AP reporter Michelle Price warned on Monday that the hype surrounding Vice President Harris' campaign might be coming back down to earth after stocks plunged again.

The Associated Press' Michelle Price warned during a panel discussion Monday on CNN that the hype around Vice President Harris' candidacy might be coming 'back down to earth' after the U.S. stock market plunged. 'They just a little bit ago this morning, posted the ‘brat’ meme with ‘the stock market is tanking’ in the font,' Price said during a panel discussion on CNN, noting that the Trump campaign was using Kamala Harris memes to mock the vice president. U.S.

's John Berman said Harris needed to be careful to not make the same mistakes President Biden did when talking about the economy in painting 'a super rosy picture when people might not be feeling it.'

weak jobs report and shrinking manufacturing activity in the world's largest economy, coupled with dismal forecasts from the big technology firms, pushed the Nasdaq 100 and Nasdaq Composite into a correction last week. The weak jobs data also triggered what is known as the 'Sahm Rule,' seen by many as a historically accurate recession indicator.

The 'Sahm Rule' stipulates that the economy is in the early stages of a recession when the 3-month moving average of the jobless rate is at least a half-percentage point higher than the 12-month low. Over the past three months, the unemployment rate has averaged 4.13%, which is 0.63 percentage points higher than the 3.5% rate recorded in July 2023, crossing that threshold.
