This was an interesting course because 2 quarters have pasted since this course was written. The recession question was a bad question. The point of the section was that nobody knows if we will be in a recession, no recession, a soft landing, or economic sectors in a recession and other sectors not in recession. Also, it needed a date, like end o Q1 2023.

I liked the discussion of the recession and how the economy is increasing uncertainty for everyone; investor, auditor and company.
