  • 📜 The 1929 Stock Market Crash: Black Thursday - With our current economic climate being... dubious, we thought that it would be a good time to look at another economic disaster in American history. Just six months before Herbert Hoover gave a speech highlighting the economic success The 1929 Stock Market Crash which is closely tied to the Great Depression and felt like it came out of nowhere. But that might be a bit of a misconception. We explore what kicked off the drop, what people did to try and stop/slow it down, and why stock markets and the Economy are NOT the same thing.

      There is a saying that "History repeats itself, but Twain argued that that was not reeeally the case.
      Thinking that History repeats itself takes all validity to reaction, makes it "destiny" or something, when in reality there are similarities to past events in current challenges, not an unavoidable repetition.
      For instance, the witch trials that plagued Europe from the Renaissance onwards and 20th Century McCarthyism were far from the same thing happening again, but they "rhymed" a lot in their paranoid, moralistic, corrupt and populist characters.

      They do learn; but they forget later, especially when the next generation takes over that never experienced the original first hand. Stocks on margin in particular: That required 10% down to the stockbrokers before the crash, but in the aftermath, they raised that to 50%. (Stocks only; as far as I can tell, for Commodities the 10% down still applies.)
      And in this video you see the bankers who had experienced the previous Panic, try to fight the new economic war with what had worked during the previous one.

    Always remember, people, the value of stocks is imaginary and does not actually represent how well any given company is doing. It merely represents how well investors THINK it's going to do in the future based on assumptions common at the time. My favorite example was that time Pixar's stock dropped because they made Up and investors believed it was going to kill the company because nobody could imagine how they would make toys based on that kind of a movie. Stocks plummeted for a few months, until it turned out Up was the most successful film that year, and then they shot right back up.
    It's more emotion driven than logic-driven.
    Also, don't take out loans to invest in companies. Investing is risky enough on its own.

    Perhaps many people are not expecting there to be a crash because of the upcoming selection. Forgetting that market crash should be embraced, because every crash or collapse offers an equal market opportunity if you are well prepared and knowledgeable. I've seen people accumulate up to $800,000 during crises and even pull it off with ease in a bad economy. Without a doubt, the bubble or crash has made someone extremely wealthy.

    My opinion is when the market goes down then it's buying opportunity, If the market goes up then you are making money. If you stay invested and ignore the market's ups and downs, you'll make a lot of money in the long run; however, a severe market correction causes a lot of margin calls and sell-offs, driving the market even lower. Currently, I'm up 30% in my diversified portfolio. As crazy as it sounds some still make enormous returns from this seemingly unknown market, you have to be fearless when others are fearful.

      Unfortunately, in the US there is very little practical difference. During boom cycles, the wealthiest upper class collect on their dividends, with almost none of it trickling down to the average employee (despite what proponents of trickle down economics would have you believe). However, when the stock market goes bust, everyone suffers as peoples’ livelihoods are sacrificed in order to protect profit margins. In other countries, protections have been implemented in order to ease the effects of mass unemployment, such as mandating furlough rather than mass layoffs. In the US, only some jobs are currently guaranteed, and only for six months. Come September, expect an even bigger mass layoff than in March.

    Reminds me of the soybean fiasco of the 70s that led to so many farmers losing their farms in the 80s. The price of soybeans began soaring in the early 70s to the point it was the most profitable (legal) crop to grow. The farmers who had fields of soybeans were raking in dough. The next year, more farmers started to grow soybeans, and they made a fortune. Farmers then started going into debt to buy more land and new equipment so they could grow more soybeans. Then the market was flooded with soybeans, the price crashed and the farmers were saddled with debt they couldn't pay.

Imagine having your economy completely dependent on two resources and take faith in their prices staying high so much, you don't even invest in equipment to develop them, things like tankers to hold extraneous oil, or ships that can build pipelines - russians don't have those. They literally just dug a hole in the ground in Cold War era and lived off that.

    What I'm learning from a lot of these videos is that all of these complex systems work really, really well. Until one day...they don't. Unfortunately, the imminent collapse is often only obvious in hindsight. Otherwise, we would all be timing the market and sell at the peak.

    • @jg2323
      @jg2323 ปีที่แล้ว

      A lot of the time it is pretty clear even at the time, it's just stupid greed. Look at Crypto. Bitcoin shot through the roof for a while. Now, most people should be smart enough to go "Okay, I have doubled what I paid in. Now is the time to sell." Instead they say "But...if I stay in a few more months I may triple it. I'll just wait a little longer." Time passes and "Now it's Triple! But...a little more and I can quadruple it..." And they hold and hold and hold long past the point it is sensible because they have an intangable dollar value that NOW is the time to sell it, when the sensible time to sell for a reasonable profit was well before.

      Yeah, that's the equivalent value, but a dollar's a dollar in LA, and in Opossum Trot. The same house isn't going to cost the same price. Gas prices outside North America converted to upwards of 4 dollars a gallon, while in Kentucky 2.50 would have been an awful price in January, and oh boy have they dropped since then. Basically, those amounts may be equal, but they aren't representative of what you can do with them.

    It is so utterly frustrating to think about how economics is portrayed as this all-powerful, self-directing force of nature like the weather or something, as if it wasn't created by humans and is being run by humans. The fact that the actions of a handful of people can cause disastrous and life-ruining circumstances for millions, even billions of people should be something that has everyone up in arms, yet we've just been taught that it's how things work.
