The crashing stock market became a key contributor to this crisis. With World War I coming to a close, a new generation formed in the United States. It was filled with enthusiasm, confidence, and optimism.

Beginning on October 29, 1929, there was a stock market crash in the United States which was a significant turning point because it halted the considerable economic success from the roaring 1920s, leading to a nationwide depression. This event took place during the presidency of Herbert Hoover, and it resulted in a drastic change of the United States’ political, economic, and social structure. This event also spurred the interest of many political figures to try to save the economy including Franklin Delano Roosevelt who issued many reforms for the protection of the people and to restore the vitality of the nation.

The slide continued through the summer of 1932, when the Dow closed at 41.22, its lowest value of the twentieth century, 89 percent below its peak.

Black Tuesday) By 1933, when the Great Depression reached its nadir, some 13 to 15 million Americans were unemployed and nearly half of the country’s banks had failed. Though the relief and reform measures put into place by Roosevelt helped lessen the worst effects of the Great Depression in the 1930s, the economy would not fully turn around until after 1939, when World War II kicked American industry into high gear. The American economy entered an ordinary recession during the summer of 1929, as consumer spending dropped and unsold goods began to pile up, slowing production. At the same time, stock prices continued to rise, and by the fall of that year had reached levels that could not be justified by anticipated future earnings.
