A #recession is easy to get out of, 1989, 2000, 2007, the list is a long one. A #depression is tough slough, but still doable. Watch out for Stagflation that barreling down the road. Last time it happened Interest rates went upto 20% and Volker was the most hated name in the Western Hemisphere.

Not saying there will be a depression, but a recession is guaranteed in most countries, including Canada.

"The World Trade Organization on Tuesday forecast slower trade growth for next year because of the Trump administration’s sweeping global tariffs, but it said trade had proved more resilient than expected so far this year."

Donald Tramp Is the Only Man Who Can Save Americans From Prosperity

I’m almost convinced that on #linkedin companies only post #jobs so they get follows automatically for each applicant. Untick that box ya’all. #jobhunting #recession #jobboards

🔴 Economic domino effect begins: US tariffs spark immediate 8.5% drop in French exports, $2.8B monthly business losses. European factories already reducing shifts and closing workshops.

When protectionism becomes policy, everyone loses in the global economy.

Employer hiring plans at lowest level since 2009

Sen #ElizabethWarren (D-MA) sent a letter Thursday calling on the #Labor Dept to release the #data despite the #shutdown. According to William Beach, a fmr commissioner of the #BLS, the monthly survey was collected & processed this week.

Shutdown or not, the #Trump admin has already canceled some data collection, such as an annual survey of #FoodSecurity & another on #farmworker #wages, to obscure understanding of the #US’ economic health.

#OrchestratedShutdown #economy #recession #law

Other #labor market indicators generated by the private sector have been downbeat. The payroll processor ADP estimated that nongovernmental employers shed 32,000 #jobs in September, while the outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas found that companies’ announced hiring plans so far this year were at the lowest level since 2009.
