The current version says: "The Great Depression was a severe worldwide economic depression that took place mostly during the 1930s, beginning in the United States". This is wrong. Trouble started in London/England/GB and continuously affected other places. On the other hand side, damage done to the U.S. economy was so bad that other economies e.g. in South America and on continental Europe were badly affected as well at this point, while the initial British failure of stock markets and related bank collapses were not able to do such enormous harm. In fact, it needed the leading economy to collapse to create such a global crisis, and the leading economy of these days had been the U.S.A. So the article should be re-written/ corrected to tell the actual story and to reflect all relevant facts in a precise and sufficient way. 188.99.107.40 (talk) 11:20, 14 June 2021 (UTC)

Yes October 24, 1929 fell on a Thursday not Tuesday meaning it would have been October 22 which was known as “black Tuesday” as the author states and therefore it should be edited to reflect the actual date of the event. 2603:8090:103:1E00:919A:F646:73A9:B84 (talk) 11:19, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
Done switched back to Black Thursday as the date is correct. Tuesday would've been the following Tuesday and the 29th Cannolis (talk) 14:59, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
