Economic recovery

An economic recovery is the phase of the business cycle following a recession, during which an economy regains and exceeds peak employment and output levels prior to downturn. A recovery period is typically characterized by abnormally high levels of growth in real gross domestic product, employment, corporate profits, and other indicators.

This is a turning point from contraction to expansion and often results in an increase in consumer confidence.

The United States experienced an economic recovery following the 2008 Great Recession. The country's inflation-adjusted median income has not dramatically changed since the end of the presidency of Lyndon Johnson.
