sustained recession Explanation: "A recession is defined by a fall of a country's [[Gross National Product]] in two successive quarters. Combined with [[inflation]] this process is known as [[stagflation]]. A sustained recession is known as an '''economic depression'''."

In the \'90s, the devastation of Southern California\'s aerospace and defense industry dragged the state into a severe recession, while the Bay Area went through a milder, shorter downturn\" Taken from: http://www.ucan.org/law_policy/energydocs/Recession.htm -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-07 16:42:08 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- and so the story goes with another 351 hits on google HTH |
