Explain using the model of Aggregate Demand and Aggregate Supply. [1] Consumers in the U.S. read negative economic news and they expect weak future economic growth. [2] Due to the decrease in the price level in the U.S., consumers substitute out of clothes made overseas into clothes made in the US. [3] An increase in the price level leads to less savings, which increases the interest rate. [4] Several European economies go into recession due to the current pandemic.arrow_forward
