Arecessionisaprolongedperiodoftimewhenanation'seconomyisslowingdown,orcontracting;Suchaslowdownischaracterizedbyanumberofdifferenttrends,including:

-Peoplebuyinglessstuff

-Decreaseinfactoryproduction

-Growingunemployment

-Slumpinpersonalincome

-Anunhealthystockmarket

-Bytheconventionaldefinition,thisslow-downhastocontinueforatleastsixmonthstobeconsideredarecession.

Thisdefinitionreallyraisesmorequestionsthanitanswers.Whatdoesitmeanfortheeconomytoslowdown?Whydoesthishappen?Andwhatexactlyis"theeconomy"?

PeopletalkabouttheU.S.economyasanindependententity,butitisactuallytheresultofmillionsofpeople'sactions.Youcanunderstandthebasicideaoftheconnectionbetweenpeople'sactionsandtheoveralleconomybylookingatonlyafewbasicconcepts:producers,consumers,markets,supplyanddemand.

ProducersandConsumers

Broadlyspeaking,anation'seconomyistheproductionandconsumptionofgoodsandservicesinthatnation.Anybodyproducingorconsumingthingsinacountryplayssomeroleintheeconomy.

Productionandconsumptionareintertwined.Inorderforpeopletoconsumethings,someonehastoproducethosethings.Andinordertoproducethings,youneedtoconsumethings(youneedtoconsumenaturalresourcesandpeople'slabor,forexample).

Markets

Inamarketeconomy,oramodifiedmarketeconomysuchastheU.S.economy,productionandconsumptionareconnectedinvarious"markets."Amarketissimplyaplacewhereconsumerscangotobuythingsfromproducersandproducerscangotosellthingstoconsumers.

Asyoucansee,almosteverybodyisbothaproducerandaconsumeractinginmorethanonemarket.Ifyouhaveajob,youareaproduceroflabor.Wheneveryougoshopping,youareaconsumerofgoods.

SupplyandDemand

Theultimategoalofproducersistomakemoney—tobringinmoremoneythantheyspentproducingtheproduct.Consumersmaywanttosatisfytheirwantsandneedsbybuyingproducts,ortheymaybuyproductsinordertomakemoney(byresellingtheproductsorbyusingtheproductstoproduceotherproducts).Inanycase,consumersgenerallywanttopayaslittleforgoodsandservicesastheycan.
