I knew that NYcarbineer would say that...and so would Obama. It really is am using that they grab at anything to say there was something positive on Obama's watch. Hell, he could have a heartache and die and the stock market would go crazy high. NY would say what a great president he was...the Dow doubled on his watch, lol.
You think the market is insignificant? You out of the same crowd that wants Social Security invested in the market?
If your SS WAS in the market, would you prefer 250% up in 8 years,
or about 30% DOWN in 8 years, as it was under Bush?
oh, and up 200% during Clinton's 8 years.
