Put simply, while the stock market watches the economy, the two don't always move in lockstep. If investors see that companies are still bringing in profits, and stocks don't appear too expensive, they'll risk an investment even if the economy hasn't gotten an all-clear on the recession watch.
But history shows that stocks can keep rising until a few months before a recession officially starts, as they did until October 2007, two months before the Great Recession swamped the economy — and the stock market. S&P 500 index funds have returned more than 20% this year, and the largest bond mutual fund has returned nearly 8% — yet many of those clients think they've lost money this year, Roland said.

Russia. Racist. Recession. Is there a pattern here 🇺🇸🇺🇸
The major players in the market know 'who' controls trump, that he is playing/gaming/floating all markets for personal gain. Alot of those preselected and willing to play along are making a fortune.
Only the media promotes a recession. Did you see the retail sales report? Guess not.
