73 straight months of job growth.
President Obama's approval rating keeps ticking up.
Good news for the incumbent party, bad news for the party that has lost 5 of the last 6 popular votes.
Really, all the GOP has is the desperate hope for something bad to happen to America, thereby causing political damage to the Democrats and thus boosting the fortunes of the Republicans.
Praying for bad things to happen to tens of millions of Americans is all they can do...
I'm voting for Sanders in large part because I believe he is the only one that will undo the damage that has been done to the middle and lower classes under the Obama administration.

Sanders will have to tax the middle class to death.. we need to grow the economy , not give away more freebees. Socialism does not work.

Yup, that car payment is eating up their spending power.
If Mr. Trump can read the market and economy so well, he wouldn't have to peddle a fake university, frozen steaks, Mexican- and Chinese-made clothing lines, a failed airline, boring "reality" TV show, or declare 4 bankruptcies of his crown jewels. He could have just invested his money in the market, and he'd be a trillionaire by now.
Incentives motivate Wall Street economic forecasters to always be optimistic about the future (just like stock analysts). Of course, for the media and bloggers, there is an incentive to always be bearish, because bad news drives traffic (hence the prevalence of yellow journalism).
This said, like I posted earlier, In general, On average, bear markets give investors about eight months of warning that a recession is on the way. That is, the average recession after a bear market doesn't begin until 253 days later. But there's a wide range: The 2007 recession began just 53 days after the 2007 bear market began. But it took 367 days before the November 1968 bear market yielded to the 1969 recession.
so even bear markets prediction can be a little off.
I don't really agree with him or disagree with him. This topic, maybe a little bit less heated than abortion debate, really will never be any agreement.
