A fourth chart tab with two lines shows income growth rates by firm size. Income growth for firms with fewer than 250 employees dips sharply during the 2008 global financial crisis and again during the COVID 19 pandemic in 2020, spikes in 2021–2023, and eases back toward more typical levels thereafter. The income growth rate for firms with 250 employees or more is less volatile but follows a similar path. The data for this chart are available to be downloaded.
