The stock market crash of 1929 happened at a time when the country was booming and the economy was developing. The position of the USA at the period was flourishing as it emerged as a superpower just after the World War I. The blooming period was known as the Roaring Twenties when all sectors of the economy were booming, and the crash came as a shock to the entire country and other countries since most of the countries were interconnected with each other on the basis of trade and commerce. This led to a global depression, and almost all the countries were affected, causing widespread downfall.
