There's also been a ton of quietly revising numbers down months later. I don't think GDP has revised down negative much yet, but stuff like unemployment and hiring numbers have been extremely volatile and sometimes revised to complete opposites (strong positive to strong negative numbers) months after the fact.

What is the definition of a recession you’re operating under? The typical definition is two consecutive quarters of negative gdp growth. We’ve not seen that since 4q19 and 1q20, then not since the “Great Recession.”
