Best Answer

The Stock Market crash resulted in the loss of capital by businesses, and the loss of personal and investment income by individual stockholders. During the inflationary period of the 1920's, "paper fortunes" had built up, and many were bankrupted. Without investment, companies could not produce, and without production, employment could not be maintained. Many people became impoverished and were fortunate if they still could afford food and shelter.

The crash, therefore, kept the economy from escaping the depression sooner, by reducing both capital and jobs in most types of businesses.
