Why recession happen?

Short term answer: recession happened because a lot of money disappeared when bad loans defaulted. Long term answer: recession happened because of supply side economic…s. Lending creates money. You put money in the bank, the bank lends it out, for example by writing a mortgage, the borrower has the money but you still have the same amount of money in the bank. The bank sells the mortgage, the buyer exchanges money for a financial asset, therefore the buyer's wealth does not change. The bank can now lend the money again creating more wealth. When the mortgage defaults the last owner of the mortgage loses wealth. The borrower also loses wealth because the house goes to the bank but the value of the house is now less than the mortgage (because mortgages are defaulting all around and house prices have dropped), so the borrower still owes money. If many mortgages default the economy loses money. That is, money disappears. We still have the same resources, but we no longer have enough money to transfer all the resources from producer to user, so some resources stand unused. That includes workers, factories, raw materials and consumer goods in stores, all waiting for money that isn't there any more. The long term question is why there were so many bad loans. The long term answer is that "trickle down" policies took money from consumers and handed it to investors. Investors will invest in production only when consumers have the money to buy the product. If consumers don't have enough money to encourage productive investment, investors turn to financial investments to extract money from other investors. Or else they spend the money on things like art works, with the result that art prices soar. A thriving economy works on "trickle up," not "trickle down." Workers get paid, and then as consumers they buy stuff from retailers. The money they pay the retailers goes partly to the retailer's profit, partly to workers and partly to wholesalers. The money paid to wholesalers goes partly to the wholesaler's profit, partly to workers and partly to producers. The money paid to producers goes partly to the producer's profit, partly to workers and partly to suppliers of raw materials. At each step a part goes back to the workers to go around again, and another part goes to investors to be reinvested. The process is driven by consumers buying. If consumers can't buy, nobody invests and nobody works. Why the recession? Because we moved from a productive economy to a "service economy," from an economy that made and sold goods and services to an economy that shuffled money around. (MORE)

How recession started?

There is strong answer to the question that How recession is started?. Ans:When the financial and credit system breaks the natural process then recession happens. What really… recession means? some economists are saying recession happens due to slow down in economy others are saying recession is due to mortgage loans or over spending. I particularly believe in the fact that before start of recession in Dec 2007 in US every thing was going normal but the question is how recession comes from?.The GDP numbers were also great. Recession comes from the developed economics of world like US and U.K. where the people believe in mortguage loans, credit payments & excessive expense on living. Moreover economy of developing countries are much more depend on develop economics and the impact of recession was clearly seen in developing economics also like Asian countries. So following steps required to be taken by the developing economics to avoid recession : maintain aggreate demand of goods and services, don't be depend on other countries for import & export, disallow FDI's they will take part of our profit, For some instance FDI's will give jobs but in recession many professionals lost their jobs due to concentration of MNC's in India, make strong our own infrstructure for agriculture, industry & services, give priority to savings which would help in recession, rather to go for job try to become enterprenuer, good fiscal policy of country. Countries like India & China will likely face recession because of own their domestic cunsumption (Large population). I pray to god that we will never see recession in future. Thanks & Regards Dinesh dtgabhane@rediffmail.com Greed and indulgence. You see, as long as money is made by selling goods and/or services, it is good. The trends of making money out of money can never really sustain for a longer period. Everything in the system needs correction, once the system is off so the equilibrium and that's the law. You keep buying, I keep buying and our neighbour keeps buying eyeing profits, what will happen? The profits start reducing (because of distribution of profits among all stake holders) and after a little while of reduction (which is a gag before the strike), the bulls dies and the bear hugs you. See petrol for example. Just because we have petrol available in abundance, we keep using our vehicle. As the petrol reserve keeps diminishing, the prices keep going upwards and lesser number of people can afford petrol. The situation continues worsening and at a point, there's no more petrol for anybody's use. Petrol and Money, the key difference being petrol is consumed for personal convenience in commuting and money is spent to make more money to eventually buy pleasures otherwise unaffordable.
