How often did the economy show strong signs of recession but didn’t happen?


Beginner investor here, been in the market for ~8 years now. I remember before COVID, everyone was screaming that a recession is due but we were in a bull market for quite a bit of time.

Now there are concerns of recession again, and with strong signs: current inflation rate, low unemployment, much lower productivity and output where you hear about specific/personal experiences from their work, lowered guidance from a lot of company earnings, and etc.

I guess recession WILL happen sometime in the future, but how many times did the economy show signs of recession but it took a while before it actually happened?
