Who do we blame?
It's safe to say it started with the consumer and ultimately it is now left to the consumer to stimulate the economy.
The institutions tried to make a quick buck and failed miserably.
There seem to be a lot of finger pointing and more ways ‘to skin a cat’ than we have space to cover here.
However, it's human nature to never take the blame or accountability when something bad happens.

For the rest of us, information is key
The Dow Jones Index peaked around 380 in October 1929 and then declined 48 percent to 199 in October 1930.
During the current depression, the Dow declined 37 percent between the October 2007 peak and October 2008.
As the Great Depression continued, the Dow Jones Index fell to a low of 41.2 in the middle of 1932 (a further 82%), a fate that seems unlikely (but not impossible) today, as we find ourselves in the era of technological maturity.

"Rule number one in my book is: Stop listening to professionals! 20 years in this business convinces me that any normal person using the customary 3% of the brain can pick stocks just as well as, if not better than, the average Wall Street expert."
We at Global Trader tend to agree with what Peter Lynch, arguably one of the best Wall Street Stock Investors, had to say above and challenge you to use that customary 3%.
Investigating the origin of the word ‘crisis’, you would be surprised to discover that "crisis" did not originally mean a bad event, but a decision or impending decision. There is no direct opposite to "crisis" but there is for "decision" which is, "indecision". This suggests to me that whatever the crisis (as described by either dictionary or local newspaper), it is a time to choose. Now is the time to decide. Now is the time to act.
