The stock market is really liking the prospects of a Biden presidency"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

No matter how much you hate on Trump, the past 4 years has caused my 401K to nearly triple in comparison to the past 8 years under Obama.
I expect the market will be cautious of what Biden will do, but having a GOP controlled senate will help ease that concern. At least I hope..

The market and the economy have been out of sync this year, so caution moving forward is reasonable. However, tying the market to the president always leaves me scratching my head.Originally posted by dabrockster View PostI am bracing for my retirement funds to tank the next 4 years.

Timing of big events plays a lot into this (housing bubble bursting, Covid, tarp, etc) but as JL said, markets do just as fine or better under Dems than they do under the gop. Biden is an old school democrat when it comes to the economy. The more predictable the bettter and getting out of the crazy tariff/trade war crap and the stupid tweets will help a lot.Originally posted by old_gregg View Postspy performance during obama's first term was 50% higher than trump's, numb nuts"Discipleship is not a spectator sport.

that 100% cuts both ways. and, again for the record, index performance is a stupid metric for assessing economic performance.Originally posted by Moliere View PostTiming of big events plays a lot into this (housing bubble bursting, Covid, tarp, etc) but as JL said, markets do just as fine or better under Dems than they do under the gop.

Market performance under Obama vs Trump first four years is a win for Obama.
There’s a huge financial illiteracy with most people in regards to the market and performance.
If your balance tripled in 4 years under Trump vs 8 years under Obama it means you either contributed a lot more, weren’t invested in the market during the Obama years, or are Warren Buffett.
It’s not because Trumps market is better than Obama’s.
