### Comment:
Recession. Noun: defined by 2 *consecutive* quarters of *negative* GDP. Has nothing to do with the stock market per se. Obviously there will eventually be another recession but we will likely have several market corrections and rallies before that happens since unemployment is at historic lows and GDP has been over 3% lately and is forecast to remain there through next year.

 Most economists expect some serious dipping in the coming quarters. GDP in Q1 was over 3% only because of a fall in imports (China) and a surge in inventories (Boeing 737 Max and trade war stockpiling). I'd be surprised if we don't start seeing quarterly GDP of 1ish% this year.
