And have been for a while.
Could you be more specific? When do you expect two consecutive negative GDP quarters?
I don’t see data that supports this. And an inverse yield curve is not a reliable tell. It just means people are lining up to buy long term treasuries. It’s mostly due to foreign investment because the dollar is so strong.
What economic indicators are telling you a recession is coming? Do you know the definition of recession?

We are always headed for a recession just like we are always headed towards death. It is inevitable. Stock up on Twinkies now... [Dramatic noises]

People like the OP with no balls or back bone, being frightened by every shake of the leaf, and fear mongering are the reason we have recessions. Go back to your pen little sheep.

How come they aren't telling us how great the democrat ideas about punitive taxes, oppressive regulations, and wild spending would be in a recession?
All the talk is to blame it on Trump so they can win. Why the Hell isn't anybody looking at what they'd do? They NEVER talk about growth. All they know is redistribution.

Apparently Walmart had a great quarter. Sales up. Consumers like us make up 2/3rds of the economy. Maybe Limbaugh is correct. The Powers that Be (media, entrenched bureaucrats) would like us to be in a recession moving into election season.

The media will do everything possible to talk us into a recession they can blame on Trump.

The media is clinging to anything to cheer lead the economy sour. This time it’s the inverted yield curve.
But the reason for the inverted yield curve is due to foreign investment buying long term treasuries and driving their respective prices up and yields down. It’s a flight to a strong dollar as other central banks debase their currencies, like China. The irony is the dollar is strong because our economy is doing quite well. The opposite of a recession. Furthermore ALL GDP forecasts show a positive GDP for next quarter. Again, the opposite of a recession.
But MUH inverted yield curve.

There's no maybe to it. They are going to "will" us into a recession if it's the last thing they do.
Make people THINK we are headed into a recession, making them draw back spending and sell off stocks and make a recession happen. Then blame Trump.

All of this is true. Not sure why it's getting downvotes?

No, pretty sure this guy brought truth.

You are wrong. There is no reason for the economy to slow down. The bond rate inversion is being caused, not be what caused past ones, but by a flight to safety from Europe and Asia because they have negative interest rates. So they are buying long bonds which raised their value and lowers the interest rate. The rate is not being pushed down by the Fed or by US economic issues.
Pretty simple really.
So, purveyor of truth and wisdom. Please explain where the post above was incorrect. Surely, you with all of your truth and knowledge, can easily do so.
FYI, you can't. You don't know shite about the market and you had a TDS flare up which caused your compulsion to attack.

Because it's not true. The below is true. If you disagree, what parts do you disagree with?

Consumer debt.
