The U.S. economy could see potential growth rise from the current roughly 2–3% range to about 4% by the end of the decade, driven by a broad wave of technological advancement.

Looking further ahead, estimates suggest potential annual growth could reach around 4% by 2030 and perhaps approach 10% in under 25 years, fueled by rapid tech progress.

Roubini, as chairman and CEO of Roubini Macro Associates, presents a bullish contrast to near-term headwinds like oil shocks.

He views artificial intelligence as a long-term driver rather than a speculative bubble, with the U.S. and China as the two leading global innovators poised to benefit.

Speaking at the Greenwich Economic Forum in Hong Kong, he argued that geopolitics, climate change, and populism are not the main determinants; the technology wave will shape the next 10 to 20 years.

Roubini points to roughly 15 technologies—including AI, semiconductors, humanoid robots, and space exploration—that together form a Cambrian explosion of future tech.

Traditionally known for crisis warnings, he now carries the nickname Doctor Boom for his optimistic, growth-focused outlook.
