By the end of 1929 unemployment was growing fast. A few years later unemployment soared to 33%.
Did unemployment cause it- no, but undoubtedly made it worse.

Hi tekgk; Regarding unemployment and the '29 crash.
I think this is extremely important regarding the
current market mania. So I am going to look up the
numbers when I get a chance. But back then, wasn't
3.8% unemployment a relatively high number? That's
just a little lower than what we have achieved in our
time of unemployment insurance, etc.
