30 times history has tanked the stock market

In a slide deck from Stacker, 30 market moving historical events have been collected, analyzed, projected and annotated through a series of images.

As Stacker reports, “The stock market is a volatile system not for the faint of heart. Even with extensive, independent research, informed financial consultants, and gobs of dumb luck, jumping in with the bulls and bears is a move that’s riddled with risks standing well outside of anyone’s control.”

Dive into the slide deck and walk from the Credit Crisis of 1772 to today.
