"While most of the attention paid to the October 19 experience in the stock markets has focused on U.S. markets and exchanges, the stock market crash-and the bull market that preceded it-were international in scope. Major exchanges around the world have become increasingly connected. They all experienced substantial increases in stock prices in the years prior to the crash, and similarly experienced sharp drops in value in the period of the crash."
