D. Rising Debt

Decreased consumer confidence led to a slowdown in consumer spending. Consumer confidence has a big impact on consumers’ spending activity and is a big indicator of the overall health of the economy. When consumer confidence is low, firms will not be able to sell and as a result will default on their loans. Consumers will be left jobless since firms will fail which will further lead to people failing to repay their loans.
