What causes an economic recession? - Richard Coffin

How can factors like inflation, supply and demand, and interest rates trigger recessions? Learn the economic basics of modern markets.
--
For millennia, the people of Britain had been using bronze to make tools and jewelry, and as a currency for trade. But around 800 BCE, that began to change: the value of bronze declined, causing social upheaval and an economic crisis- what we would call a recession today. So what causes recessions? Richard Coffin digs into the economic fluctuations that affect our modern markets.

I agree, that's the more reason I prefer my day to day investment decisions being guided by an advisor, seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it's near impossible to not out-perform, been using my advisor for over 2years+ and I've netted over 2.8million.

Some of the most respected analysts in the fields of markets, business, and economics have been expressing their opinions on how severe they believe the next downturn would be, as well as how far stocks may have to go, as concerns about a recession grow on Wall Street and inflation stays well above the Fed's 2% target. My objective is to have a portfolio worth at least $850,000 by the time I'm 60 years old, so I need suggestions and guidance on what investments to make to position myself for retirement.

[@Peterl4290]

Let's face it, increasing stock and index fund purchases during downturns and bear markets is unnerving. Which makes it very difficult for most people, like me, to do. It's challenging to incur the risk of investing the $1 million I have in an S&S.

I thought I had a grasp on it because I had a terrific run in my first year in the financial market. But during the epidemic, things changed, and I had to diversify into secure assets. I spoke with a coach, and they created a plan that matched my 200k annual target.

Accurate asset allocation is crucial, and some individuals use hedging strategies or allocate part of their portfOlio to defensive assets for market downturns. Expert guidance is vital for achieving this. This approach has helped me stay finan-cially secure for over five years, yielding nearly $1 million in returns on invest-ments.

Global financial markets have been significantly impacted by SVB's demise, prompting investors to sell off bank equities hastily and reevaluate their interest rate expectations. I am a $350,000 investor who is at a crossroads and wondering if it is wise to hold onto securities that are losing value. I want guidance on the best approaches to maximizing my returns in this negative market.

[@hersdera]

It is unlikely that the market will experience big gains anytime soon in light of the latest developments involving SVB, therefore it is prudent to set reasonable expectations and get ready for a potentially protracted recovery period. It is advised to postpone making big investment decisions until the economic climate in areas of concern has stabilized. It is best to take precautions and stay out of the current disturbance...

[@Natalieneptune469]

You got valid points though Inflation is dilapidating. Quite sad what's happening in the market. Although, even the worst recessions offer wonderful buying opportunities in the markets if you're cautious. Volatility can also result in excellent short-term buy and sell opportunities. The market circumstances are driving me insane, my portfolio has lost almost $13K this month alone, my earnings are tanking. I'd appreciate some financial advice from anyone who knows more going forward.

[@Robertgriffinne]

There are good days and bad days. It's a zero-sum game, but keep this advice in mind: spend wisely, invest wisely, and diversify your holdings so that when one performs poorly, the others do as well. This can be accomplished by hiring a knowledgeable specialist whose platform provides a wide range of investment options. By doing so, you leave little room for regrets and may even gain more.

[@PhilipMurray251]

People do downplay the importance of expert counsellors up until they experience the consequences of their errors. I wanted to stay afloat between the COVID outbreak and my early 2020 layoff, so I started looking for license advisors.

I was fortunate to come across someone with her level of practical knowledge and years of experience.

Some economists have projected that both the U.S. and parts of Europe could slip into a recession for a portion of 2023. A global recession, defined as a contraction in annual global per capita income, is more rare because China and emerging markets often grow faster than more developed economies. Essentially the world economy is considered to be in recession if economic growth falls behind population growth.

[@azuremain9194]

Ok let me summarise (this is mainly for my benefit so I can better understand this, correct me if I'm wrong) So a recession is a fall in production and economic growth. There're two ideas here, inflation and interest rates. Inflation is basically the same item being worth more. That same item has not changed at all, rather it is the money that is changing, i.e. decreasing in value. Instead of 1 dollar being worth a bagel, 1 dollar is now only worth half a bagel. (This might increase economic activity since by increasing your prices, provided that you still have enough demand, the company can grow larger) Interest rates is a percent of the loan paid by debtors to the creditors. If it is low, it is good seeing as companies can borrow money to expand without need to worry about bankruptcy. High interest rates will mean less people borrowing money, thus less expansion of the economy (i.e. economic activity declines). Other than being caused by shock factors (e.g. war), there might be a recession due to people borrowing lots of money and expecting to pay it back but their assumptions are not met and economic growth is slower than thought, thus they make a loss, not a profit. On the other end, people may be reluctant to invest, resulting in producers slowing down production, having to cut jobs and wages to make a profit. With the printing of money, the bank can attempt to lower interest rates (but increase inflation) to stimulate spending and economic growth. But (as the video stated) people become reliant on "cheap debt" and thus inflation becomes excessive.

The Indian recession is mainly due to bad loans. The government gave away loans without any security in 2008-12 in order to avoid decline due to 2008 financial crisis. The free loans ended up becoming NPAs that weren't even recognised until 2015-16. The problem is most of the people with bad loans are big industrialists ( the chairman of zee group, the chairman of big bazaar, Anil Ambani, etc). This has resulted in decrease in company expansion. Also, most of the banks are without liquid capital as a result of this. Capital infusion can only help so much. The best solution is to make strict norms and ensure that bad loans are recovered.
