Amanpour and Company

Andrew Ross Sorkin Explains the 1929 Financial Crash and Lessons for Today

Season 2025 Episode 8014 | 17m 46s

It was the moment that sent the U.S. into a panic and drew the Roaring 20s to a close. The 1929 Wall Street crash, which led to the Great Depression, was the most devastating financial collapse in history. This disaster is the focus of Andrew Ross Sorkin's new book. The author joins the show to talk about what led to the financial shipwreck, and what we can learn from it nearly a century later.
