[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m in Florida. Absolutely no signs of recession here. House sales cooling down over the last year, but that was expected after the triple price increases after Covid. We could use a recession for sure, but there are hiring signs up everywhere, and I’ve had multiple friends with high level professional jobs switch employers in the last six months. This feels more like a dc thing. I’m an attorney and my work is insanely busy, large corporate clients all over the couple. I know companies are laying off, but that feels more company specific than about national trends. [/quote]

You might never feel it yourself, PP, in your line of work. DC is impacted generally, though. It's not company-specific, it's federal and industry-specific, because the causes are federal job cuts as well as tariffs repercussions. DC is getting the federal whammy. There will be industrial and manufacturing pockets all over the US that will be impacted by tariffs. But from there to a national or global recession... it depends on the Federal Reserve reacts, and how far the Trump administration is prepared to go.
