Major glitch: A technical glitch has almost completely wiped out Berkshire Hathaway (link)
 
April recession: Did a recession begin April? This Fed indicator seems to indicate yes (link)​​
🤔 My Thoughts
 
What stage of the cycle are we in? Q1 GDP was 1.8%. The Fed is now revising Q2 expectations down from 4.8% to 1.8%. Consumer psending is down. Pending home sales are down a massive 7.7%. Manufacturing orders are at their lowest in two years. 

Are we in the recession? Or are we approaching it?
