I point out this is: "typically what we've seen prior to past recessions with transportation down." I also noted that on the stock market there is a shift from cyclicals to defensives. "This was the first month since February that the Nasdaq and S&P weren't positive...and it looks like there are cracks in the magnificent seven (leading tech) stocks. The defensive sectors were leading the market instead of cyclicals." We see plenty of opportunities outside of the big tech leadership this year.
