Chapter 8 Review & Test: The Great Depression (1928–1932)
|
In the late 1920s most Americans were confident in the economy, but financial problems were starting to appear. By October of 1929, the stock market began to slide downward and finally crashed, causing investors to lose millions of dollars. The stock market crash led to bank failures, business shutdowns, unemployment, and eventually impacted the world economy. Unhappy with the government's response to the depression, some Americans called for change while others turned to protests.
