I think there is a rule. Like 2 quarters back to back

Not yet. It takes 2 consecutive quarters of negative growth.

I believe the arbitrary “rule” is two consecutive quarters of contraction, to rule out outliers.

My understanding is 3 quarters of negative growth constitutes a recession. Could be wrong, seems thats what I read many moons ago.
