The last recession was in 2020. That’s not my opinion, that’s the official NBER ruling. Their recession indicator has been at zero ever since. There has been no recession in 2024, 2025, or 2026. Anyone claiming otherwise is arguing with the actual scorekeeper of U.S. business cycles.NateHiggas » 11 Feb 2026, 7:30 am » wrote: ↑ Did he really say we were well into a recession?
If we were ‘well into a recession,’ the Dow wouldn’t be setting all‑time highs. Markets tank during recessions they don’t break records. Record highs mean investors expect strong earnings and continued growth. You can’t have a recession and a record‑breaking Dow at the same time unless you don’t understand how the economy works.
