Dow last year under Obama vs First year under Trump. Trump

[bobgeese]

The numbers show that the majority of people get off of welfare and most of those that don't are either working, are disabled, children, etc.. That describes a small percentage of what happens.

And lol what is fancy to you, a salad?

Forgive me if I get salty watching a lazy piece of shit be rewarded for her bad life choices.

Again, "lazy piece of shit" represents a small percentage of the people who get benefits. Get salty all you want, I don't give a shit, but you're just a salty motherfucker that doesn't make much sense.

Honest question: What has President Trump done to affect the stock market?

 

[Jack V Savage]

But nobody can seriously claim that Trump has NOTHING to do with the DOW climbing 5023 points in 11.5 months as of today.

Of course they can. Markets have been up all over the world. Stocks are up more in China, Japan, Germany, and many other places. The Global Dow (42% U.S. companies) is doing better than the Dow.

The idea that Trump just by getting elected is causing a worldwide boom in stocks is one of the sillier ones we've seen from partisan fanatics.

 

[Rational Poster]

That's not a bad point.

But the working class can hitch a ride on the upswing.

10% of the people own like 80% of stocks. lol

53% of Americans own no stocks.

The rest split the remaining 20%.\


You are fake news.

 

[Voltron]

From Nov 13 to Nov 4th (as close as I could get the chart to Election Day, of Obamas last year.

+ 643 points.


From Nov 4th until today.

+ 4983 points

Almost 5 fucking THOUSAND points. Almost 10x the gains as under Obama.

"But but but, it's the obama economy"

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaa.

Well yeah you are right we still under Obama’s economy still, give it 2 years for trump economy to kick in and then come back and talk shit kid

 

[Jorge Luis Borges]

What does the current stock market have to do with Trump? Did Trump pass a budget or any kind of economic legislation yet?

I don't think the stock market has anything to do with Trump, other than perhaps increased confidence from investors. Trump has been doing a great job reining in US agencies like the EPA and in cutting red tape and regulation that have stifled business.

I think tax reform would be a big plus in this direction as well, but he hasn't accomplished that yet.

 

[Jorge Luis Borges]

The scoreboard says it all.

The stock market isn't a political scoreboard.

The poor isn't really getting poorer, they receive enough subsidies that they can sit of their lazy asses while collecting enough taxpayer money to live quite comfortably.


The middle has suffered under globalist policies that shipped our factories overseas. Both parties are guilty, same thing with illegal immigration.


Btw, it's apparent you have no better solution. You can't guarantee prosperity for everyone. I've certainly never received a paycheck from a poor person, you?

Want to hear some fucked up shit? I live in NYC- upper west side. I’m an attorney. We have mutual friends that are friendly with the Trump family. And I can still remember this...long story short. We were involved in political banter and one of the individuals who deals with the Trump family on a regular basis mentioned that Trump made a comment regarding how “This country needs another good war to get the economy rolling like it did in 1945”. I’m telling you, the man’s elevator doesn’t go to the top floor.

well, it is not surprising that the world is reacting to the investor confidence in the United States that has been bolstered by the accession of a less socialistic administration. The markets are not total islands.

Oh stop... Trump is literally Jesus. The guy is about as perfect as one can get and the stock market shows it. The stock market is basically a mirror image of Trump the man. Record highs ALL THE TIME

Look at his hot wife. She is obviously attracted to his looks and personality. He’s stunning.

 

[Drenalin]

I absolutely guarantee you when the market crashes again you'll place all the blame on Obama.

Do you even know why the market crashed the last time?

Holy shit, this might be the most ruthless reply #1-2-3 I've ever seen on Sherdog.

TS got BTFO, lmfao.

Reading comprehension fail. There is a short one syllable word in my post that will disabuse you of this if you care to find it.

 

[Krixes]

All I know is my mutual funds have been making..

Oh for sure. I mean how could he have gotten her if he wasn't the perfect man.

Are you kidding? I was thinking that seeing that growth is international would make you realize how silly it was to attribute it to Trump, but instead you just carried on with the same crazy narrative! And, yes, there is a correlation with international stocks--that's precisely why it's dumb to attribute simultaneous growth to local factors, not a reason that Trump magic is boosting the whole world.

Theoretically, there *could be* something to your point, IMO. Passing anti-labor regs should boost the value of a company, all things being equal (because more of the value produced by the company goes to owners than workers). That could be the reason why all things being equal, companies in countries that, for example, require worker representation on boards trade at lower valuations. But the impact of such a change would be a one-time thing and wouldn't boost companies that aren't affected, and the impact wouldn't be that large. Furthermore, as Trump's terms has gone on, it has become apparent that changes he supported are less likely to be enacted than people might have thought at first given the ineptitude of his administration.
