People conveniently forget that World War II severely affected stock trading, and if World War II had never happened I personally think the stock market would have recovered back to the pre-crash levels by the middle 1940's at latest.
You conviently forget that WWII ended the depression, not FDRs programs.

World War II ended the Great Depression, but it still didn’t help stock prices. Stock prices didn’t reach back to pre-Crash levels until the early 1950’s!
