We Don't "Predict" the Future. We Calculate the Present.
Most investors rely on lagging indicators (headlines) or gurus (feelings). Recessionist Pro relies on Math.
The Bond Market
Yield curve inversions and normalization. Credit spreads and liquidity stress signals.
The Labor Market
Rate-of-change in unemployment. Sahm Rule tracking. Jobless claims momentum.
The Credit Market
High-yield spreads. Bank lending conditions. Consumer credit stress indicators.
What AI Does (and Doesn't Do)

The math is deterministic. The data is auditable. The AI is just the narrator.

Tom Spark
Creator of Recessionist Pro
For a decade, my job wasn't predicting the future—it was auditing software, tearing apart marketing claims, and exposing what actually works versus what's noise.
I realized the financial commentary space had the same problem: too many opinions, too little instrumentation. So instead of adding another "macro take," I built what I wanted as an investor.
I'm not asking you to trust me. I'm asking you to trust the measurement.
This Isn't Competing With Other Finance Products
It's competing with the chaos in your head.
The right question isn't "Do I agree with this?"
It's "Does this reduce my uncertainty?"
What Is Your "Blind Spot" Costing You?
The biggest losses don't come from the crash—they come from panic-selling at the bottom or missing the recovery. This dashboard is designed to prevent both.
