Hitler was appointed Chancellor on January 30, 1933, Adolf Hitler was appointed as the chancellor of Germany by President Paul Von Hindenburg. This appointment was made in an effort to keep Hitler and the Nazi Party “in check”; however, it would have disastrous results for Germany and the entire European continent. One interpretation of Hitler becoming Chancellor is that it was mainly due to the Wall Street Crash, beginning on October 24, 1929. Although, there were also other factors involved in Hitler becoming Chancellor other than the Wall Street Crash and the Depression, including problems of the Weimar Government, Nazi tactics and Hindenburg’s appointment of Hitler as Chancellor.
The Wall Street Crash of 1929 was the greatest stock market crash in the history of the United States. The crash started the Great Depression and stock prices did not reach the same level until late 1954. The Wall Street Crash helped Hitler’s rise to power because in 1929, when America called in all its foreign loans, it destroyed Weimar Germany and
I think this because, although the Wall Street Crash helped Hitler’s rise to power, as people started voting for the Nazis and other extremist parties after the economy crashed and the government dealt with it terribly, other factors such as the problems with the Weimar government, were as/more important than the Wall Street Crash. In my opinion, the problems with the Weimar government were a very important reason for Hitler becoming Chancellor, for the reasons that if the government wasn’t as weak and unpopular, then Hitler would have had less of a chance of becoming Chancellor. Additionally, the Nazis tactics were also as important because his policies were very effective and it won support for the Nazis and they gained a lot
The stock market crash of 1929 is one of the main causes of the Great Depression. Before the stock market crash many people bought on margin, which caused the stock market to become very unbalanced, which led to the crash. Many people had invested heavily in the stock market during the 1920’s. All of these people who invested in the stock market lost all the money they had, since they relied on the stock market so much. The stock market crash also played a more physiological role in causing the Great depression. More businesses became aware of the difficulties, which caused businesses to not expand and start new projects. This caused job insecurity and uncertainty in incomes for employees. The crash was also used as a symbol of the changing times. The crash lead the American peop...
When “Black Tuesday” struck Wall Street on October 29th, 1929 investors traded 16 million shares on the on the New York Stock Exchange in just a day which caused billions of dollars to be lost and thousands of investors who got all their money wiped out. After the fallout of “Black Tuesday” America’s industrialized country fell down into the Great Depression which was one of the longest economic downfalls in history of the Western industrialized world. On “Black Tuesday” stock prices dropped completely. After “Black Tuesday” stock prices couldn’t get any worse or so they thought but however prices continued to drop U.S fell into the Great Depression, and by 1932 stocks were only worth about 20 percent of their value. Due to this economic downfall by 1933 almost half of America’s banks had failed. This was a major economic fallout which resulted in the Great Depression because it caused the economy to lose a lot of money and there was no way to dig themselves out of the hole of
Adolf Hitler, head of the NSDAP, became Chancellor of Germany on the 30th January 1933. Following the 'legal revolution' of the following months and President Hindenburg's death on the 2nd August 1934, Hitler made himself Führer and Reichskanzler. The Nazi revolution was complete and Germany was subject to a dictatorship of the extreme political right.
The Wall Street Crash and the Recession in Germany Were the Salvation of the Nazi Party
Hitler was superb at convincing people to believe everything he said. He promised the people a roast in every pot, security, and many more things. By promising the people security that meant that he would keep them all safe and that he can do a better job than anyone else. Adolf Hitler increased in support from bankers and industrialists. So, pretty much he had most of the people who had higher power on his side durning this time period. The the united States stock market crasedd in October 1929 unemployment in Germany quickly rose to over six million. This opened another window for Hitler to get more peoplewho thought that they had nothing and their life was over to side with him. President Hindenburg did not want for Hitler to become the chancellor so instead he appointed Von Pappen but, Adolf Hitler did not agree nor did the Nazi's. hitler eventually did become the chancellor on January 30th, 1933 Hitler then banned all political parties. In 1934 the president died and Adolf Hitler forced his way into power. Now that he was the president he can change anyhting that he wants.
As the fabulous Roaring Twenties came to an end, The Great Depression soon arrived, from the rapid expansion from the early twenties, to a devastating economic downturn, The Great Stock Market Crash of 1929 came as a shock to millions. During The Stock Market Crash many people suffered because this one major event in history crumbed America. While it appeared to be a total surprise to the people, the great crash was expected because, the Federal Reserve saw rising prices in early September, after World War I everyone spent money, and people put their whole life savings into stocks.
There is no doubt that the stock market crash contributed to the great depression, but how? One way that the Crash contributed to the depression was the loss of money it caused to the average man. It is believed that in the first day of the crash almost a billion dollars were lost, this took a large amount out of the pocket of the common man. Without this money people were unable to purchase consumer goods, which the United States economy was based on. Another way the Crash contributed to the depression was the loss of confidence in the market. When t...
The Great Depression of the 1930s was a culmination of disastrous economic events that resulted in the worst economic period in American history. The Stock Market Crash of 1929 is seen as the beginning of the economic downward spiral. The Stock Market Crash of 1929 was caused by a lack of regulation in the financial industry, investors aggressively buying on margin, and overvalued stocks due to market manipulation. Although this event occurred in 1929, Roosevelt ultimately had to address the problems as a result of the crash because President Herbert Hoover was seen as “not doing enough” and lost the election to Roosevelt in 1932. The Great Depression also featured skyrocke...
Without the Great Depression or his oratorical skills it is very unlikely that Hitler would have become chancellor. All of the above factors contributed to Hitler's appointment as chancellor and he would not have risen to power had one been absent. The main reason why Hitler became chancellor was that shareholders panicked in a country 4000 miles away. Had the Wall Street Crash been removed, however, it is almost certain Hitler would never have become chancellor.
The Stock Market Crash of 1929 was the most devastating crash in U.S. history. It started on October 24, 1929 and the downfall ended in July 1932. I always wondered what caused this calamity. Before starting this report, I knew basic idea about the crash. It was a time of decline and huge fortunes were lost. Now I can figure out just why.
The main reason was that people were discomposed that Germany had lost a war and most of the people blame for the defeat. On the other hand, during 1929-1933, the worldwide Great Depression, which impacted Germany, and there was no leader of Weimar could solve the economic problem.
Hitler was able to rise to power because of desperation and a desire for change among the German people. The Great Depression began in the United States in
The stock market crash of 1929 was the primary event that led to the collapse of stability in the nation and ultimately paved the road to the Great Depression. The crash was a wide range of causes that varied throughout the prosperous times of the 1920’s. There were consumers buying on margin, too much faith in businesses and government, and most felt there were large expansions in the stock market. Because of all these positive views that the people of the American society possessed, people hardly looked at the crises in front of them.... ...
By 1929, the U.S. economy was in serious trouble despite the soaring profits in the stock market. Since the end of WWI in 1918, farm prices had dropped about 40% below their pre-war level. Farm profits fell so low that many farmers could not pay their debts to the banks; in turn this caused about 550 banks to go out of business. The nations illusion of unending prosperity was shattered on Oct. 24 1929. Worried investors who had bought stock on credit began to sell it. A panic developed, and on October 29, stockholders sold a record 16,410,030 share. By mid-November, stock prices had plunged about 40%. The stock market crash led to the Great Depression, the worst depression in the nation’s history (until…2014 ☺). It was a terrible price to pay for the false sense of prosperity and national well being of the Roaring Twenties.
The stock market crash had a colossal contribution to the Great Depression. The stock market crash rolled in after the golden time in the 1920’s; with it came the Great Depression trailing right behind. The stock market crash was caused by people investing in stocks with money they did not have, this was called buying on margin. When the stocks fell everyone lost an enormous amount of money that they had invested into the stocks. The stock market was the main cause that forced American into the Great Depression. The stocks were a towering success until the collapse; the crash forced many Americans into poverty because they had to sell almost everything they had to repa...
