Ah, look at all the predictors and prognosticators... How cute!

We are overdue for a recession, have them all the time. Most of them last less than a year. Then guess what happens? :teethy:

If we have what is supposed to happen, so what.

Keep on getting scared though... lol. Go all CASH and hide it somewhere. :lol:

The government increases deficit spending to spur growth...oh...

I’m sure all is just fine.

I don't have any data on that one, but it sounds reasonable...
Just a bit irritating that all the news outlets make it sound like a recession is going to start tomorrow.

But hey. Drama sells, I guess.
Most of the financial pundits are saying around May of next year.
Who knows?
Sure don't need another recession at election time ... that's how we got stuck with Obama in 2008.

Well, the debt is a problem that neither side is not taking care of. smh
So why pretend like all recessions ante the same and we just cycle in and out of them? Eventually the problems snowball and fundamentals change drastically.

We saw it after 2008. Business fundamentals go bonkers when interest rates rise above 1/2%. So when another recession looms, the things the Fed would do to ease tension are conditions that business already takes for granted.

When was the last recession that started during a democratic administration?

During the Carter years?
