Let me change your recollection, the one where MSNBC didn't report on the incredible MASSIVE increases for the DJIA in that 1st year of Donald Trump's Presidency.

Dow Jones Industrial Average UP by 25%!!!!

Went from December 30th of 2016

Closing at 19,819

To December 29th of 2017

http://www.dow-jones-djia.com/2017/12/29/the-dow-market-happenings-for-friday-december-29-2017/

Closing at 24,837.

Do you have your calculator handy??  If not let me just post this little fact from the DJIA website:

Year-to-date the Dow is up +25.68%  -  Trump's first year in office


Care to discuss that??

It is called the Stock Market, it goes up and down.  

Do you need a refresher course?   

It may be down more tomorrow, it may be UP more tomorrow, but your CNN links never seem to cover the news that is positive?  

Oh that's right, they're objective!   LOL 
I'm sure everybody looking at their 401k's now are thrilled with your analysis...

Richard needs to read and comprehend the title of this thread but since he likely lacks any investments in the market he probably could care less...
