RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Fears of recession hammering Cu prices The long, long anticipated recession is the most talked-about-to-death recession prediction in human history. This means it is nearly fully priced-in.
Don't forget too that experts have predicted a recession 10 times over the period covering the last 3 recessions.
IF we get a recession and by the time it is officially called a recession (months after the second negative quarter), the markets will explode higher on that move with the market realization that we're half way through an average recession.
Recessions don't last forever, a year and change on average. And markets move 9-12 months in advance of anticipated events. If a recession is already priced in, but still not occuring, you should be in accumulation mode.
Be wary when an opinion is so broadly held and especially when you are being asked to join a stampede that has already raged for some time.
If we get a good economic print or two and the market suddenly drops its expectation of a looming recession then the market will explode higher suddenly. You don't want to be out of the market when that happens.
