Booms and Bubbles After the recession of the early 1990s, the US and (to a lesser extent) the Canadian economies boomed. Economies and profits grew, unemployment fell, but stock markets soared. After the stock market (the dot.com or technology stock) bubble of the 90s burst, there was a relatively brief and minor slowdown in growth. A real estate bubble developed in the next decade.

Financial Crises Financial crises have happened frequently in the history of capitalism and certainly in the era of neoliberalism Third World debt crisis 1987 stock market crash 80s and 90s US Savings and Loan crisis 1995 Mexican financial crisis 1997 Asian financial crisis 1998 Long Term Capital Management 2002 Argentine financial crisis

The State and Financial Crises Governments and, in particular, the American state have repeatedly stepped in to prevent financial crises from spreading and becoming a general economic crisis.

2008 Financial Crisis The Warning The battle over regulating the derivatives market: Alan Greenspan, Fed Reserve Chair , Robert Rubin, Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, Assistant Treasury Secretary , then Treasury Secretary Now working for Obama.
