The worst year for the stock market was 1932 - I beleive the worst year for the Great Depression came later. 1936 or 1937…can someone check their copy of Forgotten Man?

The Great Depression was actually 2 different Stock Market crashes, the 1929 crash, and a 1937 crash. The stock market, but not the economy in general, recovered from 1932 to 1937 (much like it did from 2003 to 2007) and then crashed again.
