Mass layoffs started in 2022, there was no setting for recovery in 2024.


Mass layouts started when the government increased the interest rate to fight inflation. By 2024, inflation was already under control, the interest rate was falling slowly, and companies were starting to hire.


Correlation without causation. In 2024 companies were not starting to hire.
