It didn't necessarily "cause" the depression, however, it allowed for more financial disruption. People in the twenties (1920s) were beginning to buy on margin, this new concept for them that excited them beyond belief. Unfortunately, what the began to do, is spend more money than they had, it was practically imaginary money that put the individual in debt.

People were spending money that they didnt have and wouldnt be able to pay back. Once people realized that it was going downhill, everybody tried to withdraw all of their money from the banks. This sent the country into major debt.
