Trump has DOW up over 24000

Obama passed a stimulus that ended the recession 4 month later. Bush meanwhile caused two recessions.

Is that right? so then the deficit of 1.4 trillion dollars was Obama's and not Bush's since the stimulus money was spent? The loss of 3 million jobs(142 million to 139 Million) up to 2 years later was Obama's and not Bush's. Thanks for finally seeing the light and understanding data.

Job growth was excellent. He reduced the bush 10% unemployment rate to 4%.
 
Obama directed the stimulus bill, and called for it to be ready for signing after his inauguration

Yes, with incredible results, 142 million employed down to 139 million two years later and of those

Obama inherited 142 million employed and 8.4 million part time for economic reason employment and two years later we had 139 million employed with 8.5 million part time for economic reasons. Thank you Obama for such great economic results that Democrats lost the House in 2010-2012 and the Congress in 2014-2016 giving us Trump as President

He sure did and all those employees that were part time for economic reasons and couldn't find a job in that booming economy loved his record. Context matters except to you. Results don't matter either to you as has been posted time and time again only to be ignored by you. What is it about liberalism that creates people like you who cannot admit when wrong?

Actually lot of the jobs were high paying white collar jobs.

LOL, more opinions with nothing to support it but in your world opinions trump reality in the liberal world

Put this in your pipe

2017 November 153.9 million employed and 4.8 million part time = 149.1 employed full time

2016 November 152.0 million employed 5.6 million part time+ 146.4 employed full time.

Obama's record after 8 years is a disaster

You do realize 2017 belongs to obama according to your own standard?

Oh, absolutely, there is no question about it, 2017 is all Obama and I thank him every day for giving us Trump. Amazing how much better his numbers are now that he is out of office.

Liberal logic, Obama ended the recession with his 842 billion dollar stimulus plan but the 2009 deficit was all Bush's and the worst recovery in history was Bush's. Those are the liberal standards, if bad blame the R and take credit for anything perceived as good. Problem is the actual data in context isn't good but the left like you are incapable of doing your own research and buy the rhetoric.

Rather interesting how many disagree with you regarding ending the recession but still your ideology prevents you from admitting you are wrong as you continue to let the radical left make you look foolish

What Ended the Great Recession?
 
45 comes in 3rd with 18% growth after 11 months in office compared to 43's 19.6% and 44 with 38%. Thanks, Obama!
 
No sorry I didn't vote for Obama therefore I didn't vote for a community agitator who built a career on failure. Obama did indeed fail as the results show but the problem is the radical left prays for failure to advance their dependence agenda. Thank you Obama for giving us Trump who is reversing the 8 years of Obama failures. all those so called incredible results of Obama benefited the few radicals that supported him. Losing the House in 2010-2012 and the entire Congress in 2014-2016 shows the true results of the Obama record.

Don't forget that he backed one of the worst ponies for his political heir, possibly the worst political candidate ever to take the stand.

Her stain will always be a part of his legacy, no matter how insignificant his legacy was in the end.

What Ended the Great Recession?

Did you actually link an opinionated commentary from 2009 to try to disprove what is common knowledge now? Time has passed and economists, financial advisers, and historians have all had time to see the clearer picture and generally agree...

In March 2009, Congress approved his $787 billion Economic Stimulus Plan, also called ARRA. It ended the recession by July of that year.[/URL]

So the Act was driven by Democratic priorities, passed in a close-to-party-line vote, and overall achieved most of what was promised. In Blinder and Zandi’s analysis—Blinder is a Democrat, Zandi a Republican and former adviser to John McCain’s campaign—the fiscal stimulus reduced the unemployment rolls by as much as 3 million and kept the economy from contracting around 2%. Overall role: Substantial.


In February 2008, President George W. Bush signed the so-called Economic Stimulus Act into law. The legislation provided taxpayers with rebates ($600 to $1,200), which they were encouraged to spend; reduced taxes; and increased the loan limits for federal home loan programs (for example, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac).

This last element was designed to, hopefully, generate new home sales and provide a boost to the economy. The so-called “Stimulus Package” also provided businesses with financial incentives for capital investment.

In his first few weeks in office, President Obama signed a second “Stimulus Package” into law, this time earmarking $787 billion for tax cuts as well as spending on infrastructure, schools, health care and green energy.

Whether or not these initiatives brought about the end of the Great Recession is a matter of debate. However, at least officially, the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) determined that, based on key economic indicators (including unemployment rates and the stock market), the downturn in the United State officially ended in June 2009.

If you weren't so concerned with branding everything beyond the end of your nose as simply the "radical left," so absolutely petrified of all things Obama, and less enthusiastic to worship Trump for breathing, you wouldn't make such foolish posts. I am tired of having to correct your skewed and partisan enslaved arguments.


** By the way, this is a funny thread, huh? A thread that celebrates the greatness of Trump over a single Dow day in November, "because of the idea of tax-cuts," and today being one of the largest Dow falls in recent years, after a bad January month, and after the tax-cut? Too funny. This is what happens when you people leash yourselves up and attach your souls to a politician.

What was a bit ironic is that when 45 was giving a speech on jobs, wages, investment, false claim that his tax cut was the biggest evah, and general bragging about his greatness Shep Smith broke in with a Fox News Alert about the tanking Market.
 
And, he did it with a straight face, ataraxia.
 
At least the title of the thread is still true ... for now.
 
Live by the DOW, die by the Dow. I wonder if President Buffoon even understands economics.

BTW: we can cure those inflation fears by importing more....you know, workers.
 
It's a record!
https://www.usatoday.com/story/mone...rejoice-dow-tops-24-000-first-time/908383001/

he Dow, which has jumped more than 300 points, notched a fresh milestone Thursday, topping 24,000 for the first time, adding to the sizable 2017 gains of 401(k) investors that have exposure to stocks in their retirement accounts.

Right after the start of trading today, the blue chip stock index ticked above the big number. At its high point Thursday, it was up as much as 387 points at a new intraday record of 24,327.82.

The Dow is on track for its best day of the year.


Optimism abounds apparently! Must be because of that anticipated cut in the Corporate tax rate. GOP finally got something right. Well maybe.-see how it plays out but I think that will stick

what goes up must come down ..........
 
Hows it feel today NoNo?

Great. I am glad the market finally took a breath. DOW has recovered pretty good. I am still trying to talk the wife into a dual engine fixed wing of some type, that can carry at least 6 passengers.

Thanks for your concern.
