Around the world a slump in agriculture contributed, prices of farm products dropped. Farmers didn't share the growth with the economy and poverty rates increased in rural areas.

In 1927 there was a boom in the stock market. Even though prices were rising business activity was decreasing. After WWI Britain and France forced Germany to repay billions of dollars that were spent on the war. This crippled the German economy causing financial strain across Europe, forcing many banks to close. At the same Tim the U.S force Britain and France to pay for loans and supplies during the war. The U.S loaned millions to Germany and the Germans used these loans to pay back Britain and France. Britain and France used that money to pay back the U.S loans.

On 10/24/1929, also called Black Thursday stock losses were at 9 billion by noon.It dropped even more by Tuesday. After three weeks 26 billion was gone. The crash upset the balance between the U.S and Europe.

During the 1930's an economic crisis caused money to drain from one country to another. Especially when gold supplies went from one country to another. To stop this nations withdrew from international economy. With that foreign investors withdrew fom U.S banks.
