Wall Street

The Charging Bull (sometimes called the Wall Street Bull or the Bowling Green Bull) is a 3,200 kg (7,000 pound) bronze sculpture by Arturo Di Modica that sits in Bowling Green park near Wall Street in New York City. The depiction of a bull, leaning back on its haunches, with its head lowered and ready to charge, is a symbol of a prosperous financial market.

The sculpture has become a tourist destination in the Financial District. It has also come to be an unofficial symbol of the Financial District itself, and it often appears in the local news media to punctuate stories about optimism in the financial market.

The sculptor, Di Modica, designed and made the statue as a gift to the people of New York City, hoping to bring back optimism after the 1987 stock market crash and as a symbol of the "strength and power of the American people." He spent some $360,000 to create and install the sculpture. He chose a site in Lower Manhattan, placing it under a Christmas tree in the middle of Broad Street in front of the New York Stock Exchange. The sculpture was an instant hit, but since it was placed without a permit, the police removed it to an impound lot. Public outcry was immediate. The NYC Deptartment of Parks and Recreation responded by moving the bull to a spot two blocks south of the Stock Exchange, where it now resides in the plaza at Bowling Green, facing up Broadway.

In many ways Wall Street is the economic center of the United States economy as trillions of dollars in financing and trading are conducted daily. Anytime there is a huge amount of money at stake there is also the temptation for fraud, financial excesses, and corruption. In the wake of the financial crisis Congress recognized the dangers of a lack of appropriate oversight of Wall Street and thus passed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. Many doubt that this Act will prevent the next financial crisis since each future crisis will be caused by conditions and factors that simply cannot be anticipated by regulators. In addition, Wall Street is constantly attempting to circumvent or weaken regulatory oversight through what is known as "regulatory capture" whereby former regulators take high paid positions on Wall Street and corruptly use their influence as political lobbyists to advance private interests over public interests.

Wall Street was the place to be invested during the 1950s. From a starting point of around 2,020 the Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced by about 150 percent to over 5,000 by the end of the decade. In many ways the 1950s was a golden economic age for the United States. As World War II reached its conclusion many of Europe's cities and factories lay in ruins. The United States was the only major developed country with an intact industrial base and a huge pool of workers as G.I.s returned home after the war. The economy boomed throughout the 1950s with strong gains in both personal incomes and corporate profits which translated into higher stock prices.
