But if they're measuring against 2 years that aren't normally sustainable, then they have flawed data...that's like Twitch streamers complaining that the platform's average viewer count is massively down now that nobody is home all day every day to sit on Twitch and watch content. Well, of course the viewership is down, people went back to their normal lives again.

A decline in cardboard box sales to companies after record highs in 2020 and 2021 during the pandemic when everyone went nuts buying things online while stuck at home seems logical to me and not a valid indicator of a recession...it's a valid indicator that we're no longer stuck at home during a pandemic...

All mainstream media articles are a mouth piece for government misinformation and disinformation.

Do you own research and seek out the other hidden indicators like long queues on food banks, more realtor estate agent sign boards for sale or to let, small foot flow of people shopping, more items sold on auctions, count homeless people and etc.
