     Prior to 19th century, the speculative bubble is which exists in the over-pricing asset like the 
Dutch tulip mania (1637), South Sea Bubble (1720) and Mississippi Bubble (1720).   During the 
19th century, the economic recession accompanies with bank failures.  For example, in the 1st 
boom to bust economic cycle of U.S., the reason of U.S. economy recession is mainly progressed

financing from banks causes the British collapse at the end of the 1840s railroad boom (1847) 
and a panic in the United States (1893). 
     After the Second World War, the Great Depression, the largest and most severe economic 
depression, was occurred.  In most countries, it started in 1930 and lasted until the late 1930s or 
middle 1940s.  In the 20th century, financial crisis are various like the specific district (Wall Street

Mexico, 1994/Asian Financial crisis, 1997/Russian Financial Crisis, 1998) and specific date 
(Black Monday, 1987/Black Wednesday, 1992). 
     In the 21th century, the internet industry which faced the Dot-com bubble in 2001. After the
