Looks like a huge week for the stock market, and when all the earnings beat expectations and your investments rise again, are you going to give the gains back because you don't believe in them?

Name me one piece of legislation that Trump has passed that impacts the economy. Just one. I'll wait.

Obama has had the economy on the ups for nearly 6 years now.

Fox News didn't report it until Trump won.

I doubt it.

I fear their determination to undo everything Obama means results in an end to the longest history of job and economic growth in our nation's history.

Job growth is slowing down.

Dollar is declining.

What is fueling the the stock market uptick? Hope it isn't Wall Street types passing around a bunch of over-valued items at ever-inflated prices, such as bundled mortgages, strip malls, etc.

"The worst crashes (1929, 1987, 2008) happened when Republicans were in office. And many of the greatest bull runs—the Nifty Fifty market of the 1960s, the boom of the 1990s, the current bull run—took place under Democrats."

Under Obama, when the economy grew, unemployment went down, and jobs soared...all I heard from the right were excuses trying to discredit Barack's success. They tried so hard to come up with talking points about how the numbers were inflated or being misinterpreted.

But now under Trump, when the economy continues to grow (JUST AS IT DID UNDER OBAMA FOR 6 OF HIS 8 YEARS), all I hear from Trumpers is worship and praise.


The word we're looking for folks, is hypocrites.

And the Great Depression happened under FDR and didn't end until WWII revved up production. And the boom of the '90s was a continuation of the bull market that started under Reagan. In any event, making investment decisions based on politics is never a good idea.
