Looking at the past 6 confirmed recessions, there’s typically a delay of about 7.3 months between when a recession begins and when it’s officially declared. So, if we’re experiencing a recession now, don’t expect the “mainstream media” to report it until around November. For a recession to be officially “confirmed,” The National Bureau of Economic Research must declare it, looking for “a significant decline in economic activity across the economy, lasting more than a few months, typically reflected in production, employment, real income, and other indicators.” This lag explains why investment banks like Goldman Sachs issue early warnings, suggesting a recession might be looming. Their alerts stem from “a lower growth baseline, a sharp drop in household and business confidence recently, and White House officials’ comments showing more tolerance for short-term economic weakness to advance their policies.” Facts: Since the 1940s, the U.S. has faced 12 recessions—the longest stretched 18 months, the shortest hit 2 months during the 2020 shutdown. Since 1900, recessions have averaged about 10 months in length. THE STOCK MARKET: Across the last 11 recessions, data shows “stocks typically peak eight months before a recession starts and fall by roughly 30% on average.” Yet, between 1869 and 2018, 16 recessions actually saw positive stock market returns, averaging a 9.8% gain while GDP dropped by 3%. This suggests half of these periods showed no link to declining stock values. Even factoring in the 2020 dip, the market averaged a 1.7% rise. While stocks often ended recessions higher than they started, significant drops still occurred mid-recession, with an average drawdown of 29.2% before recovery. Post-recession, within one year, “you’d have profited in 85% of cases, and after 3 years, you’d be up 100% of the time!” HOUSING PRICES: Home prices have proven a strong shield against recessions, rising nearly every year regardless of economic conditions. Rents follow a similar trend: nationally, they’ve held steady or climbed higher, as fewer people qualify for home purchases. Housing prices tend to be far less volatile because people delay moving, homeowners avoid big changes during economic uncertainty, and, barring specific local markets, the trend leans toward stability. Ben Carlson notes that since 1950, home prices have only fallen in 7 years, with 5 tied to the 2008 subprime mortgage crisis—a non-issue today. WHAT YOU CAN DO: Since the 1940s, there have been 48 stock market corrections of 10% or more—about one every 20 months—but just 12 became bear markets. From 2008 onward, excluding two instances, stocks were up a year later, and in 60% of cases, they rebounded within three months. Graham Stephan
