Markets go up and down. Please post your links to when markets went down every time they were reacting to something Biden.

How would that information help us NOW?

By the way and talking about data, statistics and facts:

In the first term of Trump, the DOW on January 31, 2017, was at 19884 and in January 31st, 2021 (when Biden took over) it was at 29984. That is a 34% rise in value.

As such, when Biden began his term, the DOW was at 29984 and when Trump took over, it was at 44546, meaning it went up 33%, Since the end of January 2025 (when Trump took over again, the DOW was at 44546 and today it closed at 48488, meaning that the DOW has gone up 8% in one year. "IF" that continues at the same rate, at the end of 4 years, the DOW will have gone up 32%. This means that Trump has not done (or is doing) better than Biden did.

Nonetheless, this is the statement Trump has made in the past and again today.



Under Obama, his first term, the DOW went from 8000 to 13860 (a 43% rise) and under his 2nd term, the DOW went from 13860 to 19884 (a 31% rise).

This means that Trump is a liar as his ego will never allow him to tell the truth.

This is due to Trump's words on acquiring Greenland and also due to the statement he made about raising

AI Overview

The stock market is opening lower today, January 20, 2026, primarily due to President Trump's escalating threats of massive tariffs on European imports (especially over Greenland) and potential retaliatory actions, creating significant global trade uncertainty and driving a risk-off sentiment, with investors also reacting to rising Japanese bond yields and ongoing tech sector concerns
.
AI Overview

When the stock market drops by 2%, it represents a decline in total market capitalization of roughly
$2.5 trillion to $3 trillion, based on 2025 global equity values of over $140 trillion.

This is a perfect example of how American investors (and world investors in U.S. stocks) see Trump's actions, and this is not a positive (but a negative) response to what he is doing. Goes to prove that generally speaking, Trump is hurting the U.S. and not MAGA.

/----/ Well, your rant didn't age well.
