How long do recessions last?

The good news is that recessions generally haven’t lasted very long. Our analysis of 11 cycles since 1950 shows that recessions have persisted between two and 18 months, with the average spanning about 10 months. For those directly affected by job loss or business closures, that can feel like an eternity. But investors with a long-term investment horizon would be better served looking at the full picture.

Recessions have been relatively small blips in economic history. Over the last 70 years, the U.S. has been in an official recession less than 15% of all months. Moreover, their net economic impact has been relatively small. The average expansion increased economic output by almost 25%, whereas the average recession reduced GDP by 2.5%. Equity returns can even be positive over the full length of a contraction since some of the strongest stock rallies have occurred during the late stages of a recession.

I was pointing out if we have a recession it should not affect us as it seems like 2025 is when TMT will start producing

Sorry mate, i am not here to discuss the technicalities of recession. The rate at which the interest rates have gone up in the past 1 year is unprecedented. Therefore, let's hope we don't even get close to 1980-90s. Because if we do, things will get re-prioritized and all this talk about merits of Green technology will definitely take a back seat.
