The global markets have obtained a case of tremors this week in the wake of President Trump’s global tariff policy. Everyone, from hedge fund managers to online content creators, began to question the stability of the American economic trajectory. We now see an increased fear that a recession is fast approaching.
Brittany is joined by the co-host of the Podcast indicator of NPR, Wailin Wong, and the co-host of the Podcast Planet Money of NPR, Jeff Guo. Together, they discuss how this moment connects to the economic anxiety of 2008 and why the definition of a recession is a little more difficult to identify than you think.
