One story was written by Reuters US, one by Reuters Japan. Could simply be that Japan (like, say, the UK) defines it as 2Q negative GDP growth.

Fair enough.
So, let's stay with one reporter. The economics reporter for Politico, Ben White:
"IOW, ignore what I said two years ago, it's 'vexing'."
My point is simple. You're right in that what defines a recession is more complex than simply two bad quarters, according to NEBR. Why haven't I been told that, until now?
Either Ben White is ignorant about what a recession is, or he was ignorant about what a recession is. In either case, how is it that he does economics for Politico?

It would probably seem parsimonious to most people that verbal framing to support a political side is something people do, when they care about political sides. Reality, meet observer. Observer, meet reality.

If perception is reality in politics, 65% of Americans do not agree with the Resident or Jon.

Huge pop in the stock market after the hike. Let’s see how the market reacts tomorrow. If memory serves, the previous hike was received by immediate enthusiasm in stocks, followed by a crash the next day.

Today's increase in the US stock market was 100% due to President Biden. Tomorrows crash is due to things beyond his control. 555

Yeah. What pisses me off is that, for all these decades, all these "experts" have tossed out the "R-word" to mean two quarters of contraction.
Never, did the talking heads say what they're saying now - "Wait a minute, that's not really what a recession is. You didn't hear us right
two years, five years, twenty years, 32 years,40 years ago. Why weren't you paying attention, pleb?" -

As heard on the radio...
Today, the same party that has trouble defining what a woman is, cannot define what a recession is.

Logic and reason and clarity in communication have become political weaknesses for the left. At which point, the Party of Science and Virtue (tm) handwaves them away. At least Trump isn't president.

Okay, 4% increase in two days is due to President Biden. Future decreases are due to other things.
