    I hate to burst your bubble, but the market did better under Obama than under Trump. Both in average gain per year, and in the first 30 months of their presidencies.

    low resolution thinking.

    a rebound from a crash is far easier than mid cycle expansion.... for the former you've got infrastructure and workers on temporary pause, simply coming back to productivity once the liquidity is available... apples to oranges to mid cycle expansion where deregulation and tax cut give incentives to companies to hire more..

    what did Obama do exactly? nothing... which happened to be partly what the economy needed at the time, for the central bankers to sort things out.... don't give credit when credit isn't due.

    My response to do with credit to Obama or Trump. My response was to the poster that stated that if Trump wasn't reelected the markets would crash. The fact is that the stock market does better under Democratic administrations, and has nothing to do with who is the president.

    Of course, he could die tomorrow from illness. However, history gives him greater odds of staying in power longer than Trump. Even in Africa, you don't topple a dictator every day.

    And yet on Wednesday night all the “Woke” Democratic candidates tore President Obama down.

    Well, if Warren or Sanders wins in 2020 that would be a Socialist Administration. Their policies certainly wouldn’t look like any previous Democratic President in history. Even President Obama admitted that he would be a “Republican” comparatively speaking.

    Looks like I'm going to need some of that luck! The move in bonds has some follow-through. Still haven't touched the the strike yet. I feel confident enough to add to the position if it goes further in this direction though.
