You can't really have a recession in game because it's based on investments and loans and GDP (which are not in ffxiv)

So you're probably thinking of deflation
Not really! The game has no item decay system like in real life! that is your true GDP.

Crafting nets nothing now and after 2.1 it will become nearly impossible to make a decent coin! Gil will be constantly taken out of the game more than the server can replenish from housing, repairs, transport and other stuff.
