Goldman Sach’s Chief Economist Jan Hatzius points to the global economy having missed a bullet, the threat of recession might just be over. Though growth is slow, Goldman’s activity indicator for February shows an increase compared to the December and January data which prompted many to call “recession.” One of the most recent harbingers of global financial doom is George Maris of asset management firm Janus Henderson. Maris says a recession is a “clear near-term risk.” Hedge fund titan Ray Dalio, speaking in Davos at the end of January, also feared a global economic slowdown.
