    The four charts below show the gains for the Dow 30 Industrials that Trump tends to tweet and talk about and the S&P 500, which provides a broader view of the stock market.

    The first two start with inauguration dates. Since their respective inaugurations the Dow is up 19% under Trump and over the same timeframe it increased 65% under Obama.

    (Emphasis Added)

    (Also, keep in mind, this article was posted BEFORE Today"s Crash)

    https://www.forbes.com/sites/chuckj...s-the-dow-enters-bear-territory/#cb2c7b7776c6

    So?

    What was the Big deal about Trump's Stock Market Again?

    These charts show that Obama's Market did BETTER.

    And these chas don't even take into account today's catastrophic LOSSES.

    Thoughts?

    They show fake news and ignorance.

    Trends matter. Snapshots in time do not.

    There is no downward trend. As soon as the virus blows by the market will be back up.

    You don't know very much about the market do you.

    All that I see in "Trump's Markets" are LOST VALUES in the TRILLIONS.

    Just in the last month.

    Is that what "Winning" and #MAGA are all about?

    Hopefully (after today's massive) dip, Trump's Market is reaching bottom.

    People's 401k gains (since Jan.2017) have been (virtually) wiped out.

    We are in a bear market. That means that the stock has fallen at least 20% off a recent high.

    And they will be back. That's how it goes.

    My family has made tons of money in the market. This means nothing.

    It took Eurasia to essentially be shut down for Trump's worse to match Obama's best numbers.

    Gotcha

    Of course the markets are down. Anyone trying to make this political is just an *******.

    When the Corona Virus diminishes, the markets will explode up.

    If you think you know more about the stock market than the folks who are currently invested and loosing trillions, you should rethink whether you actually know anything.

    Honestly, MrT., regardless of anyone's political lean:

    It seems utterly unfathomable that anyone would claim that:

    "There is no downward trend".

    The Market HAS LOST/IS LOSING Trillions.

    Just wait for the market to recover and the left will be praising Obama’s economy again.

    Of course. Trump gets credit for the good, and absolved for anything bad.
    Least accountable president in history.

    Wait just a minute there Slick, Tramp told us that the virus was already diminishing to near zero in a few days on Feb 26, 2020, so why aren't the markets exploding up?????

    https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing...bers-coronavirus-task-force-press-conference/

    And again, when you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that’s a pretty good job we’ve done.

    I wouldn't necessarily bash Trump over a market crash that was going to happen anyway, but I wasn't the one that kept bragging about the market.

    Live by the DJIA, die by the DJIA. Sucks to be you, right now, Trump.

    In Trump's Eyes, he actually believes that.

    Trump takes credit for the Good Work of Others and nothing is ever his fault (as he tries to saddle others with his failures).

    FACT: This Market Crash is 100% on Trump. He OWNS it. Period.

    And then the DOW went on to log the 4th largest percentage drop and the single largest raw point drop.
