KEY POINTS
The risk of a recession is rising, and the main threat to the economy the Trump administration’s ongoing trade war, according to a survey of a panel of business economists.
The results of the survey, conducted the week of Sept. 9-16, come as many analysts see warning signs in the latest U.S. economic indicators.
