    The Great Depression
    in the
    United States
    began on "Black Tuesday" with the
    Wall Street crash of November, 1929
    and rapidly spread worldwide. The market crash marked the beginning of a decade of high unemployment, poverty, low profits,
    deflation
    and lost opportunities for economic growth and personal advancement. Although
    its causes
    are still uncertain, the basic cause was a sudden loss of confidence in the economic future. The traditional explanation is a combination of high consumer
    debt
    , ill-regulated markets that permitted malfeasance by banks and investors, cutbacks in foreign trade, and growing
    wealth inequality
    , all interacting to create a downward economic spiral of reduced spending and production. The initial government response to the crisis exacerbated the situation; protectionist policies like the 1930
    Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act
    , rather than helping the economy, merely strangled global trade. Industries that suffered the most included agriculture, mining, and logging as well as durable goods like construction and automobiles that people postponed.
    The economy eventually recovered from the low point of the winter of 1932-33, with sustained improvement until 1937, when the
    Recession of 1937
    brought back 1934 levels of unemployment.
    The Wall Street Crash of 1929, also known as the Crash of ’29, was one of the most devastating stock market crashes in American history—probably the very worst, taking into consideration the full scope and longevity of its fallout. Two catchphrases, “Black Thursday” and “Black Tuesday,” evoke this collapse of stock values. Both are authentic, for the crash was no one-day affair. The initial crash occurred on Black Thursday (
    October 24
    ,
    1929
    ). The collapse continued for a month, but it was the catastrophic downturn of Black Tuesday (
    October 29, 1929
    ) five days later that precipitated widespread panic and the onset of unprecedented and long-lasting consequences for the
    United States
    . Economists and historians disagree as to what role the crash played in subsequent economic, social, and political events. Some consider it to be the beginning of the
    Great Depression
    .
    The Wall Street Journal
    is an
    English-language
    international daily newspaper published by
    Dow Jones & Company
    . The
    Journal
    newspaper primarily covers
    U.S.
    and
    international business
    and financial news and issues—the paper's name comes from
    Wall Street
    , the street in New York City that is the heart of the
    financial district
    . It has been printed continuously since being founded July 8, 1889, by
    Charles Dow
    ,
    Edward Jones
    , and
    Charles Bergstresser
    .
    Dow Jones & Company
    , publisher of the
    Journal
    , was founded in 1882 by reporters
    Charles Dow
    ,
    Edward Jones
    and
    Charles Bergstresser
    . Jones converted the small
    Customers' Afternoon Letter
    into
    The Wall Street Journal
    , first published in 1889,
    and began delivery of the Dow Jones News Service via telegraph. The
    Journal
    featured the Jones 'Average', the first of several indexes of stock and bond prices on the New York Stock Exchange.
    Journalist
    Clarence Barron
    purchased control of the company for
    US$
    130,000 in 1902; circulation was then around 7,000 but climbed to 50,000 by the end of the 1920s. Barron and his predecessors were credited with creating an atmosphere of fearless, independent financial reporting—a novelty in the early days of business journalism.
    Barron died in 1928, a year before
    Black Tuesday
    , the stock market crash that greatly effected the
    Great Depression
    in the United States. Barron's descendants, the
    Bancroft family
    , would continue to control the company until 2007.
