pressures. Prices were observed to increase slightly. Although the current statistics are insightful, I will explain my view of the longer term trends in the U.S. economy through three primary lenses: GDP growth, unemployment, and inflation. The first area I will examine is GDP growth. Since the Great Recession, the U.S. Economy has been marked by stagnant growth. On average, from 2010 to 2016, the U.S. GDP grew at 2.01%, which is 1.74% less than during previous post-recessionary expansions

Introduction The United States economy experienced a recession starting in December 2007 and ending in June 2009 as reported by the National Bureau of Economic Research. The employment market was directly impacted as evidenced by the growth in unemployment rate. Employers reduced staffing to cut costs and protect profit margins.

the United States economy doing well since the Great Recession? It is, according to economic data. I base my argument on the answers to three states concerning the health of the macroeconomy. The first goal is that of full employment. Full employment is a state in the economy where virtually all who are willing and able to work are employed. The second goal focuses on economic growth, or the growth of our GDP. This is the value of all finished goods and services produced in the United States in a

The current United States recession began in 2008 which greatly impacted the construction industry. A recession occurs when a county experiences zero or negative economic growth over a period of time. The current recession we are experiencing can be attributed to the many housing foreclosures and excess housing inventory during this period. The housing market crash affected the entire United States economy and caused a negative economic growth. The recession impacted the economy by causing unemployment

Abstract A recession is full-proof sign of declined activity within the economic environment. Many economists generally define the attributes of a recession are two consecutive quarters with declining GDP.

Since the advent of the subprime crisis in 2007 that it is commonly believed to have led to the Great recession and to the present global financial crisis, these issues have been subject to much research.

The Great Recession of 2007-2012, of which several countries are still recovering, including the United States and United Kingdom, shows great similarity to the Japanese Recession of the 1990s.
