And they were right for once. Now, they're wrong again. Biden is an absolute disaster, and he had nothing to do with the rise in the Dow.

I disliked a LOT about Trump but he and his team did get the vaccine out and they did preside over some astounding economic growth. Credit where it is due. Had he acted slightly differently about COVID he would likely have cruised to easy victory, but his nature is such that he couldn’t not politicize it and paid the price for doing so.
Democrats politicized it up quite a bit.

When inflation rises 5% each month, yeah, we can expect the stock market to show higher, inflated, jacked up numbers.

Dow closed above 35,000 today, the highest ever. Investor confidence is restoring under the competent leadership of President Biden and his administration. Have a fabulous weekend all.
Wow, that is a giant bubble.. The Fed's low interest rates are feeding it.

And its still pretty true. Just as I dont give Trump a lot of credit, I dont feel the need to do so for Biden either.

What was inflation during Trump's reign? How did the stock market perform?

Here's the hard part:
The difference between inflation and stock market performance is what is important to investors. Low inflation, high market returns = good and the best possible scenario. High inflation, low market returns are the worst scenario. Biden's economy is somewhere in between. Not the worst, but not as good as Trumps. All of this, of course, assumes a healthy stock market is the end all and be all of a good economy. It's not, of course, but I'm trying to keep it simple for the magic money tree crowd, more commonly known as Democrats.

You guys are taking things so literally.... I have to say something.

You guys don't get it, do you? This thread is not about Biden, Dow, or Trump. It's about... the idiotic right-wing fan boys who kept giving Trump credit for things he didn't do.

We know Biden isn't entirely responsible for the stock market. Just as we told you guys Trump wasn't responsible for that stock market. If someone made a thread about Biden's big hands, the point isn't about Biden's hands... it's poking fun at the worshipping of the cultists on their cult leader.

You guys have to understand the subtext - the title and the content of this thread is purposely made to mimic how a right-wing cultist would give ridiculous credit to Trump. This thread is making fun of.... right-wing fan boys. You know who you are.

And none of you got it. SMH.

If it's not hypocritical, it's not Republican.

You may now resume your groveling to Sleepy Joe.
Sometimes, things are more complicated than "Dow is up. Biden good!"

Under Trump, the economy was growing. Employment was at max for every demographic. The economy was humming nicely.

Under Biden for only six months, he's - explicitly - undone everything Trump did. HE DIRECTLY SAID THAT WAS HIS GOAL. Well, you get what you vote for.

From this comment, you can clearly see no understanding of basic economics and how the stock market works.

Gas prices are skyrocketing, inflation is taking off, humanitarian crisis at the border, vaccine effort is faltering, institutional racism against white people is now a reality, reckless spending has put debit at levels which put the very existence of the country at risk.
