As frowns turn to smiles for most, will Democrats scramble to find bad news, or be content to credit Woodrow Wilson for today's rally?

What will economic well-being do for the mental health of Democrats?

Anxious to embrace theories ranging from Trump as the second coming of Hitler to a looming recession which will sweep a new criminal into the White House, will interventions be needed?
 
The DOW isn't the market.

And even still, the DOW is 200 points lower than it was twenty months ago.
 
The Dow is really sensitive to any kind of news. It seems like it's not rational at times.
 
Says it all, huh?

Which makes this a risky time to invest in a lot of stocks.

Once tariff prices start getting passed on to consumers over the coming months, the economy will really start to puke.

Democrats didn't create the yield curve or its history of predicting recessions. It's not Democrats who are predicting a recession, it's economists.

You don't believe scientists so why believe economists?

LOL!!! Economics isn't science. You take observable information and form opinions which are usually skewed to your ideology to make your side sound good. Then, you have what are known as the "Bulls" and the "Bears." Those are people who are generally either positive personalities or negative personalities. They will see the glass either half full or half empty no matter what. They base their conclusions on what feels good to them. Right now, many economists are from universities who are heavily infiltrated by liberal leftists Democrats with an agenda to get rid of Trump any possible means. The Russian hoax didn't work. Racism isn't working. They are trying to say Trump is anti-semitic when his own daughter and grandchildren are Jewish and he helped make Jerusalem the capitol of Israel among other support he giving Israel. They now are trying their hand at recession talk when there is no indication of a recession. The yield curves have worked for a couple of recessions but not for all of them. Different time and different President this time. Science and economics. LOL!!!

Good job comrade. I especially liked, "Right now, many economists are from universities who are heavily infiltrated by liberal leftists Democrats with an agenda to get rid of Trump any possible means." Goebbels would be proud!
 
It barely even makes sense. Its almost as screwy as sociology. But at least there's math.

The DOW Industrial Average on August 21, 2017 was at 21,703. Today, it closed at 26,202. That's a 2 years rise of 20.73%. From November 9, 2016 (We know why that is a significant date), the rise was from 18,589 to 26,202, a 40.59% rise. Why did you pick 20 months? This is what Democrats and those with TDS do. They go crazy to find something bad that doesn't exist. The markets, especially the DOW is in business to attempt to give some kind of idea how the economy is doing over a long period of time. Same is true with the S%P 500, which has gone up about twice as much as the DOW.

And, as economists know so they can make money and write books, math can be manipulated and is done so with economics.

9000 points, actually, which is also how much it went up under Obama.

We know that from studies that universities are about 90-95% Democrats liberal administrators and teachers. The deplorable's are the janitors and food cooks. It's just a fact. Oh, I forgot. Your great leader, Joe Biden says facts over truth.
:2rofll:

Joe Biden is Moe in the middle while the other two are Sanders and Pocahontas. :stooges

Which is irrelevant since the entire economy is much better off with Trump's engineering. Much lower unemployment with blacks, hispanics, women and teenagers for summer work. Best in 50+ years. GDP has been way better with Trump including the statement by Obama that it would never go above 2% again! And, Obama said manufacturing jobs and businesses would never come back to the U.S. and they have with abundance! We are now the number one country in energy. We don't have to buy from OPEC and others. Our military has quickly been made whole against after being dismantled by Obama. The wealth divide between whites and blacks has been cut in half, something Obama actually made worse. But, keep on trying to make Obama look good when he was your typical weak Democrat President and politician.

False. But keep praying for a recession. Its your only hope to beat Trump in 2020 and everyone knows it.

LOL!!! Quit while you are not too far behind. When it stopped growing. Do you really think that through the history of the stock markets in America that they always continually go up and never correct? Even for long periods of times? It doesn't mean people aren't making money in the stock market either. There have been decades where there was no growth or even a slight decline. Yet, when you look back to say 1900, the market has always continued to go up because the economy will always go up.

What's important is if the economy is going up fast enough. Then, the stock investors attempt to decide how fast and how slow. So, the market spikes up and down. But, over time, it has always continued up. So, what is really important is that the United States remains a capitalist nation with liberty and freedom. That the Constitution stays as the law of the land. It's important that we don't allow deranged evil minded socialists-communists-fascists to enter in and control our country. Unfortunately, we have allowed our universities and now lower education to be infiltrated by those deranged evil minded persons with their Green New Deal communist takeover plan.

Pretty easy to go up from the bottom hence why Trumps stock market has 149 historical highs from Obama's best effort.
