Opinion | Recession Fears Are Overblown

The yield curve is upside down, leading to worry about recession. Stocks declined last week after the 10-year Treasury yield fell below the two-year Treasury yield.

Yet while an inversion of the yield curve has preceded all postwar recessions, not all inversions signal imminent recession. The curve was flat for most of the 1990s, and even inverted briefly in 1998, without a recession. Today, given the economy’s underlying strength, fears of immediate recession are overblown.

Trump Flip-Flops On Possible Payroll Tax Cut, But Says U.S. ‘Far’ From RecessionAs recession fears linger, the president reverses his position. with interest rates already low and some powers taken away by the Dodd-Frank Act, the Fed has fewer tools at its disposal than in recessions past. Fiscal policy, too, is somewhat limited. Trump already has spent nearly $2 trillion on tax cuts for corporations and the wealthy. Trump — like the rest of us — had better hope and pray that we don’t have a recession anytime soon. Because if we do, it’s gonna be bad. another tax-cut should help that trillion dollar deficit he's racked-up, sure. Throw another trade war in for good measure.

Why fears about Biden's age are overblownMedical experts say the ex-veep — as well as Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and Donald Trump — are part of the population known as "super-agers." I wonder how much Biden paid to have this article published. The less you listen to 'medical experts' the longer you'll live. A “superager” is just a wealthy boomer. This just means you’ve had access to money and healthcare your entire life.
