Preamble: "A decade after the financial crisis, The Wall Street Journal has checked in on dozens of the bankers, government officials, chief executives, hedge-fund managers and others who left a mark on that period to find out what they are doing now. Today, we spotlight analyst Meredith Whitney and economist Nouriel Roubini.

"After the crisis, Mr Roubini stuck with his bearish views, failing to foresee the economic rebound and the stock-market rally that followed. In 2911, he told The Wall Street Journal that the risk of a global recession was at least 50%.

Note:
(a) This is a very short report, which states his position prior to the 2008 financial crisis (which seems prescient to me):

"Mr Roubini was dubbed 'Dr Doom' after an International Monetary Fund event in September 2006, where he said a slowdown in the US housing market could lead to a global recession.
At a 2007 panel in Davos, he argued that a rosy 'Goldilocks' economic environment was 'threatened by three ugly bears'—a meltdown in the subprime-mortgage market, rising oil prices, and an end to cheap credit."
