I saw HUGE ramen displays yesterday at Safeway, including some of the less common flavors like blue (Soy Sauce, formerly "Oriental") and yellow (Creamy Chicken).

I can't find the blog post from the last major recession where people were talking about all the crazy flavors you only see when the economy is REAL bad.

Someone please tell the stock market, I moved my investments to be more risk averse and it hurts to watch the green line go up.

We were already in one following the tech correction since Nov 2021. [0]

The problem here is some waited for too long to be told we are now in a recession, then some politicians tried to redefine it.

But that is nothing compared to what will happen in the next 5 - 10 years. Nothing goes up forever. The only hint is that we need to prepare before 2030.

objectively we're not yet, but things are certainly weird

Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude and Grok all said no, we're not in a recession just now when I asked them.
