Today we had a workday in class. I rounded out my research of the causes of the stock market crash of 1929. I researched Black Thursday, Black Monday, and Black Tuesday (which was a huge blow to the economy. The Great Depression followed not long after. Much blame for the crash was placed on market speculators who are people that predict the rises and falls of the stock market. Evidently they predicted the stock market would crash so everyone freaked out and started to sell their stocks. And that's as far as I got.
