It’s been almost 18 months since the unprecedented events in the financial markets, better known as ‘recession’, first made headlines. Decreased consumer business, lack of available credit and the increased prices of essentials like healthcare made the times extremely rough for business. Experts are now claiming that this recession is almost over and it’s only a matter of time that things got back to normal. But are we really out of one of the worst economic crises the world has faced since the Great Depression? Or are these mere hollow claims made in a bid to keep the economy buoyant and upbeat?
