The Wall Street Crash led to many short term implications for instance, it's devastating impact of the American economy, but it also led to global problems for instance, American withdrawal of European investment, end of reparations, no disarmament and USA isolationism.
One example of the short term significance of the Wall Street Crash is American withdrawal of European investment. For instance it meant the collapse of the Dawes plan, which was largely dependent on large amounts of American capital. Due to wages being cut and unemployment rising to very high levels, it meant the USA was no longer in a position to invest in Germany which it had been in the 1920's to support and stimulate growth. Consequently the money invested and leant to Germany was needed back. This as Stresemann admitted made Germany's "economic position" like "dancing on a volcano." The German economy which had been slowly recovering became a lot more fragile and as Stresemann states "ifshort term credits are called in, a large part of our economy would collapse." This claim reigns true as many companies throughout Germany, primarily those stationed in the Ruhr went bankrupt and by September 1929 over 1.3 million people were unemployed.
In addition to destroying Germany's production levels, the Wall Street Crash also meant many Germans were cast into deep poverty and misery. Consequently this bought a loss of faith in the current political parties in the Reichstag. This meant they lost faith in the current Weimar government and disunity was brought about to the political parties in the Reichstag. Germans began looking for an alternative government, many turned to systems such as fascism and communism. This anarchy is also demonstrated in the domestic affairs of France and Spain which showed current regimes could not cope with the ills of capitalism. .
A direct implication of the Wall Street Crash was the Young plan for reparation payments.
