Question 3 of 5
3. Question
1 pointsIndia’s economy is showing decisive signs of a ‘V-shaped’ recovery in 2021. What does ‘V-shaped’ recovery mean?
Correct
-In V-shaped recovery the economy quickly recoups lost ground and gets back to the normal growth trend-line. V-shaped recovery is witnessed when an economy suffers a sharp economic decline followed by a strong recovery.
-The Z-shaped recovery is the most-optimistic scenario in which the economy quickly rises like a phoenix after a crash. It more than makes up for lost ground (think revenge-buying after the lockdowns are lifted) before settling back to the normal trend-line, thus forming a Z-shaped chart.
-A U-shaped recovery is a scenario in which the economy, after falling, struggles and muddles around a low growth rate for some time, before rising gradually to usual levels.
-A W-shaped recovery is a dangerous creature — growth falls and rises, but falls again before recovering yet again, thus forming a W-like chart.
-The L-shaped recovery is the worst-case scenario, in which growth after falling, stagnates at low levels and does not recover for a long, long time.Incorrect
