How often do market corrections lead to a recession in the US Research
  • Recession Link: 44% correlation between corrections and recessions.
  • No Recession: In the majority of cases (56%), markets stabilized.
  • Watchlist: Yields, liquidity, valuations, inflation, and Powell’s policy stance are critical indicators.

📉 Yields & Earnings Pressure: Rising yields are compressing valuations, particularly for growth stocks. If earnings guidance holds steady, markets may find relief. If not, expect prolonged volatility.

Corrections can offer opportunities but come with risks. Deutsche Bank emphasizes evaluating forward-looking indicators over reacting solely to price movements.
