Roubini Forecasts 2026 US Economic Outlook: Growth Recession or Strong Recovery?

Renowned economist Nouriel Roubini predicts a mixed bag for the U.S. economy in 2026, predicting three potential scenarios: a ‘growth recession,’ ‘shallow recession,’ or ‘strong growth without a dip.’ While most likely is a ‘Goldilocks’ scenario of moderate recovery, Roubini warns that the path remains clouded by factors like government data delays and lingering tariffs.
