Do you think the stock market crash will affect our housing market? After all if interest rates keep rising surely we will join the Americans and start defaulting on our mortgages. House prices may then fall and we could all end up in recession. What do you think. the stock market lost millions today in value - I'd call that a crash. It all started because interest rates went up in America and people with huge mortgages couldn't afford it. Over here interest rates have gone up dramatically and their are many people with hefty debt. Its not hard to see a pattern emerging here surely or am I the only one.

Who were the 3 U.S. presidents in the period before the Great stock market crash of 1929 and the beginning of the Great Depression and what political parties did they belong to? wait ....gene...2 things. I think you missed Hoover. Wasnt Hoover president also right before the crash occurred? I am sure of it. Also you did not mention their parties. So I think you meant to say Hoover (Republican), Coolidge (Republican) and Harding (Republican) as the correct answer
Who else is looking forward to Obama causing the stock market to crash? He plans to raise the capital-gains tax from 15 percent to as much as 28 percent, which is nearly doubling it. This will cost investers of stock to sell it to prevent getting taxed at what will be the new high rate, once it gets passed. Once the stocks are sold, if no one buys it, the stock market will crash, isn't it awsome? http://www.adjunct.diodon349.com/Attack_on_USA/president_obama_and_the_coming_stock_market_crash.htm
After the stock market crash in 1929, where did/had all the moeny gone? On the TV it spoke of $30billion was active, then everyone sold, the market crashed and so many people lost money. Where did it go? Was it just a superimposed amount of money or did it actually generate that much cash, did that sum actually physically exist? They spoke of people making losses and loosing life savings and homes. Did anyone make any money from the crash (apart from debt collectors). If the '$30billion' figure existed and led to the crash then how come a maximum limit isn't set, even a virtual maximum limit? Am I trying to simplify an extremely complicated process?

Recent Stock Market Crash? With the stock market crashing because of housing issues, what does this mean for home prices?

Will the stock market and economy begin to crash within a few years? Greenspan thinks so. He says the current stock market pattern resembles the 1987 and 1998 stock market crash. http://biz.yahoo.com/rb/070907/greenspan_market.html?.v=6 When I say crash, I am talking about a 40-50% correction or higher. A dip of 10% obviously isn't a crash. Say, if DOW corrected from 13000 to 10400, that is a 20% correction, and that is a trend towards lower numbers.

Democratic Stock Market crash coming? My theory is that the Democrats will purposely stir up problems for business by holding hearings and threatening new costs and liabilities for business. This will cause business to react to the uncertainty by pulling back (less investment hiring fewer employees). This will stall profits, cutting government tax income spurring Dems to call for yet more taxes in the name of balancing the budget. Layoffs will increase. The Stock Market will crash. The voters will blame it all on Bush and elect a Dem in 2008. Money can't rotate out of real estate very well. As more real estate goes on sale the prices drop and real estate items (paint, furiture, repairs) drop which causes stocks to also go down. I agree that a housing decline will increase foreclosures, but the lenders are mostly Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac securities holders. They may see a decline in their income.
Will the stock market crash? In 1929 or whatever the market crash after a dip and a nother and all the IOUs could not be paid. .10 percent of stock was yours and you owed the other .90 Also no one was spending their mony. Where doing the IOUs all over again but in a different way. You cant spend your money if you owe money. So with a few go drops will it crash.
do you think the stock market is about to crash? We are seeing signs on tv and the newspapers that leads one to belive we are in for an impending stock market crash like the one in 1929. This time we dont have the gold to bail us out and all we have left is the blue print from President Roosevelt to rise from the ashes. Has the time come to dump the Government saveings bonds and bank cds and invest in Gold? I dont think i'm alone in my way of thinking because the market has come very close to crashin this past week. One needs to consider eiter looseing everything or salvageing what you can right now! Your Throughts? .
Did relatives pass down stories about the stock market crash and the start of the Great Depression? Grandmother lived in Pittsburgh on a farm surrounded by a lot of "well to do" people, as she would say. She told us stories of people jumping, and doing themselves in-as soon as they found about about the stock market crash because that is where everything they owned was tied up, and they had no idea of what to do in a positive manner. She knew many who died this way and that is why she had a financially stable life. She would not invest in any of the markets though. She said, "Land is always there, no one can take that away from you."

Will the stock market crash when baby boomers take money out? I read some blog post where the blogger claimed that the Dow will sink to 6,000 when baby boomers take money out of retirement accounts. Even if the removal of money from these accounts stimulates spending, can the stock market sustain high levels without the support of all those retirement accounts? Even if the money isn't being taken out all at once, that would mean a gradual decline of the market? Most funds don't beat the S&P average (11%), so we can't assume interest will last forever and we shouldn't assume that the following generations (a smaller population) would keep the same amount of money in retirement accounts.
The Stock Market Crash? Why do you think some people invested a lot of their money in the stock market in the late 1920s, even though there was some risk involoved?
In the 1929 stock market crash, how much wealth was wiped out? Note: I'm not asking for the percent decline in the index, I'm asking for (the dollar value of the market after the crash) divided by (the dollar value of the market before the crash). So if I had bought every last share of stock in the market before the crash, and sold them all after, what percent would I be down?

Should the stock market crash in China and Hong Kong to cool down overheated economy and staggering inflation? I rather angry for losing my Yahoo answer while answering a question about the benefits and harms to different groups of people in Shenzhen after it recognized as a "market city". I rather concern about the staggering inflation in China and Hong kong counterpart. I am aware that many young couples with university degrees and hold good jobs in Shenzhen can not afford to buy a small flat in Shenzhen. Many educated young couples in China and Hong Kong become mentally sick because they can't cope with the hardship of living standards of these market cities. The workload is so high and stressful in China and Hong Kong. One girl is reported dead a few days ago because of overtime work and office stress in a Japanese company in Shanghai, China.
stock market crash question? your opinion, is the current drop of 1000 for the DOW a symptom of failed Republican policy of the last few years or is it unavoidable and just part of a natural cycle?

If the stock market crashes (and I mean CRASH BIG TIME) should we expect martial law throughout the USA? Yes, this is a hypothetical question, but I want to hear what others think about it. And please spare me the "Conspiracy" theories, comments...it is HYPOTHETICAL. They STILL have martial law in New Orleans 2 years after Katrina, so it isn't as if this current government is not afraid to use it. Dom, when has if the action is actually Constitutional or not ever stopped this administration? I don't recall Bush ever caring about laws or not. He has shown time and time again that he thinks he is ABOVE the law.
