The NBER definition of Recession in found in Economic peaks and troughs. NBER views peaks and troughs as cycles identified from Indicators as real personal income less transfers (PILT), nonfarm payroll employment, real personal consumption expenditures, wholesale-retail sales adjusted for price changes, employment as measured by the household survey, and industrial production.
However, declines in real PCE usually account for only a small part of the declines in real GDP. Beside PCE, NBER indicators are slow and late term and react after recession began. NBER assumes in my estimation, Economic indicators are specific to the United States.
Today is different as one world economy exists. Every nation in the past 3 years suffered lower GDP and Money Supplies and higher Inflation and Interest rates.
Recession is the determination of GDP and Money supplies vs Inflation and Interest rates. Either side of the equation is the exact same as GDP = Money Supplies and Inflation = Interest rates. Same as saying GDP = Interest rates and money supplies = Inflation. All apply equally to every nation.
From a market perspective, Powell arrived with the 3M and 10 year not inverted. Volker arrived with the 3M and 10 year not inverted. Aurther Burns from 1970 - 1978 arrived with the 3M and 10 year not inverted. Under William McChesny Martin 1951 to 1970, the 3M and 10 year wasn't inverted.
All Fed chairman caused Inflation to travel higher and GDP and money supplies lower by fighting Inflation to higher Interest rates. All failed as each instance of higher Inflation lasted easily 3 years and lasting economic slowdown. The 3M to 10 year inversions also lasted 3 years.
All Fed chairs fought Inflation head on as the primary focus while Inflation is a subordinate Indicator to Interest rates and GDP. They fought the wrong battle.
