I’m torn between cyclical and interest sensitive. I know interest sensitive industries can be affected by price changes, but I think cyclical is the better fit for business cycles.

I feel like I’ve seen a question like this before, and I think it was about how cyclical industries rise and fall with the economy.

I remember studying that defensive industries are less affected by economic downturns, so they probably wouldn’t be the answer here.

I think the cyclical industry is the one that reacts to business cycles, but I'm not entirely sure if it’s the most sensitive to price changes too.
