🚨MARKET #RECESSION SIGNALS: WHAT’S REAL, WHAT’S NOISE?
🔹Global recession fears resurface amid U.S.-China tariff tensions, despite a 90-day pause.
🔹Mixed signals: strong U.S. jobs vs. low consumer confidence; eurozone growth offset by pre-tariff inventory builds.
🔹Slashed forecasts: Economists now see 50% U.S. recession risk; Barclays expects mild U.S./EU recessions.
🔹Commodity clues: Oil down 16% YTD, copper still weak — signaling slower demand.
🔹Bond market calm: Rate cut bets rise; yield curve un-inversion may signal recession onset.
🔹Stocks rebound, but analysts warn Q1 earnings may be the last strong quarter pre-tariffs.
