    “A quarter to a third chance of the economy heading into recession.”

    So 67% to 75% chance the economy is just fine?

    This will be an industrial recession at worst, much like 2000-01. Consumer will be fine. Maybe we get a washout to the tune of 20-25% but that’s where you’d add leverage, or deploy cash. Cycle isn’t over, just maturing.

    Put the burlap away.
