FMN Plus-2023/Dec, Seg 4 - The Business Cycle Part II: Is an Economic Downturn on the Horizon?

Although there are no clear formulas to identify a recession as soon as one begins, a downturn must be deep, pervasive, and lasting to qualify as a recession. Currently, economists determine if a recession is occuring by looking at a variety of complex indicators, the most common being two consecutive quarters of negative gross domestic product.
