The US has never gone more than 9 years without having a recession.
Never
Id say that's a pretty good track record for balancing something so abstract.
Your mom has never gone more than 9 days without having a black dick in her mouth

The Dow has also been down 11 of the 15 working days this year so far, which is apparently also unprecedented

Never in the history of the stock market has the market started out poorly. Its usually a warning siren for something to come.

Safe bet to say something will happen. How big it will be is still up for debate.

Over 90 million working age Americans are jobless, brah.
>"Although the US unemployment rate has declined, more and more Americans are choosing to opt out of the labor market altogether and no longer even figure in the employment data. "
Bureau of Labor Statistics puts it at closer to 102 millions

USA's labor participation rate stands at around 60 to 65%, the same as many first world countries.

Don't forget the soft landing in 1994, where recession was avoided by lowering interest rates, among other things. That's a maneuvering margin we don't have right now.

>"participating"
Helps if you understand the fucking statistic you're citing dipshit.
>b-but look at all these part time jobs and stagnant wages
>only 5% of the people who are bothering to look for work are unemployed :3
>900,000 people stopped looking for work, unemployment fell 0.2%. What a great outcome :3
>interest rates are effectively at 0 still because we're so prosperous...right?
Nice economy you got there. If everyone just stops looking for work you can achieve 0% unemployment!
traders: short obvious bubbles and buy the dip
businesses: hunker down then buy properties and commodities for firesale prices

>All these imaginary assumptions
I'm sorry but you're gonna have to try harder.

Even more fucked up, Obama made it so that if you are a volunteer and do not have a paying job you are now considered employed.
The US government toys with the unemployment numbers to make sure that our markets don't lose foreign investment.
