    Is the 2020 recession really coming?

    We can all agree that 2019 was a tough year for the global economy, with the inversion of the U.S. Yield Curve, Trade war tensions, stagnation of Europe, Geo-political issues, and continue rise of populism.  This  uncertainty brought in the first months of 2019, led to a generalpessimism among financial journalists and analysts, which resulted in articles forecasting a major recession around the corner. However, by the end of last year we started to witness signs of stability and unlikeliness of a major breakdown in the world economy, and markets gave up the idea of a possible recession. Should we prepare for something big to happen this year? What are the odds?
