Cool blog: News from 1930

Post by annarborgator »

Each day the guy reads the WSJ from the corresponding day in 1930 and posts summaries. I liked this catch, from the "Strangely familiar dept":

There's a large amount of money on sidelines waiting for investment opportunities; this should be felt in market when “cheerful sentiment is more firmly intrenched.” Economists point out that banks and insurance companies “never before had so much money lying idle.”
