Depression (1930s)...

The 1930s depression resulted from many simultaneous economic shocks: Agricultural failure (weather); excessive credit and overextended weak banks; World War One devastation in Europe (both damage and recovery); increased U.S. isolation policy; and the natural ebb and flow of the business cycle entering a decline.

I have made no attempt to list all causes, but only cite some as examples.

Yes Indeed this has been the scariest G Damn Thing I ever witnessed in my life

Yaacov,I think that the Federal Reserve members have failed to stimulate the economy in face of falling markets.
They are a bunch of pathetic misfits that should have been fired and replaced. The pleas from corporations all over our great country have fallen on deaf ears. This is just plain irresponsible and disgraceful. Shame on the Federal Reserve for their in actions. Every time we have a rally you do not know if it was short covering or a sucker punch set up to steal more of your money away. What is the markets going to do tomorrow?? Who knows. If the Fed would get off their arrogant asses and lower the interest rates aggressively, the climate would change dramatically.
The last thing any of us want if for people to loose confidence in our economy. I think that most are totally pissed off with the FED.

Ciao
