There might be something to that.. Today's headline: 34% of economists in survey expect a US recession in 2021

Could have just as easily said 66 percent of economists not worried about a recession..

Recession coming? 34% of economists expect one in 2021: NABE survey

Then after all the doom and gloom they sneak this in as the last paragraph..

Still, for now, most economic signs appear solid. Employers are adding jobs at a steady pace, the unemployment rate remains near a 50-year low and consumers are optimistic. U.S. retail sales figures out last Thursday showed that they jumped in July by the most in four months.
