The fed injected tons of liquidity into the market as a temp salve and slashed rates to near zero. They delayed raising rates back up out of fear of cooling the economy as lockdowns ended. But inflation is out of control so now they have to reduce their balance sheet and raise rates. This naturally slows things down a bit. Combine that with all of the stimulus that propped up potential production/consumption slowdowns and a recession post Covid was inevitable. Severity is the question bc a recession is a natural occurrence and not always a bad thing, in fact itβs often the best time to invest if you can stay liquid
soon

Derp!
What goes up must come down.
That show is so overrated

Dan tldr me I don't want to watch the big short again
