During the Great Depression, there was overproduction of goods from the factories. Due to the Stock Market crashing, people began to cut back on what they were buying to save their money. Soon after this, the factories starting exporting less. However, there was still too much product out for the people to consume, so there was an underconsumption of goods, and the factories started losing money because no one would buy the products.
consumerism
The consumerism of the 1920s, characterized by mass production and the widespread availability of credit, led to excessive spending and overextension of personal finances. Many Americans purchased goods on credit, creating a bubble of consumer debt that was unsustainable. When the stock market crashed in 1929, this debt burden became unmanageable, resulting in reduced consumer spending and a sharp decline in economic activity. The collapse in consumer confidence and spending contributed significantly to the onset of the Great Depression.
There was no 2nd Great Depression. Many thought the Great Recession would be a great depression but that was not the case. In reality, the economy was not even close to another great depression. The great depression included such things as wage fixing and pricing fixing by the government, excess public debt from WW1, Smoot-Hawley act, etc. The Great Recession was just a financial breakdown, which is bad, but not a GD.
Isolationism is a CONSEQUENCE of the great depression. After the Great depression many Nations focused on internal affairs.
How about "And that was my story on the great depression."
consumerism
The most popular belief of the cause of the Great Depression is the stock market crash of 1929. Economist still debate about the other causes. Excess speculation in the stock markets added to the causes of the depression.

The crash, boom and bust, with lots of excess and spending were the boom years. All of these led to the Great Depression in 1929.
