Recession or not?, it doesn't matter, with no uptick rule, market plunges the same?

With no uptick rule when shorting, the market plunges the same as a recession.

When there was the uptick shorting rule, it was harder to short.

Now being easier to short, stocks plunge more, even if there's no recession.

With no uptick rule when shorting, the market plunges the same as a recession.

With no downtick rule when buying, the market explodes the same as a booming economy. Both statements are idiotic.

Hey guys, wake up. Everyone is forecasting a recession to happen (or has already happened as of December): GS, ML, LB, UBS, etc... I can't remember when this last happened that all majors did agree on economic state. Don't you think a recession (at least a mild one) is already priced in the market?
