Becky asked:


Also, how much wealth was lost in terms of money during the crash? Can anyone explain what the overvaluation of stocks is? The stock market is very confusing to me, but I think it’s wise to invest. Any help would be great.
I’m getting conflicting information. Online, I read that the 16 billion dollars were lost, but what you said contradicts this.
I also read that more than 500 points were lost.

   The dow peaked at 38117 and falling to the dow peaked at 12200 and hit bottom at 131932 pretty scary if you ask me.
