    You're with your dwarf on an expired green card, Lucrum. Baron doesn't have a pic of your docs.

    The lyrics...



    I want to lie,
    Shipwrecked and comatose,
    Drinking fresh mango juice..
    Goldfish shoals,
    Nibbling at my toes.

    Fun, fun, fun,
    In the sun sun sun...

    I'm sure he's just saying that because everyone is against him. If you're long the market you're long Trump. He absolutely needs to keep the market propped to win re-election. Unlike Obama, nobody likes him, but he can deliver. If the market tanks, the only way he'll win is if the democratic nomintee is Michael Avenatti.

    Not necessarily. For a risk off macro view Trump has been the best thing ever.

    Except the markets (Dow, S&P, Nasdaq) had larger percentage moves pre-tRump days aka when the "Socialist" was in the White House. Real Estate too.

    All relative. 3% when SPX@1000 or 1% when SPX@3000.

    Comparing apples to giraffes. Like I have said many times percentages matter. Not points. Not starting or ending points other than time periods.

    So the cumulative percentage return is 47.6% during Obama years compared to tRump's (current) 26.7% over the same elapsed time in office. See link:

    https://www.macrotrends.net/2482/sp500-performance-by-president

    And as it shows the full cumulative percentage return is 175.9% during Obama's time so tRump's got so catching up to do and then some. Hey does the fake media know about this?

    Actually true, it was the people who borrowed and the people who lent that were hurt. Those who had a mortgage company and package loans to others were printing money back then.

    Talk about comparing apples to giraffes... Obama showed up in a market that had been hammered down, and Trump after 7 years of bullmarket, quite different upside on both timestamps
