Let's try and gain some perspective here. In 2021 the quarterly GDP rates were 6.3%, 6.7%, 2.3% and 6.9%. So far in 2022 the economy has retracted -1.6%. So based on what we went through in 2019 & 2020 if we retract just a little bit after substantial growth do we really need to chicken little "the sky is falling"?
