It’s possible, but 100%?

She didn’t give a timeframe so barring apocalypse, she’s right.

Don’t forget the unelected Federal Reserve. They been tapping down the economy since the first of the year. They got there wish.

Summary:
“because Trump doesn’t bow to China.”

So many articles that make this same specious claim.
Because so many rich people invested in China.

Well, yeah, so she got that from the climate change people.

...
Wasn’t Powell the most conservative? Did PDJT have any other options?

I’m sure Steyer and Soros have “reached out” to Powell with nice messaging.

Headline distorts what’s actually said in the article.

The Founders would be aghast to know we have a political party presently that is willing to inflict pain and suffering on the American people to try and regain political power.

Actually no, they warned us against this sort of thing
and set up a form of government to prevent it.

Sadly, the 17th amendment perverted their plans.

PDJT should call out their desire for a 2019 recession and ask them in tweets and pressers why they want it?

Why didn’t you include the rest of her quote? She said an earnings recession next year is more likely than an economic one.

At no point did she predict a recession in the next year.

Don’t fall for BS headlines.

Not a chance. This lady is confusing recession with slower growth. Buy all the indicators. Business will grow next year. We may only grow 2% but a recession is -0.1% or worse for two quarters. Not going to happen. Of course the Fed could try to push it over., but I assume they don’t want the blame for a world wide recession.

Economists have predicted 8 out of the last 3 recessions. Even the pretty ones.

It’s a twofer: This investment leftist NeverTrump idiot like most others will reap a windfall in a recession while helping the resistance take down the President.

Every damn media outlet is nothing more than a doomsayer these days. I am so sick and tired of them running the economy down every time it looks like it may pick up .. like clockwork. Arrogant bastards abound on the business channels and at media outlets.

Maybe if they spent more time buying stuff for their families and friends instead of bitching at what makes this nation tick, and has for over two hundred years, well,

It’s like they want a depression, not a recession or major market correction across the board, they can never be sated, like piranha, they devour their prey, you,, and some folks think they’re just flapping their gums, until they look at the investments and who now seeks to control not only them but their wealth or lack thereof.
