and if you now understand the influence of the mainstream media on your own bias, you're on to something. Europe's numbers are clearly recessionary. It's other people's job to make things look good, I'm a realist and look at things as they are.
No shade man. I'm not a fan of europes economic policies either. But at some point you have to reflect whether you're being realistic or just just giving in into compulsive pessimism or whether you're doing clickbait on purpose. Nothing wrong with the latter but at least be honest with yourself.

If you find the description of a recession tendentious, then you are in for a big surprise in the next few years.
But let me ask you another question: instead of spreading accusations here, can you derive anything positive from the eurozone economy? show me what's going well these days

bears have predicted the last 10 out of 2 recessions. They happen every few years - you're not giving any insight whatsoever acknowledging that it will someday happen

Nice trap you're setting up there
We're dominating in aviation industrials. Mistral can almost keep up with american AI companies despite draconian overregulation. All cutting edge chips in the world are made with ASML lithography machines - literally a monopoly in one of the most important industries on earth. The CAC40 is at all time highs. The DAX40 is at all time highs.
It's by far not a rosy picture overall. But of course "anything" positive exists. "anything" is a low bar

if you are seriously presenting me with stock indices as the state of the real economy, then you are just showing that you are conflating liquidity aspects with real economic aspects. think about that point very carefully and think about what we are all writing here about liquidity and central bank policy
