I have a confession: I failed the CFA Level II exam the first time I sat for it. It sucked. Like, really bad. Really, really bad. Back then, they only gave the CFA Level II exam once per year, so I had to wait until the next June to retake it. Today, more dates are available to take the exams, but the painful lessons I learned from my journey through the CFA program are still applicable today if you want to pass the CFA exams.

Many forecasters, including our own economists, are expecting a US recession in 2023, driven by the rapid and ongoing hiking cycle initiated by the US Federal Reserve as it attempts to get a grip on persistently high inflation. As the US economy slows, with housing sales down 30-35% from their peak and increasing reports of layoffs, some are questioning whether the record-setting pace of hikes is a policy mistake that will make a recession inevitable.
