Social sentiment on a US recession runs 25 points above market odds — the crowd is far more convinced a recession is coming than bettors are willing to price in, driven largely by surging oil prices, the Iran-US conflict, and Strait of Hormuz disruption fears.

"Goldman's recent hike to 25% US recession odds aligns with the February jobs miss and escalating energy costs from the Iran conflict. At current Brent ~$100, we're not there yet."

Social sentiment on a US recession runs 25 points above market odds — the crowd is far more convinced a recession is coming than bettors are willing to price in. The dominant narrative centers on the Iran-US conflict, surging oil prices past $100/barrel, Strait of Hormuz disruption, and Moody's pushing recession probability near 50%. With Goldman raising odds to 25% and prediction markets at 31-35%, the gap suggests either the crowd is over-extrapolating war fears, or the market has not yet fully priced in the energy shock cascading through the global economy.
