How did black Tuesday cause the great depression?
Cause of Black TuesdayThere was over speculation in the Stock Market, which was not regulated, during the 1920s..Many Americans purchased stock on credit. This was known as margin buying. Politicians did not understand the problems facing the economy so they took no action to regulate the purchase and sale of stocks. As people continued to purchase stock, the value of the shares bore little relationship to the actual health of the industry issuing the stock or the over-all health of the American economy. On September 3, 1929, the average price of shares on the New York Stock exchange peaked and then dipped sharply. For a month, prices spurted up and down, mostly down. Then on "Black Thursday," October 24, a record 13 million shares changed hands and values collapsed. The following "Black Tuesday,", October 29, the drop of shares was worse. 16 million shares of stock were dumped on the market (put up for sale). But there were no buyers. The Stock Market collapsed.

How does a stock buy back work?
The board of directors for a company will announce that they have decided to buy back their own shares from the current outstanding shares and then retiring those shares. A Company may do this for several reasons but the main reason is to increase the value of the stock price for the share holders. If a company has 10 million outstanding shares and a current stock price of $5/share (keep in mind the market cap would be $50 million). The company announces that the board has authorized the repurchase of 5 million shares. Then the company will typically buy those shares back throughout the year(or whatever time frame) reducing the outstanding shares to 5 million from the initial 10 million. Let's say that miraculously the company was able to purchase all 5 million shares at $5/share. So they spend $50 million buying back the stock. If I was wealthy shareholder and own 1 million shares of the company then before the buyback I owned 10%(my shares / total outstanding shares....1 milliion/10million) of the company. After the buyback there are now 5 million shares so I own 20% (1 million / 5 million) of the company. If the stock remains at $10/share after the buyback then the the market cap is now 25 million, but if shareholders thought the value of company was worth 50 million before the only thing that has changed after the buyback is the number of outstanding shares. So that means the price should increase to make the market cap go back up. So the idea is when a company buys back stock they increase the value of each share to the shareholder by increasing their ownership in the company. In our case the price of the stock should now be $10/share making the market cap 50 million again ($10/share x 5 million shares = $50 million). So buybacks are an alternative to dividends as a method for a company to return value to the shareholders.
