Wat? Macroeconomic observations don't individually track every single microeconomic occurrence and assign a root cause that "Bob did it". There are many possible factors leading to recession but no singular root cause because it's macroeconomic, some include:

- OXPC: Over-expansion of productive capacity

- Contraction of credit

- Contraction of demand

- Knock-on effects of layoffs harming other sectors
