I have a general question for ya!

A recession is defined by two consecutive quarters of negative economic growth right? We have not even had one negative growth quarter that I am aware of.

So what are we in and why?

Researcher's results were the markets do not respond as positively or positvely in the year after election scenario. FWIW
