But after the failure of Trump's Obamacare replacement at the end of last month followed by a weaker-than-expected jobs report Friday, the market clearly has its doubts about this premise.
The 'Trump rally' is on its last legs -- here's what that means for the market


I don't expect him to be able to keep a single campaign promise.
He has kept campaign promises. Rolled back a bunch of EOs that were stifling businesses and got us out of TPP.

Indeed. It's been a good 2 months for American business.

10s of 1000s new good paying jobs too.

I'm not sure truer words have ever been written. Although I made enough on nVidia stock last year to buy a new Porsche 911.

I think though, even if I made several mil or a bil and moved to that private island, I'd still check in to see what's going on and talk about things.

oh waldo, just thursday you were bragging about Trump creating 250K new jobs, then the REAL number came out and Trump LOST jobs, he was in under 100k new jobs... so much worse than Obama. awful sad, TRump numbers


But i get it, you love the trump and will take any number and talk it up.

Lousy two months.

The germans now hate Trump, the Mexicans Hate Trump. The Chinese paid Trump off cheaply with IP. Jobs are DOWN, (bad sad trump) Healthcare bill a disaster, with GOP infighting, Admin infighting.

it has been a lousy two months.

Nobody came to see Trump so he lied and showed the world as POTUS he will be a liar.


it has been a lousy two months.

Trump is seeing his entire campaign exposed as working for the Russians, tied up in russian loans...


Now Trump resorts to bombing nations illegally to distract attention from his sad, loser admin..



Lousy two months, for TRump and much worse for his supporters. Because now they see he is abandoning them just to prop up ratings.

It was 263,000 jobs and more manufacturing jobs have been created than anytime under Obama (where they disappeared)

You guys keep being proved wrong.

Trump is fantastic compared to the Democrats but I wonder how long this bubble can go on for.

Record high prices to sales ratio, insanely high price to earnings ratio.

Record high amounts of car loans and student loans.

Home prices are inflated because of extremely very low interest rates.

Unfunded pensions at the state and local government level.

Only about 4 out of the 18 years of the baby boomers have reached full-retirement age and only 7 out of the 18 years of the baby boomers are on Medicare so expenses will go way, way up.

What a ridiculous statement. We were on the edge of economic disaster after Bush 2.

And I voted for him the first time.

Wouldn't it save a lot of space if those that didn't have a clue about how something works didn't run here as minions of the Democratic Party and spew nonsense? Seriously, Trump is doing great and will try, against some bitter opponents, to keep his campaign promises.

Really, the threads in this area of C-D have gotten so ridiculous that it is waste of energy to try to address such ignorance.

Google can be a good friend when it comes to dispelling ignorance. I would think those with highly educated Dems could, at a minimum, use google.

Try learning about the stock market rather than wasting time parroting liberal news!

FYI interest rate hikes generally cause the markets to go down.

Not quite understanding aspects of your post that seem to contradict each other.

Are you mmmm, out of your depth on this topic?
