More on recovery phase
Consequently, the levels of employment, earnings andproductivity augment steadily in the fiscal system. In theprior phases of the revival stage there is considerableexcess or idle capacity in the fiscal economy so thatproductivity hikes devoid of a proportionate hike in
aggregate costs. However, as phase goes on productivity becomes less
elastic, restricted access, appear with rising costsdeliveries are trickier and plants may have to beextended. Under these stipulations, prices rise.

Recovery - continued The turning point from depression to expansion is termed as Recovery
orRevival Phase.
During the period of revival or recovery, there are expansions andrise in economic activities. When demand starts rising, productionincreases and this causes an increase in investment. There is a steadyrise in output, income, employment, prices and profits. Thebusinessmen gain confidence and become optimistic (Positive). This
increases investments. The stimulation of investment brings about therevival or recovery of the economy. The banks expand credit,business expansion takes place and stock markets are activated.There is an increase in employment, production, income andaggregate demand, prices and profits start rising, and businessexpands. Revival slowly emerges into prosperity, and the businesscycle is repeated.
Thus we see that, during the expansionary or prosperity phase, thereis inflation and during the contraction or depression phase, there is adeflation.

Oil, Commodities Down 25%: Recovery to pick uppace
The fact that oil and all major commodities are down more than25% from about a year ago is an indicator that the recovery inthe Indian economy is set to pick up the pace.
My previous analysis suggested the Indian long-term growth storyis intact and that a recovery is now underway from a short-termslowdown.
Here are some of the latest news and data that reinforce myhypothesis:
Corporate India has posted a robust top-line and bottom-linegrowth of around 20% for the March 2012 quarter. It would beridiculous, nay insane, to consider a 20% bottom-line growth as aslowdown!
FII remain long-term bullish based on equity inflows, with massivenet inflows of moke than $ 7 Bn so far during 2012.

while taking the positives for granted. Kochhars mentor and ICICIBank Chairman K V Kamath has also sounded an optimistic note. Inhis latest letter to ICICI Bank shareholders, Kamath said he isconfident about a robust and sustained (economic) growth overthe medium to long term.

J.P. Morgan upgraded Indian equities to overweight fromneutral, despite acknowledging the risk factors facing theeconomy, encouraged by what it called a number of more positivefactors including historic valuations. I usually dont give much
credence to reports from agencies like S&P, Moodys, GoldmanSachs, Morgan Stanley and most others. However, J.P. Morgan India,under Kalpana Morparia, seems to have got the long-term trendright, even as far back as October 2008 when the markets weremaking a capitulation bottom

Oil, Commodities Down 25%: Recovery to pick uppace
In September 2011, they had the courage to call the IIP numbersmisleading and take a stand that economic growth is not collapsing.Among the major global financial firms, J.P. Morgan is not just the firstout of the blocks in acknowledging the strengths of the India story,but it has also made a bullish call when pretty much every othermajor firm has made a bearish call. That takes a lot of courage in the
murky world of large and influential financial firms.
