Today we had a five question "pop quiz" thing about what made the 1920's so exciting.Then, we had blog discussion about the Stock Market Crash of 1929. We talked about the causes and what banks were doing to help..Causes:Overspeculation during the 1920's.Overproduction of goods.Buying on margin.Uneven distribution of wealth in the 1920's.Too much borrowing from banks.Stock prices grossly inflated; did not have "real" value.
