"The excess credit which the Fed
pumped into the economy spilled over into the stock market--triggering a fantastic speculative boom. Belatedly, Federal Reserve officials attempted to
sop up the excess reserves and finally succeeded in braking the boom. But it was too late: by 1929 the speculative imbalances had become so
overwhelming that the attempt precipitated a sharp retrenching and a consequent demoralizing of business confidence. As a result, the American
economy collapsed. "

Alan Greenspan, 1966
