1. Dr Copper says we are on the brink of recession
2. Train volumes have declined to recession levels.
3. Oil and energy in general have been in decline on fears of a world recession
4. Layoffs among what were corporate stalwarts

are just a few of the reasons I believe a recession is here or near. Either we never actually came out of the short recession or we are going back in.
