The Great Depression stock market collapsed sent shock waves throughout the world

boom-and-bust before the 1930s the American economy was largely unregulated thus it was prone to swings in the Business Cycle

lending/borrowing of money many nations borrowed money from the USA when the stock market crashed they could not pay the loans countries adopted high tariff policies to protect their economies this further reduced world trade

supply-and-demand global overproduction of food = falling food prices many farmers went bankrupt this harmed the USA and world economies

Buying Stocks on Margin people borrowed money to purchase shares in companies when the price of shares went down, they still had to pay back their loan ie. 10,000 shares bought at $1/share cost $10,000 borrow the money to pay. if the share price fell to 1¢/share your stocks would be worth $100 but you’d still owe $10,000
