debt, a competitively priced utility market segment paired with a setback in the public utility market, and an overreaction by the stock market. Bierman argues that the overall stock market was not “excessively high” in September of 1929 and he even explains that the business outlook was favorable.

However, it quickly became apparent that a certain education was necessary to perpetuate this union.
