In this episode, Megan examines the recent decline in the leading economic indicator index for March, which may be signaling a recession. This index has pointed to negative growth in 24 out of the last 25 months, a pattern that has often preceded economic downturns in the past.
Megan explores the various factors contributing to this trend, such as a decrease in building permits and a slowdown in orders for non-defense capital goods. Despite these concerns, consumer spending has remained strong, providing some support to the economy.
Although the economic outlook appears challenging, the stock market and leading credit index show some positive signs.
