October 29, 1929 is known as Black Tuesday. It is the day of the Great Wall Street Crash of 1929. It is known as the worst day in Stock Market history. Investors panicked and everyone starting selling their stocks all at once. Panic hit the country and over 16.4 million shares of stock were sold. Since everyone was selling and nearly no one was buying, stock prices collapsed. It is a day that devastated the economy and was a main factor in the beginning of the Great Depression.
