  • The most devastating stock market crash in the history of the United States;
    Its from my favorite documentary by PBS - New York.
    This particular part about Wall Street crash of 1929 is from episode 5 of the series with title: Cosmopolis
    there are lots of archive photos, footages and drawings throughout the series and in my opinion it was great work done with finding them.
    series website:
    www.pbs.org/wnet/newyork/serie...
    "Archival shoots took place at various historical and cultural institutions, including the New-York Historical Society, the Museum of the City of New York, and the Library of Congress, and focused on the filming of particularly rare or large-scale archival prints, lithographs, maps, and photographs"

    the crash happened before America understood what budgeting meant. Meaning : hundreds of thousands of people were barrowing money to spend on things they didn't need and they were slowly paying it back a little at time with what they earned from factory jobs. When the factories were closed people couldn't pay back the companies they were buying from so those companies were forced out of business and when that happened stocks went so far down that the market crashed.

  • @rayandreina
    @rayandreina 10 лет назад +27

    The people hit hardest were those who borrowed most of the stocks' book value; only to have to pay it back to their creditors, but couldn't (when the stocks crashed) -- thus losing essentially everything! To quote Shakespeare: "Neither a borrower, nor a lender be." From Hamlet, Act I, Scene III -- from a soliloquy by Polonius. He knew!

    lessons iv learned, never trust economist, never trust bankers, never trust the newspapers/media, never trust government, never invest in paper or virtual things that do not exist in hopes of profit. Its kinds ironic how history keeps repeating itself, just watching this video reminds me of current day, how we are told that everything is fine and nothing will happen. But sooner or later shit will hit the fan, and i hope im prepared for it as history has taught me.

    • @manictiger
      @manictiger 6 лет назад

      Better lesson: never invest.
      I have two asset classes:
      The ones I trade and the ones I keep in my bomb shelter.
      One loses value over time but will hold value if the USD permanently loses value (or worse, everything above ground is decimated, conventionally, nuclear-based or naturally).
      The other gains value, regardless of the price-action of the market, but would not hold value if the USD permanently loses value.
      I'm learning how to short right now because I can't find good deals on stocks.
      If it all comes crashing down, I will make a boatload.
      If the market recovers (as it has every time before), I will have all sorts of good deals to buy.
      I will likely emerge a hundred millionaire.

      It's the fuckin' FED and bankers pulling this shit. They've turned the stock market indexes into nothing but a pure ponzi. The fundamentals are far worse than before the '29 crash. No one born before the 1980's has ever seen a true bear market like the run from 1968 to 1982. The next crash in the indexes of at least 75 percent will be followed by a long sideways movement in stocks probably twice that long or about 30 years

    • @SteelersRule1011
      @SteelersRule1011 8 лет назад +11

      +dosduros Actually, not even close to as big. The reason 1929 was so bad was because there were no regulations, no FDIC, you could get ridiculous loans with no money down, the Federal Reserve didn't do anything. 2008 is about as bad as it could possibly get at this point.

    • @lrmcatspaw1
      @lrmcatspaw1 8 лет назад +2

      +SteelersRule1011 In 2008 we had regulations and FDIC and FED. Still it got very bad, and some people dont think its getting any better (me included).
      You can still make trillion dollar bets with billion reserves, so.... well we will see.

    • @SteelersRule1011
      @SteelersRule1011 8 лет назад +4

      dosduros 2008 was bad, but not even remotely close to as bad as 1929. Without the FDIC, when banks fail, the depositors lose all of their money, and then people have no money to spend, and then buisnesses lose money due to a decreasing number of buyers, and then they lay off workers or cut wages, and then the workers have less money to spend, and it snowballs. The FDIC insurance of 250,000 per person and the FED's ability to give easy credit (lender of last resort) stops banks from failing, which softens the effects of a crash. And remember, in 1929, the market lost 30 billion in 2 days. In today's money, that's 416 billion. In two days. Two days, 416 billion dollars. We might lose a couple trillion in another crash over the period of a year or two, but it doesn't matter if we have trillions more in reserves, trillions in income, and trillions in easy credit. As long as the FED and FDIC exist, we will never have another crash to the level of 1929.

      If the FED and bankers had of left the market indexes alone they would have equaled or surpassed the 89 percent loss from the top to bottom way back from the initial '29 crash. Anyone in stocks today will be working until the day they die because they never learned anything from the '29 crash.

    Many people at that time used the credit system, in which when they would buy something they couldn't afford they would give a little bit of their money from their pay to pay for that item, but when many people began to lose their jobs they were not able to pay for the items they bought and when the items were not payed for the companies lost money, which became worse and worse leading up to Black Saturday and lasted a whole decade.

    October 28: Dow Jones closed at 260.64.
    October 29: The DJIA closed at 230.07.
    All-time low (at that time): 198.60, which was hit on November 13, 1929.

    This is valuable lesson to learn from. When people "follow the crowd" in the stock market it causes booms and busts, and when there are busts it causes the big corporations to close their businesses down, which in means millions of people everywhere lose their jobs. There are many other factors, but that is the grand picture of how a stock market crashes, it is 100 percent psychology.

    The parallels of 1929 to 2022: 1) sales were down; 2) The economy had started to cool the year before - and this is the biggest in my opinion - 3) The Wall street economy started to disconnect from the real economy. This fueled speculation.
    THEORY: Peoples savings/debt fueled the 1928 stock market and people's savings and future debt fueled the 2022 stock market through qe. Just a theory, but if true we are living with a false positive in 2022 very much like the false positive of 1928. One thing we need to be sure to see - if 1928 had clear warning signs most people did not see them until it was too late to do anything about it. 2022 does have some warning signs. Let's start with $30,000,000,000,000 plus in debt.

    The origins of the current financial crisis start with the housing bubble which essentially pumped us out of the tech bubble's recession after 9/11. The housing bubble originates in the mid 90s where people were making lots of money on the stock market right before it began to bubble. People wanted to buy houses. 'Cause housing supply is fixed in the short run, major investment went into it. When the construction finished, the markets realized the tech companies were overvalued and pulled out

    The stock market was over inflated with money that investors didn't even have. They were too eager to get part of the rumored wealth, so that they invested money that they borrowed from lenders.

    Although history repeats itself, I believe the next drastic history on the scale of the 1929 crash will be one that we cannot think of.
    Perhaps we stay in a bear market down for 20 years. Or maybe the same substantial fall will happen to the upside. Maybe we go up the same amount we had fell in 1929. Everyone who shorted stocks today or sold will be jumping off roofs. Maybe the Nasdaq gets to 6000 tomorrow.
    My point is...it's going to be something unimaginable at this moment.

    On Monday, Oct 19 1987, the DJIA fell 22.61% -- this is equivalent to the Oct 28 & 29th 1929 percentage losses combined. However, the economy was strong when this debacle occurred, and there was not even a mild recession in 1988.

    The stock market crash was not the CAUSE of the great depression. It was simply the final spark. Just like now the main causes of the new recession goes back to 9/11, then the Iraq war, gas prices, irresponsible loans, debt, higher taxes and inflation. I want to know where the depression STARTED.

    @MegaCreativekid Yeah, but the reason it got to that is because we are totally dependent on the federal reserve, and when it began to show it wouldn't work too well, the recession happened. If we didn't become so dependent on the federal reserve, this problem may have been avoided

    You're lucky I do my history assignment about this. ;)
    Because factories but continued to produce, but everyone had everything, there was nothing sold. People were dismissed, bought nothing and therefore were more people dismissed and went more companies bankrupt. Europe was finished with the reconstruction, so there was no export annymore.

    Easy. Everybody down to the shoeshine boy was invested in the stock market and was investing borrowed money.
    In order for their bets to pay off, new buying in excess of existing buying had to take place. Problem was there were no new people to take loans and "invest" so the market was bound to crash anyway. On top of that of course there were some real smart people that realized the state of things and sold their shares and began betting on a market crash too- they made fortunes.

    ...And boom we're in the early 2000s recession. As with any economic contraction, the markets began to readjust to closer to their true values. During these times, there is a uncertainty and lose of confidence, so investment falls. The FED cut rates to battle unemployment. Coincidentally, there happened to be excess housing stock which was very cheap. Because borrowing was cheap, investors saw housing as a safe heaven in market of uncertainty recovering from over valued tech stocks.

    That example is similar the when dentists used to call dental crowns (caps) 'permanent restorations'. Well, they were not really permanent, but instead wore out, etc. Then people would come in and complain that the dentist said they were 'permanent'. Now denstists call them 'final restorations'.

    So when all the speculators "sold off" at once on black Tuesday, who exactly were the buyers?
    Did the concept of short selling exist back in the 1920's? Because if it did, they would have made a bundle.

    And just like the shoe shiner at 2:40, same thing happened to real estate in 2006.
    I started selling all my properties when not only; people were jumping all over bidders back going 15% higher than asking price,;but also because I was seeing people who were poor getting half million dollar homes.
    And then POOF. Real Estate was done.

  • @jrs89
    @jrs89 14 лет назад

    Employment continued to lag behind, so the FED continued to cut and borrowing got even cheaper. Housing prices began to rise which induced speculators. Appraisers were not independent; that had the incentive to overvalue property to continue getting business from banks and loan issuers. The mortgage market boomed to finance buyers or refinance existing borrowers. Experimentation with exotic financial instruments used to curb risk created systemic risks as the mortgages were securitized.
