This is my first time being fully invested in a market cycle. I'm seeing >YouTubers saying we're in a recession and it will only get worse from here (UK & US). What do you guys think? And if shtf, Gold/Silver should skyrocket no?

Also, do market guru's always predict doom around the corner, or is this time different?
