@Istocks3@SouthwardVernon No it’s not. DEBT is part of the company. The bid is for the whole company’s assets and liabilities. Once the bid succeeds, he pays the debt off separately.
ISM is out today at 46.3, the lowest since May 2020, the month after the COVID recession ended,
ISM started surveying in 1948. As this chart shows, this is the 16th time the ISM has been 46.3 or lower.
12 (75%) of these instances, the economy was either in recession or about to enter a recession.
The other four were:
April 2003
January 1996
April 1967
April 1952
So, not a bad recession indicator, correct 3 out of 4 times.
