Edward Moya, a senior market analyst for the Americas at OANDA Corp. in New York says that the economy appears to be tipping into a recession. “It looks pretty clear that we are going to see parts of the economy break and we are heading for a recession.”
“We forget that there’s also a banking crisis going on, so there’s going to be some pain that’s really going to cripple small and medium businesses. We are going to see some tough times and are probably going to see this play out in markets,” Moya added according to a report by Market Watch.
Analysts have been discussing a recession for well over a year, and it has yet to happen. However, the warning signs are glaring red right now. Just a day ago, a surprise oil-production cut announcement led by Saudi Arabia over the weekend put the prospects of $100-per-barrel oil prices back on the radar, and initially seemed bad for inflation. As Monday’s trading wore on, investors regarded higher oil prices as beneficial for some United States companies and used the OPEC+ announcement as an opportunity to drive Dow Industrials and the S&P 500 to a higher finish.
While Tuesday’s job-openings data generally supports the idea that a softer labor market could help ease wage pressures, investors appeared to be more focused on the signs it is sending about the prospects for economic growth, according to Moya. “We now seem comfortable living with $100-a-barrel oil and, right now, it’s pretty clear we are recession-bound. There were a lot of people thinking an oil spike would keep inflation jitters in place, but it seems like there’s too much weakness in the economy to do that.” –Market Watch.
Others don’t believe that others are going to be a recession at all and that things will progress as “normal” and the system will continue to “function” as it has with the Federal Reserve in full control.
TD Securities in New York is one company that doesn’t see a growing risk of a recession since “the labor market is quite strong,” said Gennadiy Goldberg, a senior U.S. rates strategist at TD Securities. The firm expects Friday’s nonfarm payroll report to show a gain of 270,000 jobs in March, above the 238,000 median forecast of economists polled by The Wall Street Journal.
“We are starting to see the first signs that the labor market is starting to react to tighter financial conditions,” Goldberg said. “But we can’t take away much from this about the next few payrolls or the depth of the next recession.

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.

First off, ANY numbers or “reports” generated by government burrow-craps are just that: CRAP. If we have learned ANYTHING over the last few years, it’s that the government cannot be trusted to tell the truth.
We’ve been in a recession since at least last Summer. Two or more consecutive negative quarters. Then, Bidet changed the definition of “recession” for the first time in over 100 years. We’ve BEEN in a recession!
