How often do market corrections lead to a recession in the US?

There have been 60 S&P 500 corrections including the most recent one, according to Deutsche Bank analysis. Historically, in 12% of corrections, a recession had already begun in the previous 12 months. 32% of the time a recession took place within the next 12 months. In 56% of corrections, the US avoided an economic downturn within the next 12 months. In other words, market corrections are only accompanied by a recession ~44% of the time. Can we avoid a recession this time? Source: The Kobeissi Letter
