JOBOB: Majority of Americans believe US is currently in a recession: poll
A recent poll has found that a majority of Americans believe the US is currently in a recession, citing concerns regarding ongoing inflation and high interest rates.
The survey, conducted by Affirm in June and involving 2,000 adults, found that 59 percent of respondents consider the American economy to be in a recession. Many respondents indicated that they believe the recession began around March 2023 and expect it to persist until the summer of next year.
Inflation and the rising cost of living were cited as the primary reasons for this belief. A significant 68 percent of those surveyed said inflation is negatively impacting their future plans and their ability to afford upcoming purchases. Vishal Kapoor, Senior Vice President of Product at Affirm, commented on the findings, saying, “With confidence in the U.S. economy at a low point, consumers are urgently seeking ways to feel in control of their finances.”
“Amidst these levels of uncertainty and doubt, we believe that the antidote to the current ‘vibecession’ is greater choice and transparency in how people manage their finances,” Kapoor added.
The poll also found that 54 percent of respondents have used or would consider using “buy now, pay later” options, with 45 percent agreeing that such options make it easier to manage their finances.
Officially, the US is not in a recession, which is traditionally defined by economists as two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth. However, this definition has come under scrutiny, particularly when the White House disputed it in 2022 when the economy did, in fact, see two quarters of negative growth.
Regardless of the official status, the fact that a majority of Americans feel the economy is in a recession reflects the challenges faced by the average citizen. A recent CNN poll also highlighted growing concerns, with nearly four in ten Americans worried that their family income may not be sufficient to cover all expenses—a higher percentage than during the 2008 recession.

For storm information specific to your area, please monitor products issued by your national meteorological service. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 800 PM AST (0000 UTC), the center of Hurricane Ernesto was located near latitude 31.0 North, longitude 65.2 West. Ernesto is moving toward the northeast near 13 mph (20 km/h). This general motion is expected to continue with a gradual slowdown beginning early Saturday. An accelerating northeastward motion is then expected late this weekend into early next week. On the forecast track, the center of Ernesto is expected to pass near or over Bermuda Saturday morning and near or east of Newfoundland Monday night. Maximum sustained winds remain near 100 mph (155 km/h) with higher gusts. Some gradual weakening is forecast over the next day or so, though some re-intensification is possible late in the weekend. Ernesto is a large tropical cyclone. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 75 miles (120 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 275 miles (445 km). The Bermuda International Airport recently reported sustained winds of 41 mph (66 km/h) with a gust to 50 mph (81 km/h). A Saildrone (SD-1068) recently reported a sustained wind of 68 mph (111 km/h) and a wind gust of 94 mph (152 km/h). The estimated minimum central pressure is 969 mb (28.62 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Ernesto can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT5 and WMO header WTNT45 KNHC and on the web at hurricanes.gov/text/MIATCDAT5.shtml. WIND: Winds on Bermuda are expected to increase to hurricane force early Saturday. Due to Ernesto's large size and slow motion, strong winds will continue on the island into Saturday night. STORM SURGE: A dangerous storm surge is expected to produce significant coastal flooding on Bermuda in areas of onshore winds. Near the coast, the surge will be accompanied by large and destructive waves. RAINFALL: Ernesto is expected to produce total rain accumulations of 6 to 9 inches or 150 to 225 mm on Bermuda. This rainfall will likely result in considerable life-threatening flash flooding, especially in low-lying areas on the island. SURF: Swells generated by Ernesto are affecting portions of the the Bahamas, Bermuda, and the east coast of the United States. These swells will likely reach portions of Atlantic Canada by late Saturday. Life-threatening surf and rip current conditions are likely in these areas during the next couple of days. Please consult products from your local weather office, and stay out of the water if advised by lifeguards. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 1100 PM AST. $$ Forecaster Cangialosi

Somali migrant who beheaded and stabbed victim 111 times could avoid deportation from Germany
A Somalian migrant who beheaded his victim in a brutal murder that included 111 stabbings may avoid deportation from Germany. Prosecutors said that if the government sent him back to Somalia, he would simply return.
Mursal Mohamed Seid, 24, murdered his 52-year-old flatmate Alex K. in a homeless shelter in Regen in July 2021. He confessed to the killing and told police he thought Alex was possessed by demons that he had to kill, the Daily Mail reported.
Court documents state that Seid stabbed his victim 111 times before decapitating him. The victims’ intestines spilled out due to the severity of the stab wounds.
Seid was confined to the high-security ward of the district hospital in Mainkofen, Bavaria, as he purported to have committed the offense in a schizophrenic delusion.
The German immigration authorities are eager to return him to his homeland of Somalia as soon as possible. However, prosecutors are hesitant to issue a deportation order, as they believe that the criminal would return to Germany regardless, according to Bild.
A few weeks after killing his housemate, the Somalian tried to escape the high-security ward of a Bavaria hospital by hiding in a food cart. Seid attempted a second escape last week and sneaked by his psychologist and intern while watching a Disney movie during a family movie night at the ward.
After eight hours on the run, 100 police officers found him three miles from the cinema.
Prosecutors have been debating his deportation for two years. Senior public prosecutor Oliver Baumgartner told Bild: “In this regard, it was necessary to take into account that the convicted person would be free in his home country and that there is no guarantee that he will be treated properly. A return to Germany was considered possible.”
Seid wrote a letter in February that stated he refused to be deported back to Somalia.
