Do You See Any Signs of a Recession in the Credit Market?
We don't see any disturbances at all in the actual credit market in Triple B credit spreads. But what we do see is a tightening of lending standards, meaning that they're worsening the conditions.

And when that happens, that's ultimately the recession that most people have been waiting for.
