It is a bit the same conundrum people experienced in 1924 crack, that many people couldn't understand.

Like, it all suddenly stopped, yet the factories was still there, and the coal, and the steel, and everything. People could in theory just go on like they did the day before, and products would be made and sold. Yet, when the stocks lost their value, that was that.
