recession A+ Class
A recession is a modest downturn in the level of economic activity. Technically, this is indicated by two consecutive quarters of negative economic growth by the GDP.
An economic depression is a sustained, long-term downturn in economic activity in one or more economy. An obvious example is the U.S. Great Depression.
The paradox of thrift refers to the idea that if everyone saves more money during an economic downturn, it can actually harm the economy as a whole by reducing overall spending, leading to decreased demand for goods and services, which can further exacerbate the economic downturn. In other words, what may be good for individuals in the short term (saving more) can have negative consequences for the economy as a whole.
