What typically happens to non farm payrolls the pmi indicator, and housing starts at the onset of a recession in the united states?

I believe the answer is: Nonfarm payrolls go down, the PMI indicator goes DOWN, the housing starts goes down.

During the recession, many businesses would close down its operation and many people would lose their job.

Because of this, the complied numbers of goods produced by company would also decreased (which make nonfarm payrolls go down) , people would make less business purchase due to lack of money (which cause pmi indicators to goes down), and the housing would starts to goes down since there would be less people that have jobs to afford it.

c is the correct answer.
