This is not everyones most urgent concern. Why do you continue to act as if no response indicates anything? Get a life?In the first place, it was not the biggest gain in history, but in "nearly a decade" biggest single-day percentage gains for the indexes in nearly a decade. Tho the same source says Christmas Eve was a historical drop. Happy for you that things are looking up but as i said on the other thread, neither one day nor one man make the economy nor a market trend.

Also, when it goes up, you say it's due to rump. When it drops, you claim it goes up and down. In the past, you would have blamed Obama for a big drop, so you can really stop trying to bait people, Randall.IP: Logged |

So you are quoting the Fake News as being more accurate than NASDAQ.com? Priceless 😘The difference between "points gain" and "percentage gain" is subtle, maybe that's what's making the bee in your bonnet buzz? Its all relative.

Instead of an anti-business, pro-regulation President, we have a booming economy-driven President, so we know the factors that caused it to drop.IP: Logged |

People who work in the market attribute the big declines to many factors. Like poor policies, govt shutdown, trade wars .. and global economic issues. Nowhere, except in conservative rags, do they cite an imminent Dem House as the cause! Fancy that!DT called O weak because he couldn't bludgeon the majority opposition party into doing his bidding. Well guess what, they have just done the same to DT... and they are his own party, not the opposition. By his own estimation, he should be fired! IP: Logged |

President Trump is such a great deal maker that he could sell rice to the Chinese. Wait! He actually did just that! China is buying rice from us now. #winningIP: Logged |

There's nothing subtle about the difference between a point gain and a percentage gain. A one dollar stock that goes to 2 dollars has gained 100%...but only one dollar in value. And, you tried to change a point gain..which was the subject of the posted article, to a percentage gain, trying to show it's no big deal for the Dow to gain 1080 points in a single day. Well, it's the biggest point gain in the history of the Dow..and a very big deal. IP: Logged |

Let us fairly applaud the big recovery.
My point is that if Trump Cult gives all credit for a rise in the markets to Trump, then the Cult should be sportive enough to accept the blame for Trump during a crash.Recently, blame was given to Dems winning the House for the crash, so can the credit for the recovery also go to Dems winning the House? Edit: Another 500 point fall today. Who gets the blame? If it recovers, credit goes to the same Factor. If it falls more, then blame goes to the same Factor. Let there be objectivity. IP: Logged |

Yeah Randall, Trump's economic policies are creating high paying jobs way above minimum wage rates. Not much wrong with Chief Warren that a brain cell infusion wouldn't help. IP: Logged |

Yeah, we know. The stock market will crash next Monday, Tuesday at the latest. Leftist lunatics will be ecstatic to see Americans lose equity in their pension retirement funds and Mutual Funds...Michael Bloomberg will be cheering. Btw, the 'natural trend' of the market is up...over the last 150 years. The markets make 'new all time highs' regularly, but seldom, if ever  , makes a 'new...all time low'. IP: Logged |

Yes, exactly. Not saying it's about to crash, at all. But it's interesting that the astounding high of 1928, which many thought would last forever, is so tiny compared to today. There are several factors in the rising numbers that have nothing to do with general prosperity...IP: Logged |

You're not saying the stock market is going to crash. Yet, that was the thrust of that Bloomberg article as the moronic writer attempted to link the crash of 1929 with the market conditions of today. As for general prosperity, in general, anyone who has a city, county, state, corporate or union pension fund invested in the stock market, anyone who owns a mutual fund or has a personal retirement account invested in the stock market IS realizing the 'general prosperity'.

 Bloomberg article? The Time article i read and posted does start out with what some people would call "famous last words", but the bulk of the piece is not about that at all. But i can't argue with your interp, since it seems to be about a different piece altogether. Not interested in the football team approach at all. So, as you were.. as it were 😘 IP: Logged |
