This matches what we have seen with our own eyes.

Interesting.
My bosses didn’t know what they were doing. They didn’t care as long as there was a profit. The missed opportunities got us in trouble but our job was to follow orders.

A look to Shadow Stats would offer similar analysis.

The "official" governments' information is become a manipulative tool for said governments -- plural -- to hide their failures.

Browsing Shadow Stats is eye-opening.

Exactly right. You can’t run up the cost of fossil fuels and not start a recession. That’s exactly what Bidenskyyyyyyy and his VP, Harriskyyyyyyy/Walzkyyyyyyyyy did. The Energizer Bunny isn’t real. It’s a myth. America cannot run entirely on batteries.

This Guy had heard that the S&P 500, but moreso just Dow 30, are where the growth begins and ends, unfortunately.

This article mentions the Russell 2000 being back on its heels. But there’s a wider Wiltshire 5000 that’s presumably sucking wind.

Being a smallish public company, too small to maintain a lively stable of in-house compliance attorneys, is said to be a pretty dicey proposition these days. Ruin can arrive on your doorstep on any given day, from any direction, unpredictably. So transitions tend to take place from public to private, just to get out from under the burden of being public and buy some time and flexibility to try to survive and, hopefully eventually, thrive.

Thank you, when government deficit spending accounts for 17% of GDP and you only show a 2% GDP growth at best you are in a recession. Now remove deficit spending from the equation, now you are in a 15% contraction in the best case (recession). I’ve been stating this for years.
