.

Isn’t that like watching the sun rise on a summer morning and predicting there will be 12 hours of light today? Kind of obvious really.

Having a hard time with deciding to partake in social distance hangouts with friends. On the one hand we want to do our part in preventing the spread but at the same time weighing risks. We’re seeing many of our friends “responsibly hangout” and to be honest getting some FOMO. With so many things opening up, can’t help feeling I’m being too conservative by staying home.
