Based on the assumption that the Lehman’s shock begun on the 1
Quarter of 2008 in the U.S, we will have several states that have negative
impacts such as Virginia. On the other hand, South Dakota show resilience by
positive growth rates before and after crisis. Even though North Dakota have
positive trend of regional economic growth before crisis, but it showed
declines after crisis. The data size before the crisis = 12, after the crisis =

41, respectively.

Virginia had a sharply declining trend before the Lehman’s shock. This
state was suffered due to the declines in nondurable goods manufacturing
and housing market. In Fig 2, the Southeastern, Great Lake, and West Coast
region shows negative impact from the crisis. The main contributors to their
GRP are goods manufacturing, construction, insurance, and finance (BEA
Report, 2009).
