80. What A Recession Is and How the Business Cycle Informs Us

80. What A Recession Is and How the Business Cycle Informs Us

🚨 Recession Watch: What’s Happening in the Markets? 🚨

Major banks are raising red flags about a potential recession, pointing to uncertainty around trade, tariffs, and inflation. If there’s one thing the market hates, it’s uncertainty—it fuels volatility.

As of March 13, 2025, the S&P 500 has officially entered correction territory, meaning it has dropped 10% from its recent highs. Corrections like this are a normal part of market cycles.


🔍 Looking Back:This episode was recorded on September 6, 2024. Back then, the S&P 500 was at the same levels we saw in late August/early September, driven by recession fears and a spike in unemployment—concerns that led the Fed to cut rates by 0.50% for the first time.


📅 Looking Ahead:Fast forward to today, and guess what? The next Federal Reserve rate decision is coming up on March 19, 2025, at 2 PM ET.

So let’s stay calm, collected, and calculated as we break down: ✅ What a recession is ✅ How it’s officially declared ✅ How it fits into today’s market landscape

📉 Sector FYI: Consumer discretionary stocks are taking the hardest hit this year, down 13.4% year-to-date, with Tesla (TSLA) leading the decline as the sector’s biggest component.
