Day after day nothing but good news about the economy, jobs, and new optimism after the disastrous Obama years.
Must be really tough for you to be eating that crow.
No, it's not. Because we actually know history. You just choose to ignore it so you can cheerlead for Trump for no good reason. "Trump's butt is occupying the Oval Office, so he is the great job creator." What? Obama and Obama's policies helped get us out of a terrible recession caused at least partly by Republicans. See, there is such a thing as cause and effect. Job gains do not occur instantly when a new president enters office. They happen years later, AFTER the policies have had an affect on businesses.
Awesome. So Trump is in good company, since he's doing more of the same....constantly blaming others.
At least he is trying to tackle the real problems instead of putting his head in the sand and ignoring them. That's exactly what Obama did. But he did give great speeches.
U.S. job gains slowed by more than forecast in December, wage growth picked up slightly and the unemployment rate held at the lowest level since 2000, adding to signs of a full-employment economy.
Payrolls rose by 148,000, compared with the 190,000 median estimate of economists surveyed by Bloomberg, held back by a drop in retail positions, a Labor Department report showed Friday. The jobless rate was at 4.1 percent for a third month, while average hourly earnings increased by 2.5 percent from a year earlier, after a 2.4 percent gain in November that was revised downward.
The P/E ratio is reflecting the positive change in tax and other policies. I don’t remember any correction after May 2009 when P/e hit 123 compared to 26 today.

When has the P/E ever hit 123? Maybe for one company, but never for the US stock market as a whole.
Right now, the trailing-ten-year P/E for the S&P 500 is at 33. The only time it was higher was during the late 1990s tech bubble.

You really think Obamacare helped most Americans save money?
