NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) — More than four out of 10 Americans say the economy is in a serious recession, a belief that has grown stronger within the past few weeks, according to a poll released Thursday.
A CNN/Opinion Research Corp. poll of 1,096 Americans conducted earlier this week found the percentage of people who believe the economy is in a serious recession has grown to 42 percent from 32 percent in mid-October.
Overall, 89 percent of those polled believe the nation is in some form of recession — serious, moderate or mild. That’s up from 76 percent in mid-October, a few weeks before the election.
