Parsad Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 The chief economist at Citigroup has made some startling predictions by the year 2050! Unfortunately, he didn't see Citi's own future between 2005 and 2009. These guys always crack me up.

treasurehunt Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 The chief economist at Citigroup has made some startling predictions by the year 2050! Unfortunately, he didn't see Citi's own future between 2005 and 2009. These guys always crack me up. Cheers! In defense of Willem Buiter, he joined Citi as chief economist in January 2010. Before that he used to write the maverecon blog at the Financial Times: http://blogs.ft.com/maverecon/. I have a vague recollection that Buiter was fairly early in recognizing the financial crisis, but I could be wrong. His blog used to be pretty good and worth reading.

Parsad Posted February 26, 2011 Author Share Posted February 26, 2011 I take back by critique Treasure. Perhaps, adding him is the best thing Citi could have done. Although I still have a hard time with anyone who makes predictions out to 2050. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
