The Stock Market Crash During the 1920s, stocks and bonds were frequently sold to investors on the basis of glittering promises of fantastic profits - without disclosure of any meaningful information. The securities laws of the United States were developed by Congress in the early 1930s as a direct response to these market abuses, which were blamed in large part for the disastrous Stock Market Crash of 1929, and the ensuing Great Depression. As a result, the regulation of investment securities is one of the few areas in American law that starts with a presumption that the regulated conduct is illegal.
