Economic growth increases the demand for the development of new technology. Only a few businesses produce new technology, but many businesses want to buy new technology. An acceleration of technological change can cause the producers and buyers of new technology to fail.

Businesses that produce new technology and businesses that buy new technology can sometimes fail during periods of economic growth.

This answer is unsupported. We don’t know what “other businesses” are being referred to here in this answer. There could be a type of business that benefits from these economic conditions even more than producers of new technology.

This answer is strongly supported. Since we know that economic growth causes increased demand for new technology, and rapidly developing new technology can cause producers to fail, these businesses may not benefit from economic growth.

This answer is unsupported. We know from the stimulus that economic growth can cause demand for developing new technologies, but we don’t know if the reverse of this relationship is also true.

This answer is unsupported. Saying that these businesses are “most likely” to proper is too strong. We don’t know anything about businesses that don't adopt new technology, so we can't compare.

This answer is unsupported. We only know that economic growth can lead to a risk of failure for some businesses. We don't know anything about business failures during low growth periods, so we can't compare.
