It is time to talk about a global recession. The classic signs are on the increase. The stock markets collapse, and the ocean goes back and interest rates fall. The industry has supply problems, which results in the foreseeable future to a loss of production. Tourism is faced with cancellations and the planes are empty. All scenarios, as we know from past crises, such as those during the outbreak of Sars at the beginning of the century.
