Many people have heard of the Great Depression, but what caused this economic downturn? One of the great signifiers of the beginning was the Stock Market Crash of 1929. With that came the disaster of thousands of banks collapsing through the 1930’s. With the failure of financial institutions came a reduction in personal spending. These three factors helped bring about this awful disaster.

In the beginning came Black Tuesday 1929. That day the value of shares in the Stock Market plummeted, causing people to lose fortunes. Within two months shareholders lost nearly 40 billion dollars. With no end in sight the country braced itself for the eventual repercussions of major companies and wealthy citizens losing so much capital in such a short time.

Following the market crash came trickling effects of this disaster. Throughout the 1930’s, 9,000 banks failed. This means that any bank that overstretched itself through loans could declare bankruptcy. Any person with funds in that bank would simply lose their entire life savings. Also, people stopped investing their money in banks, and banks stopped offering loans creating a series of continued problems.

A final cause came because of this lack of personal and commercial investment. Whether because of a loss of personal finances or a lack of commercial options, people stopped buying things. Without money to buy things the market continued its downward spiral, bringing banks and personal finances with it. This lack of personal spending perpetuated the problem of dwindling market values.

In the end the causes of the Great Depression were byproducts of each other. Starting with problems of an overextended market that crashed and died quickly over a few months, the spiral began. From there the failure of banks coupled with a lack of purchasing destroyed exchanging finances. Thus the United States created and endured the greatest financial disaster of the world.

The article focuses on the causes and the effects of the Great Depression of the 1929 stating that it was the beginning of the stock market crash of 1929 names Black Tuesday 1929. The passage lists the effects stating it was the cause for stock market crash, bankruptcy of the banks and lack of personal spending. the professor supports the point of the passage by stating that the Black Tuesday 1929 led to many factors dependent on each other that caused Great depression.

Firstly, the passage describes The beginning of Black Tuesday 1929 where the stock market crashed causing people to lose fortunes. The professor in the lecture supports this point by explaining about failed jobs and high rate of unemployment at that time.

Secondly, The passage posits that There were later failure of the banking sector where banks declared their bankruptcy and people lost their life savings which led them to stop investing in the banking sector. The professor agrees with this point and states that the effect of the disaster not only affected the banking sector but also the farming industry. He mentions the term that the financial draught swept the farming industry.

Thirdly, the article describes the lack of personal and commercial investments where because of the loss of personal finances and lock of commercial options, people stopped buying things. The professor in the lecture supports the point by stating that the Great Depression further occurred due to poor foreign policies and the high rate of import duties that was induced on imported goods. The United States of America encouraged national level purchasing but that was too little to balance the economy.

The crux of the entire passage and the professor is, after the Black Tuesday 1929, once factor led to another and caused the Great Depression- United States created and endured the greatest financial disaster of the world.
