Introduction
What is Recession?
Economic
Recession as stated by economists is the condition in which the economic growth slowdowns and all the elements of economic growth start to fall down in terms of their average measurement. The question is if the economy does not perform for one or two months, then do we call it as a recessionary period. The answer to this is 'No'. A standardized period for making sure that the economy is hit by recession is when the factors of production and the related elements begin to decrease and is constantly decreasing for two or more than two quarters.
The elements that are being referred to here are namely the following:
Gross Domestic Product or the GDP
Tick Tock – Coming Economic Collapse Timeline

I am a firm believer that warning always comes before destruction. The Great Depression didn't just happen all of a sudden. There were certain things that lead up to it. And some of the same things that lead up to the Great Depression are currently going on right now in the American economy.
The first one being many banks failing or going bankrupt. In 1930, over 9000 banks failed. I am not sure of the exact number of banks that have failed during this current economic depression, but I am sure there have been thousands. Of course things are different now because we have the FDIC that insures a certain amount of our money.

Okay everyone has heard the joke: A recession is when your friend loses his job. A depression is when you lose your job.
Definitions:
Economic

Recession
Is a decline in the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for two or more consecutive quarters.
Depression
Is an economic downturn where real GDP declines by more than 10 percent. So you could argue a depression is a severe recession.
What Is an Economic Collapse?
Posted on March 22, 2012 - Filed Under Economic | Leave a Comment
An economic collapse is said to surface in case of a complete breakdown of the regional, territorial and national economic machinery. This situation is featured by an incessant spike in unemployment and bankruptcy being filed by the citizens of the nation. Chronic depression is another major sign of this economic condition. Such crises have been experienced by the world-wide International markets at various points during history; the most recent one being the financial breakdown of 2007. However theories relating to its causes continue to be contended among the Intelligentsia. There can be multiple reasons which can be cited for the economy of a state going kaput and bringing down the other global economies like a pack of dominoes.
Economic Indicators – How to Understand Them
Posted on March 4, 2012 - Filed Under Economic | Leave a Comment
Economic indicators are confusing. On the same day, some of them are positive and show a growing economy while others are negative and reflect a declining economy. How can anyone know where the economy is headed?
The key to understanding economic indicators is whether the indicator is leading, coincident, or lagging.
Economic
All Indicators are Not Created Equal
Economic indicators are like driving in your car. Leading indicators are like looking through the front windshield to see where you're going, Coincident indicators are like looking out the side mirror to show you where you are, and Lagging indicators are like looking in the rearview mirror to see where you have been. The problem comes when you look at all three images and don't know which is forward, sideways, or backwards. Trying to drive with the views garbled would be difficult indeed.

Effects of a Global Economy
If you wish to gain a clearer understanding of the current global economic issues that have facilitated the present recession in the world then it is important to take a look at the history behind it. Only as we assess the trends and their impact on our economic health here and abroad can we get to the truth.
Economic
A number of critics have voiced their opinions about globalization. Some have criticized the policies and cited reasons why they have made the poor poorer and the rich richer. There is some compelling evidence for this position. You can start by examining the current economic recession in the United States. While the middle class is drastically shrinking, the number of billionaires per capita is more than it has ever been. What some call a recession others describe as a massive program of wealth transfer.

If you have not thought about preparing for a recession, now might be the right time. I am not an expert in the future of the economy but, I am an expert in obvious signs around me that things are not getting better, in terms of the economy. Here are some examples:
Gas Prices- Higher, much higher.

Real Estate- More homes on the market, fewer selling, more foreclosures. More builders looking for remodeling jobs, rather than new home construction.
Food Prices- Higher.
Utilities- Much higher, as much as 35% higher.
Health Insurance- 25% higher this year.
The Pharmaceutical Industry in Today’s Economic Recession 2009
Posted on January 19, 2012 - Filed Under Economic | Leave a Comment
As these words are being written down, the world is going through extraordinary times, with a financial crisis not experienced since the world wars. Markets are in turmoils and uncertainty is part of many businesses and industries. Several financial analysis are available for us to read, but the content often difficult to digest. The recession has badly affected many industries who are now desperately seeking help, such as the car industry. But what will be the specific impacts of the economic recession on the biotech and pharmaceutical industry.
The pharmaceutical and health-care industry have historically been relatively immune to economic turndowns, because illness doesn't take a vacation. Yet, with the ongoing recession, financial support will be reduced. Therefore, like in other industries, it is expected that the most affected by the reduced availability in funding will be the early stage biotech and pharmaceutical companies who need funding. But is there more to come?
Understanding Economic Cycles (Business Cycles)
Posted on January 10, 2012 - Filed Under Economic | Leave a Comment
Definition from Wikipedia.org.:The business cycle or economic cycle refers to the fluctuations of economic activity about its long term growth trend. The cycle involves shifts over time between periods of relatively rapid growth of output (recovery and prosperity), and periods of relative stagnation or decline (contraction or recession). These fluctuations are often measured using the real gross domestic product. Despite being named cycles, these fluctuations in economic growth and decline do not follow a purely mechanical or predictable periodic pattern.
