Banks do not close more than three days in a row because of the great depression. They would close because of bank runs and people trying to withdraw their money, which they didn't have, which caused further bank runs.

Is the government more likely to close small banks or larger banks?

I would think smaller ones, because if a Large Bank falls, there may be a destabilizing effect on the economy. TARP was aimed mainly at the large banks - which proved to be a smart decision because those banks are the backbone of the financial sector.

Why did many banks close in the late 1920s and early 1930s?

Poor policy making by the American Federal Reserve System and continuous crisis in the banking system allowed the money supply as measured by the M2 to shrink by one-third from 1929 to 1933. Public bank failures, particularly the Bank of the United States, produced panic and widespread withdrawals of funds from banks. This caused many more banks to fail and have to close their doors. This caused a downward spiral among bussinessmen. There was no way for them to get new loans, and no way to renew the loans they already had, so they stopped investing which caused more banks to go belly up. because they dint have enough money to give to people
