I don't think people realize that a recession is always a 2008 scenario. There was a recession in the early 1980s that didn't hit hard and only lasted around 6 months.

Due to high interest rates, oil fears, and the housing market that scenario is more likely to reoccure than 2008.

There was a recession earlier this year but the media didn't want to report on it.

2 consecutive quarters with negative GDP growth is a recession. There's been like 2 or 3 since 2020.
