1929 Crash
|
On October 29, 1929, Black Tuesday hit Wall Street as investors traded some 16 million shares on the New York Stock Exchange in a single day. Billions of dollars were lost, wiping out thousands of investors. In the aftermath of Black Tuesday, America and the rest of the industrialized world spiraled downward into the Great Depression (1929-39), the deepest and longest-lasting economic downturn in the history of the Western industrialized world up to that time.

The de Paula Lopes family was the sole representative for Gold Medal Flour in the North of Brazil. They had a sugar refinery and had aquired a granite mine. They lost most of their fortune due to the 1929 Crash. The Stock Market Crash, contrary to popular belief, the crash did not occur all in one day. It was happened in three different days all within a weeks time.
You may recall that during the Depression, Gold Medal flour sacks, of cotton, were used for various household purposes, including dish towels and excellent if inexpensive panties for young ladies. the Gold Medal logo: EVENTUALLY, WHY NOT NOW? |

After October 29, 1929, stock prices had nowhere to go but up, so there was considerable recovery during succeeding weeks. Overall, however, prices continued to drop as the United States slumped into the Great Depression, and by 1932 stocks were worth only about 20 percent of their value in the summer of 1929. The stock market crash of 1929 was not the sole cause of the Great Depression, but it did act to accelerate the global economic collapse of which it was also a symptom.
