What counted as right

Status
resolved
Settled on
2023-12-31

An NBER-dated US recession (or two consecutive quarters of negative real GDP) begins on or before 2023-12-31.

Neither prong of the criterion is met: NBER dated no recession beginning by 2023-12-31, and 2023 real GDP was positive every quarter (no two consecutive quarters of negative real GDP). The 2022 H1 two-negative-quarters episode fell before the utterance window and was never NBER-dated. Prediction did not come to pass; outcome value left to scoring stage.

Corrections

  • certainty verbatim marker: The marker must quote this statement's own verbatim. 'absolutely inevitable' belongs to the Oct-3 repetition (video E3yIY5SSErA), not this Oct-10 primary; the primary's high-confidence marker is 'I will be stunned if we don't ... certainly by the end of 23'. Confidence level (high) unchanged.
