I really dont think that lack of growth of the quantity of goods produced for a few quarters is really so big of a deal This is how recession and depression are defined, when gdp simply isnt growing a fraction of a percent quarter over quarter. Is this really a proxy to give insight into everything effecting the general population? The words recession and depression are loaded with so much more than what they actually track, I think just saying them slows down the business spending and lending facilities more than the actual trend of printing slightly lower gdp numbers per quarter.
