The Black Tuesday Stock Market Crash

Few days in American history are thought to be as traumatic as Black Tuesday, where the nation’s economy virtually collapsed. This was thanks to unsustainable Wall Street practices, where its traders could have simply set billions of investor dollars ablaze with their insane practices. In just one day, on October 29, 1929, these investors exchanged just under 16 million shares. This concluded almost a week of financial chaos where investment bankers attempted to restabilize the market through the purchasing of enormous swathes of stock. This was the breaking point for prices. This was the birth of the Great Depression.
