Recession Risk Has Leapt Under Trump, Economists Say

Since President Trump took office, economists have slashed estimates for growth while raising them for inflation and unemployment. The main reason is tariffs, according to respondents in our quarterly survey of economists.

--The probability of a recession in the next 12 months stands at around 45%, according to economists questioned between [b]April 4 and April 8.[/b] That's up from 22% in January.

--Economists expect US gross domestic product after inflation to expand just 0.8% in the fourth quarter from a year earlier.  That is down from a forecast of 2% in January.

Look at those survey dates.  That's before anything was implemented.  Things have gotten worse since then.[/quote]
