I don’t think there is any doubt we are now in a recession.



By definition, there can only be a recession if the economy is affected over a period of a few months. Hence, a one-week downturn is not a recession.
This of course does not change anything about the chance that a recession has just started over the past few days. Based on earlier predictions of economists, this is a very likely scenario. The only thing needed was a trigger, and we have one now.

More economic hardship is likely ahead, and the question is only how badly it will hit us. I think it will depend greatly on the extent to which stock markets will be able to recover (or not) once the initial panic is reduced and production starts to grind into gear again. Given the nature of this pandemic, it will probably take at least 8-12 weeks before that starts to happen. Until that time, we can only hope that the market stabilizes somewhat. Obviously, even if it stabilizes throughout the crisis, we have not yet hit the point where it's likely to do so as we're still only witnessing the initial response. The following 2-3 weeks will likely be characterized by a further downward spiral. This implies that the current development we're seeing is likely to be worse than the 2008 credit crunch at least in the short term, with severe uncertainty for the medium to long term.

Yes the downturn has to last for of a period of two or three months, but the recession is still considered to have started at the begining of that downturn period. We have negative growth right now and it will show in this months data.

Yes, that's right. And let's be honest; if this doesn't turn into a recession, I don't know what kind of situation would.

One more day and I'm off until Tuesday. A while ago I put in a vacation request for this Thursday through Monday.

I can change it and save it for later since I'll just be sitting at home but part of me just wants to get home, lock my doors and drink the case of beer I have in my fridge. Then eat a dose and just sit back. I have everything I need and I won't need to leave once until Tuesday morning when I have to go back to work.
