Great News! Yellen Says No Sign of Recession, Krugman Says Economy Will Shrink

Hip, Hip Hooray! Perhaps the recession has left town, according to Janet Yellen, who sees solid growth and a strong labor market as positive signs the Fed's efforts to fight inflation are not hurting the economy significantly. I guess she doesn't drive, fill up her car, eat food, or buy groceries. 

Janet Yellen said she doesn’t see signs of a recession, but Nobel laureate Paul Krugman argues the worst is yet to come | Fortune 

But the good news is Paul Krugman speaking up in disagreement with the Treasury Secretary. Krugman sees an upcoming downturn: "While this report made all the people who screamed 'recession!' look as foolish and partisan as they were, it was not, if you look under the hood, a sign that the worst is over," Fortunately the Krugman prediction phenomenon can be put into play here. He does not get it right everytime, or some say, even most of the time. So, in fact, he may be in agreement with Yellen, using some obscure prediction logic analysis. Be keep in mind, past performance does not indicate future performance.
