DOW up 10,000 points since Trump's election!

What did Obama do to get it there?

Don't be shocked if you get the 'Obama did it during a recession' answer. It's the typical mindset with the left. Their guy does it and it's totally due to him yet the other guy does it better and suddenly it's the 'a President does't have a lot to do with the market' response.

Same type of thing with gas prices. When they were up under Bush, it was his fault. When they were up under Obama, it was the President's actions don't affect prices.

The under educated love hearing this (in Dummkopf's case...posting it). They think it's a badge of courage that all enviro regulations are being decimated. I think that trump bragged that the air was cleaner now than under any other POTUS.

And the inbreds eat it up.

The air is clean and the water is pure where I am. Maybe you live in a shithole.

Few Americans have much stake in the market. It is a plaything of the wealthy and corporations. Praising a market moving up is lauding a bigger wealth gap. The top 10 percent own 85 percent of the stocks.

Anyone with a 401 or IRA has money in the market. My IRA's are doing great after Trump took office.

Liberals like Nordberg have no basic understanding of finances or fiscal responsibility. Anyone, no matter how poor, can invest. Lazy ass liberals are all expecting someone to do it for them.

We have a number of different investment vehicles. The ones linked to the markets are doing very well. The ones linked to interest rates are pretty flat, but since those are a small percentage of the total it's no biggie. I feel sorry for those with annuities; linked to interest rates, those are also very flat. The crash in 2008-09 was a bonanza for some market investors. People were bailing out right and left; Mr. Owl called it a sale on stock and bought more. Meanwhile I was wanting to convert everything to Kugerrands and hide them under a rock in the woods. lol He did good; he's tripled our wealth since then. This is why the money management around here is wisely left up to him.

About as much as Trump.

So obama cut taxes and slashed regulations? Turned us into an energy EXPORTING country? Junked NAFTA? Withdrew from that Paris climate monstrosity? Finally confronted the chinese? Wow! If only he wouldn't have done all that stuff behind the scenes! Hell, if he would have done that stuff in the open, and endorsed hillary because she was gonna do the same, we would probably be impeaching HER by now! Naw, the real reason the market was up for him was, where was there a safer place to put your money during a world wide recession?

Obama scoffs at a measly 10,000 points.

nope. wages up significantly, unemployment at record lows. manufacturing jobs gew 500k under Trump, while Obama lost 200k.
If yu had any understanding of economics, you would understand EXTENDING the recovery ( non-recession)
to it's longest ever recovery, gets more and more difficult as time time goes by ( less room for growth)

Pay gains during Trump’s first year in office best since the Great Recession

So you are saying it hasn't been a Bull Market since 2010?

If you are, you are flat out wrong, Trump's major accomplishment is that he hasn't blown it, yet he has significantly increased the debt attemptimg to inflate it

Now, that's a bright conclusion, but then again you Trumperoo are rather intellectually deficient.

Obama scoffs and laughs at Democrats and liberals who made him a multimillionaire. Why most of you are still groveling for government handouts.
