How was the European economy after the war? After the war, most nations were left owing huge amounts of money Victory was not cheap… Wartime spending was higher than any taxes or trade brought in Defeated nations, like Germany, faced the extra burden of reparations to the Allies

How was the American economy after the war? The US economy was much stronger than other nations Why? No fighting had taken place on American soil After the war, American factories were producing most of the world’s goods! The US had entered the war late and kept its costs low

How did the US help Europe after the war? The US acted as the world’s bank by loaning money to other nations To make a profit, the US needed European nations to repay their loans with interest…. The US was headed for trouble That rarely happened!

What other factors weakened the US economy? Buying on the Margin People bought stock and only paid for part of the costs, the borrowed the rest from stockbrokers Risk taking buyers Some buyers “gambled” on the stock market in hopes of making a profit. Stock prices were built up beyond their real value

What happened in October 1929? Stock prices became so high, that less people could afford to buy stocks With less investors, prices begin to drop Nervous investors begin to sell as well October 29, 1929 – The Stock Market “crashes”
