    Come on. That's an awfully simplistic analysis.

    https://www.cnbc.com/2017/08/02/insa...not-trump.html

    All major stock indexes — including the Dow — are in record territory, even though the Trump administration has failed to deliver on key legislative promises. But other factors are at play.

      He's also worried about Trump colluding with the Russians to win the election and nuclear war with NK. The first hasn't been proven and will not be and the second isn't going to happen.

        That's it? No other concerns about a Trump presidency?

        Phew. Frank, we can all relax.

                  Markets have been on a great run since 2012. And a linear trend since Feb 2016.

                      The table in this article is interesting.

                      http://www.marketwatch.com/story/oba...uly-2017-08-01

                      Best president in the modern era for stock market gains? Obama.
                      Worst president? GWB.

                      I hope Trump ends up topping that. In spite of his imbecility and anti-market tendencies.

                        SO, taking your posts together, you think Obama should get credit for being great for markets, and perhaps GWB blame for being bad for markets, and that other, non-presidential factors have driven the market during Trump's presidency so he gets zero credit (although one of the articles you linked did note the likely positive effect of his de-regulation efforts on business)?
                        PLesa excuse the tpyos.

                              Well I left out the other conspiracy theories and the news articles from left-wing sites.

                                Interesting. I wonder if the fellow authoring the article knows what the Fed did and what mark to market accounting is.

                                I wonder what the genius Cuban (Mark). He advised Everton to get out if Trump one. I heard Soros lost a billion or two. I feel real bad about that.

                                I have a soft spot in my heart for predictors of doom.
