    Extractions: Part Four The Great Economic Depression of 1929. A crisis of historical magnitude On Wednesday October 23, there was an unexpected fall in stock prices. There had been many warnings, Wall Street was feeling pretty restless and that anxiety extended to the rest of the country. The following day, prices plummeted, falling harder by the minute and by 11:00 AM it had turned into an avalanche. Panic engulfed the market and by the end of the day 13 million shares had changed hands. But the worst had yet to come. On Monday, October 28 the losses worsened and the day after -Black Tuesday- is still considered by historians as the most devastating in the history of financial markets. 16 million shares changed hands and many could not find buyer, no matter how low the price. By mid-November, 30 billion dollars had disappeared, the same amount of money spent during World War I . Political and business leaders took a long time to grasp the events. By the time they understood the crisis it was already too late, it had turned into the worst economic nightmare of American history. Right after the collapse in stock prices President Hoover reassured the population that the crash reflected only a financial crisis but that the industries (their manufacturing facilities and distribution channels) were basically sound. Henry Ford declared, in November 4 of 1929 that "Things are better today than they were yesterday"; Hoover said a week later that "any lack of confidence in the economic future of American enterprises is foolish" and Charles Schwabb, president of Betlehem Steel said in December of 1929 that "never before had American finances been so soundly prepared for prosperity than now" (12). But sooner than later reality proved the President and all the business leaders wrong and they had to accept that the economy was in a profound recession and later a depression of unimaginable consequences.

    Extractions: Every time the stock market wobbles, the specter of the 1930s Great Depression is raised. Many economists hold that such a scenario won't be played out again at least any time soon. The market crash of 1929 and ensuing events were "the result of a series of policy blunders," according to economic historian Robert Higgs of the Independent Institute. Since then our understanding of economic causes and effects has vastly improved. Leaders in the former era were dumbfounded by events which seemed to overwhelm them. Their answer was the New Deal, which many economists now concede only made matters worse. Milton Friedman has traced the roots of the catastrophe to ill-conceived Federal Reserve policies and passage of the protectionist Smoot-Hawley Act. Between 1921 and 1929, the U.S. money supply grew more than 60 percent, which by keeping interest rates low encouraged risky loans and excessive borrowing. When the Federal Reserve suddenly began raising interest rates in 1929, business activity was choked off and profits began to fall precipitating the market crash. Smoot-Hawley raised tariffs in 1930, sparking international trade wars and destroying markets for U.S. exports.

    Extractions: (From the series The American Experience For our first class session, I will be showing a video from a PBS series on The American Experience. The video, which runs for 60 minutes, chronicles the stock market crash of 1929. Here is a description of the video: The year 1929 put the roar in the roaring twenties. Here is the story of a time when playing the stock market epitomized a national faith in a booming economy and almost everyone believed in the permanent prosperity the American dream. It was time when the stock market was riding in what appeared to be an unending ascent seemingly without limit until, late in the year, on the fateful day of October 29, 2929, the market crashed. Large and small investors alike lost corporate and personal fortunes. A portrait of the era is conveyed by the close relatives of such financial titans of the 1020s as Charles Mitchell, president of the National City Bank (now Citibank), the man who popularized the notion of selling sot and high-yield bonds directly to the small investor; William Durant, "King of the Bulls" and founder of General Motors, who use his millions to try single handedly to avert the crash; and relatively small investors such as Groucho Marx, who detested gambling yet poured his entire life savings in stocks.

By Sam Vaknin, 8/8/2002 Claud Cockburn, writing for the "Times of London" from New-York, described the irrational exuberance that gripped the nation just prior to the Great Depression. As Europe wallowed in post-war malaise, America seemed to have discovered a new economy, the secret of uninterrupted growth and prosperity, the fount of transforming technology: "The atmosphere of the great boom was savagely exciting, but there were times when a person with my European background felt alarmingly lonely. He would have liked to believe, as these people believed, in the eternal upswing of the big bull market or else to meet just one person with whom he might discuss some general doubts without being regarded as an imbecile or a person of deliberately evil intent—some kind of anarchist, perhaps."

The collapse of both the 1920s-era prosperity of the United States and the shakier growth of Germany heralded the world-wide Great Depression of the 1930s, as primary-product producers went bankrupt, trade wars flared, and the banking system disintegrated. Because this series of events shook popular faith in capitalism's ability to "deliver the goods," economic historians have dedicated much research time to its understanding. In this research most emphasis has been on either the U.S. economy's collapse (as with Romer, 1993) or the instability of the world economy (Temin, 1989). Exogenous Shocks and Policy Failures.

    Extractions: On October 19 1987, the Dow-Jones industrial average suffered a major devaluation. The Dow lost over 500 points. Stock trading markets worldwide were all suffering similar declines. At the time, there was a lot of concern over what this meant to the overall economy of the world. The reason for this concern comes from the fact that the last time there was a large devaluation in the stock market, there followed a depression. Economists used a yardstick from the Jazz Age to evaluate this 'correction'; the yardstick was the crash of October 1929. Depressions, we are told, are cyclical in the nature of economics. In this era, we have successfully evaded depressions with the aid of computers, government regulation, and because we actually learned from history. The subject of this crash in 1929 has been studied and discussed many times over the years, by many economic authors. Most notable, in my opinion, would be John Galbraith. His book, "The Great Crash 1929", I heartily recommend if you are interested in the details of the crash and events leading up to it. It is a warning to us that our economic world will not always neccessarily be safe. In 1929, even in 1928, the warnings of an economic disaster were heeded by some of the Wall Street denizens. It seems clear that everyone involved in the speculative boom of the late twenties knew that eventually stocks would drop. Who cares though? At the moment, we are in the business of making money. When the bulls are stampeding, it raises a cloud of dust that makes it hard to see danger. This boom of the 20s is almost as famous as the bust.

    Extractions: By: Chuck Morse We are accustomed to viewing the 1929 stock market crash and the depression that followed as an example of greedy capitalism run amuck. Nothing could be further from the truth. Understanding the crash and depression requires a study in money, circulation, credit, and other subjects that seem dry and dull at first glance. The insufferable shoptalk around the subject of economics causes us to tune out. Once the jargon, sophistries, and linguistic posturing are swept aside however, the subject becomes fascinating. To understand monetary issues is to understand the essence of private ownership and freedom. Manipulation by governments, usually working in tandem with central bankers, of our monetary supply is the primary cause of systemic poverty and social dislocation. First some definitions. What is money? Money has three properties. It is a means of exchange, a measure of value, and an instrument of savings. As a means of exchange, we exchange a mutually agreeable abstract commodity, money, which has been anything from beads, seashells, tobacco or tally sticks to the internationally accepted standard of gold and silver. Money enables us to conduct commerce and trade without bartering our services. Primitive societies figured out the importance of money as an abstract means of exchange. Sound money, accepted by society as honest and standardized, is the basic building block of civilization.

Share markets had collapsed before, indeed a ten-year business cycle of boom and bust was quite normal up to that time, but the particularly rampant speculation of the preceding decade of boom, inflating the value of shares, and the proliferation of holding companies and investment trusts and the extent of large bank loans in the U.S. had accumulated a vast mass of fictitious capital Great Depression There have been even larger crashes since 1929 as well, which have not had the same extent of effect. This is mainly because the share market is only one relatively minor avenue for speculation and even a total wipe out on the share market has only a partial impact.

The euphoric mania in stocks and bonds in recent years has clouded the common sense of Wall Street's rather youngish money managers. Throwing all caution to the winds of greed, the go-go investment gunslinger mentality of the late 60's and early 70's is back again - screaming: "THIS TIME IT'S DIFFERENT. ALL-TIME HIGH MARKET VALUATIONS ARE NO LONGER VALID BAROMETERS, NOR INDICATIVE OF INVESTMENT POTENTIAL!" Many years of garnering market wisdom has taught me the value of prudence and patience, and that youthful exuberance is always the last refuge of the inexperienced. Sooner or later their bubble will burst - and market focus will return to seek cyclic intrinsic values and traditional refuge investment vehicles. "That which has been is that which will be
