WASHINGTON—President Biden played down the likelihood of a recession during a television interview Tuesday, and said if there is one it would be “very slight.”

“I don’t think there will be a recession. If it is, it will be a very slight recession. That is, we’ll move down slightly,” Mr. Biden said during a CNN interview. He later said: “Look, it’s possible. I don’t anticipate it.”
