I'm surprised this sort of thing is on HN's front page.
Yes, we are on the tail end of a long expansion cycle, and a recession is inevitable. However, prediction headlines like this have been on the front page of CNBC, MarketWatch, etc every other day for FIVE YEARS now.
On the alternating days, there are headlines about how the expansion has a xx% chance of continuing for another two years.
Financial news is the lowest form of clickbait trash.

- RickJWagner 7y agoExpect to see more of it. With national elections looming in the US, perception of the economy is of strategic importance. Sad to say, maintaining a strong economy does not transcend politics. Expect leading headlines from both directions.
