I look at the market almost daily. Basically, it's my "job" to the extent I have one now.
The widely accepted definition of a recession is not based on the stock market of course. It's dropping because of the Fed, which is a bit odd because it seemed pretty obvious what the Fed would do well ahead of time. I did a fair bit of selling in January, wish I had done more, but what I kept is in my "long term" basket.
