I think Nixon considered economics sort of "small potatoes" stuff.

It's hard to blame him for that considering what the situation was like during the time he was Vice President. Cold War this, Cold War that.

Also, he came of age during the F.D.R. period and he knew that NOBODY was going to compete with FDR on the economic front.
If HE was going to stand out it would have to be in reshaping the geo-political.
