In the year 2008 stock markets declined because of the global economic crisis
Generally stock markets decline when there are more sellers than buyers. If there is large scale selling of stocks the stock prices tumble which in turn brings down the Stock Market.

In October of 1929 with the crash of the stock market.
The Great Depression began in 1929, with the stock market crash on October 29, known as Black Tuesday, serving as the event that sparked it. This catastrophic decline in stock prices led to widespread panic, bank failures, and a sharp drop in consumer spending and investment. The economic downturn deepened in the following years, resulting in massive unemployment and hardship across the globe.

A Bear market is the term used when a stock market is in decline, a Bull market is going up.
A market is often referred to as a "bear market" when there is a decline or an expected decline in stock prices across the entire stock market. This typically occurs when investor confidence wanes, leading to widespread selling and a drop in stock values of 20% or more from recent highs. Bear markets can be driven by various factors, including economic downturns, rising interest rates, or geopolitical tensions. They contrast with "bull markets," where prices are rising or expected to rise.
