    ED This week, expect Powell to focus on (negative) labor market momentum to justify a Sept cut.

    The percentage of industries growing jobs (YOY) has fallen below 65%.

    Average recession begins w/ this number just above 60%.

    ...if you now see this, why would you want to own stocks and especially stocks that can experience sharp selloffs when recession hits- anything consumer related, building & construction, commodities/resources, BS tech stocks, banks.

    ....the only time jobs has turned down so sharply without a recession was in the 80s.

    ....we're in a much different world than the one in the 80s.
