The Stock Market Crash of 1929In 1929, the Stock Market Crashed!!• Stock- the original money paid into or invested in the

business by its founders.

• So… the stock represents how much money was originally invested in a business by the people who started the business.

• Shares- pieces of a business that can be purchased with the purpose of making money

• When people buy shares of a company, they are making an investment in that business.

• Investment - putting money into a business with the hope of making money

• Many people bought stock expecting companies to make money.

• But when the stock prices fell, many investors, or people who bought stocks, lost everything!

The Stock Market Crash of 1929• Stock Market Crash- Prices of stocks drop extremely

low causing investors, and companies, to lose large amounts of money.

• The crash caused others to panic and sell the stock they had.

Banks were recalling loans. Thismeant they made people pay back loans early. But, manypeople could NOT pay!
