The characteristic that is NOT associated with a depression is:

d. rapidly rising GDP.

In a depression, GDP typically falls or remains stagnant rather than rising rapidly. The other options—weak consumer sales, business failures, and prolonged high unemployment—are indeed characteristics of a depression.
