Talk:Early 2000s recession

Mering Clinton Recession into Early 2000s recession

Proposing merger of content, though the basic content is duplicated. I think there's some references that should make it into this article, but I wanted some other eyeballs on the articles before doing anything. mordel (talk) 20:24, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

A reference was made about the Council of Economic Advisers under Bush making a move to change the beginning of the recession was seen as politically motivated. It used BusinessWeek magazine as a source, but the cite was to an editorial commentary and not to an article. The reference also did not say who saw the move as politically motivated, so the sentence was removed. If a future editor wishes to add a similar sentence it should be from a reputable and unbiased article and not an editorial and/or commentary.RickW7x2 (talk) 10:42, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

introrewrite

I placed the tag because the intro fails to define the recession, or indeed what a recession is or the time period during which this one existed (exists?). --Thinboy00's sockpuppet alternate account 21:31, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Recession ended in 2005

I believe only in January 2005, right when George W. Bush began his second term in office had the U.S. Department of Commerce announced the early 2000's recession has officially ended. You might better explain the financial impact the terrorist attacks of 9/11 had on the national and global economies, from Oct. 2001 to Dec. 2004, there was a substantial decline in economic growth and at times, very small positive economic growth to taper off by the end of 2003. Alike the early 1990's recession, this was also referred to a "mild" recession to most economic analysists. In part of the beginnings of the real estate boom from 2004 to 2007 that was profitable and the mortgage loan industry before the 2008 financial collapse brought on a larger repeat of the "mild" 2001 economic slowdown. Only the US enjoyed a slight recovery, but western Europe took longer to sort things out and mid 2000's spikes in oil prices benefited the Persian gulf states. But Japan recovered from the record 12-year recession, the longest of any developed country since the end of World War II or surpassed the late USSR in transition from communist to capitalist economics in the early 1990's. + 71.102.2.206 (talk) 12:11, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

insufficient info

The article is too superficial to understand. The root cause of the recession should be explained for it to be effective. A much detail explanation regarding the financial conditions at that period and the political status is also worth to be included. Anyhow nice article —Preceding unsigned comment added by Naveensakhamuri (talk • contribs) 11:24, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

Recession 2000s → Early 2000s recession – Moved without discussion by User:Markdask in February. The current title is unidiomatic and lends itself to confusion with the Great Recession. Raymie (t • c) 19:07, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

I should have proposed the move; my bad. Raymie is also right to point to the likely confusion with the 2008/9 recession so the title needs to change.

I stick with my original reason for the move though that, for ease of access, the subject should be the first word, as is the case with other recessions listed. The format Recession of might be a little too specific in this instance though, as it was a creeping recession, so I would suggest "Recession (early 2000s)". Mark^Dask 20:25, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

@Markdask: Looking at the members of Category:Recessions, we have 1973–1975 recession, 1998–2002 Argentine great depression, Depression of 1882–1885, Depression of 1920–1921, Early 1980s recession, Early 1990s recession, Recession of 1937–1938, Recession of 1949, Recession of 1953, Recession of 1958, Recession of 1960–1961, and Recession of 1969–1970. So there is some real variance in the article titles here. I can't say "Recession (early 2000s)" matches any of them, though. Raymie (t • c) 20:34, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

I searched "Recession" and of course only saw the "of" entries. How then is one supposed to search, for example, the 1998-2002 Argentine Great Depression? The intro says the recession was primarily an EU/US event during 2000-2001 so perhaps "Recession of 2000-2001" to conform with the already easy-to-access entries.

We might then consider moving those other entries that begin with a date, that likely most readers will not even consider searching for. Mark^Dask 21:12, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
