The Dow's 31% gain during Trump's first year is the best since FDR

So, not only is Obama responsible for everything good that happens in Trump's first year, but Obama is also responsible for anything good that happens in Trump's second year???

LMFAO!

 

Trump has made a complete fool of Obozo. He has been more successful in his first year than the first muslim president did in 8. Funny thing, it wasn't even hard. Barry could have lifted his boot of the people's neck at any time but he was not going to do that.

 

Ok, 401k:

"Two-thirds of all Americans don’t contribute anything to a 401(k) or other retirement account available through their employer.
Millions aren’t saving on the job because they either don’t have access to a workplace retirement plan or they do but aren’t putting money in it."

"The average balance in all 50 million 401(k) accounts is just over $60,000, according to the Employee Benefit Research Institute."

That will generate $200 per month for life.

And the median amount is $18,433.
Almost 40 percent of employees have less than $10,000
Older workers do tend to have more savings. At Vanguard, for example, the median for savers aged 55 to 64 in 2013 was $76,381.

And that will generate $255/month for life.

Retirement Fund:
What "retirement fund"? The government did away with defined benefit plans for the most part. So what "retirement fund is there but 401k plans and IRAs?

 

From your OP article:

Some investors believe Trump is getting too much credit for the run-up and it's really the strength of the global economy boosting these industrial stocks.

"There is clearly a coincidence between Trump's election and the run-up in stock prices over the past year," Ed Yardeni, president and chief investment strategist at Yardeni Research, said in a note earlier this week. "However, coinciding with Trump's victory was mounting evidence of a global synchronized boom. In our opinion, the run-up in stock prices over the past year has been a continuation of the bull market within a bull market that started on February 12, 2016."

 

Ok so you have a fantasy followed by 2 lies. You must be a rightie.

 

I think it's funny how the brainwashed give Obama who said one to 2% growth was the new Norm credit for 4% growth. The guy that said those jobs are never coming back and Trump has no magic wand to fix the economy the credit for the jobs coming back and the economy suddenly getting fixed.

 

Certainly if the competition is Cory Booker or Elizabeth Warren, or some other hack. This time around, Trump can point to credentials and when the Russian Conspiracy dies down, he'll get a bulk more of independent voters, leading to a larger win just like **gasp** Reagan's victory over Mondale was higher than his victory over Ford.

 

which still came no where near to increasing by 150%.

 

huh?

 

Anyone notice how the brainwash drones aren't like "what took you so long Obama"

 

2017 was still a 100% Obamanomics.
That is what you get when you're too busy playing golf.

 

Sure. Facts are facts.

 

Why did it take Obama all this time to fix the economy? It's like he waited till after he was out of office and the Republican shredded everything he did for the economy to take off.

 

See, when you say ignorant **** like this, nobody can take you seriously.

 

yep. and the fact is yours did not go up 150% in a single year.

 

Says the guy that says ice agents aren't real federal law enforcement officers and nothing but petty thugs.

 

Whatever floats your boat.

 

I will give you $25,000 dollars if you can quote me every saying any such thing.

 

Unpaid-for tax cuts (i.e. stimulus) blowing up an asset bubble. Who would have thought. We've been down that road before, and then some, with the subsequent great recession. Want a repeat?

 

Dirty Donnie has The Herd of right-wing amateur investors stampeding into this elevated market.

LOL

They'll eventually lose their shirts, as usual, when this thing (inevitably) blows.

Got plenty of "dry powder" at the ready when that blood starts pouring down Broad and Wall...

I get it, I can't take anything you say seriously.

 

The truth hurts. Try to work through it.

 

I know. Reality and facts tend to drive conservatives, particularly the fevered ODS/CDS folks, insane.

 

no need. I hope his State of the Union address is more like an annual shareholders meeting where he cites facts, going forward concerns and plans for the year. He needs to get this nation focused on results and not touchy feely crap that Democrats want.

He could get so much going in 4 years that the people won't want to return to the nonsense that Democrats pitch

 

You're right my bad, it was the other illegal immigrant apologist in the California Democrats seek to punish citizens that assist ice thread.
