Where would put their money into though? It’s such a weird economy, especially with the expected decrease in younger population.

Before an imminent recession you might want to focus on funds that primarily cover sectors that enjoy steady demand even during crisis, like utilities, consumer staples, healthcare, maybe some hedge against inflation like precious metals. I would avoid tech and luxuries and would definitely avoid crypto also. There is no historical data to show how it would perform during a serious recession (Bitcoin was basically born during the last one) but I doubt it would be pretty.
Stock buybacks and cryptocurrency are ways to circumvent the Fed's monopoly on currency. The US is not a single monetary economy anymore, it's several. None of the economic analysis institutions know work anymore.
We're sailing uncharted waters, all bets are off.
European defense stocks seem like a pretty good bet right now.
Unfortunately "defense" almost always seems like a good bet
