there was a global financial crash that you may have missed....pretty much the entire developed world saw slow growth over the same period. why do you think interest rates have been near zero for the last decade or so?


you really are dumber than a box of rocks . you have absolutely zero knowledge about everything you talk about . "republicans are great , democrats are the devil"

Yeah... you have a point. It's not like he would look at a graph, see the steady trend up and concede that what Trump can take credit for, is he didn't mess up what was already occurring.

Last three years?  Okay.  See image below.  You have to admit in the past three years the S&P 500 gains seemed unimpressive toward the end of Obama's term in office, but they really took off right after Trump's victory on 11/08/2016 and haven't slowed down since.

That actually makes it look even better for Trump, not very impressive until his victory on 11/08/2016, then it really took off and hasn't slowed down since.  See attached image below.

From about JAN 2016 the market recovered and was heading up. I give Trump kudos for not messing it up.

I don't think the POTUS typically has a direct impact on the market, but we cannot ignore the historic gains the past year.  They come with the spike in consumer confidence, increased labor participation rate, businesses bringing back and/or keeping jobs in the U.S., slashing of the corporate tax rate, etc.  I give Trump credit for that, at least in part.  Put another way, I seriously doubt the market would be doing as well if Clinton were elected. 

There is going to be a correction at some point though.

If you are invested in the market - you should be happy as a pig in shit like the rest of us mature, well adjusted, solid, responsible adults.

And that's because of the recession nine years ago.  Historically, every recession is followed by a recovery.

Agnostic007's fun exercise said to look back three years, which actually shows the stock market's uphill trend has been significantly more steep continuously since Trump's victory a little over a year ago.

under obama you had pretty much 7 (or whatever) years of unbroken economic growth. since the global crash (if my memory serves me correctly) US growth figures on average have been slightly better than the rest of the industrialised world.

the general consensus (globally) is that the obama administration did a pretty good job steadying the ship and nursing the US economy along following the crash. it's too soon to start praising trump for what is happening economically as most of it will still be the hangover from the previous government.

things are still way from being back to normal all around the globe. growth is still pretty fragile everywhere in the developed world. that's why we still have interest rates stuck just above zero %.

probably doesn't fit in with the nonsensical partisan claptrap spouted on here. but those are the facts.

Nah, I think I’m going to continue rolling with the leader currently in charge.

Trump didn't do a damn thing to the market on election day 2016, but investors took all the cues they needed.  My investments are up more since election day than during the last 3-4 years of the Obama administration.  Obama's policies threw a wet blanket on the economy.

Exactly, investors were counting on Trump keeping his business friendly, campaign promises.  And more recent stock market record gains are much due to the passing of Trump's promised tax reform law.

In January 2016, the stock market recovered from what exactly?  

Anyway, it wasn't heading up really.  It looks like in the last 3 years, the stock market was having trouble reaching and maintaining the 18,500 mark up until Trump's victory on 11/08/2016.  Until then, it was very volatile, making gains followed by almost equal losses.  Yet since Trump's victory, it has been on a continuous, very steep, uphill trend, reaching the 26,000 mark in just a little over a year.  See attached image below.  You can't deny that.

You should be giving Trump kudos for much more than just not messing it up.  His business friendly campaign promises, and the ones he has kept so far have made a huge difference for the better in the stock market.

The Dow's 31% gain during Trump's first year is the best since FDR
- The 30-stock index has surged more than 31 percent since Trump's inauguration.
- That marks the index's best performance during the first year of a president since Franklin Roosevelt.
- "You've got lower taxes, less regulation and confidence in the economy is high," said one investor.
- The S&P 500 has surged 23 percent during Trump's first year in office.
