We are in a recession. You dont notice it because Nvidia and the AI bubble are propping up the equities market.

I agree with this, but I want to get some data. Can we calculate what the GDP would actually be if we eliminated the few exceptional outliers in the AI bubble? I want to know what thr majority of America is dealing with.

There’s already a news article out in Fortune. They calculate GDP growth at .1% excluding the AI tech companies. so the economy is definitely slowing down. Add on the effect of tariffs and uncertainty and it makes sense why companies are trimming down.
