Strengthen- A recession is not caused

by veenu08 » Sun Oct 06, 2013 3:10 am
A recession is not caused by any economic force
other than a nationwide loss of confidence. If the
economy is perceived as being unstable, banks are
conservative in lending money, investors take fewer
risks, and hence economic growth is slowed.

Which of the following, if true, would most
strengthen the argument above?

A recession is severely affected by the response
of the Federal Reserve's setting of
interest rates.

A recession can be brought on by the failure of
a major bank that had been loaning money.

Slowed economic growth is not the only result
of a recession.

When investors begin taking greater risks it is
enough to stimulate economic growth.

It is a fallacy to assume that economic growth
is necessary for economic stability.

D for me
You can, for example never foretell what any one man will do, but you can say with precision what an average number will be up to!
