Explanation

At the peak of the business cycle, economic activity is at a high point. Businesses generally produce a large amount of goods and services, so high levels of production are characteristic of prosperity. Reduced incomes are more associated with a downturn, while stagnant prices and ambivalence are not defining features of the peak.
