Another obvious indicator on the path towards the nigh-oncoming recession or just a blip on the radar?

Personally I believe a recession is coming. I believe what we're seeing now are disparate pieces of information stacking up. Sales down here. Instability over there.

There's so much kindling laying around. It just needs a spark.

I too believe a recession is on it's way, but I have zero idea whether it is tomorrow or a decade from now. Everything feels overhyped and full of scammy cash, nothing feels sustainable, and we didn't learn much from 2008. But my feeling can't help anyone or anything.

Trump, China, Iran, Brexit... there are a lot of possible sources of sparks.
