FACT: stocks/economy do BETTER when DEMS in WH!

Stocks perform better when
a Democrat is in the White House.
--  History proves it!

September 23

New York. President Trump has warned of economic and financial Armageddon
if Joe Biden and the Democrats retake the White House next year.
But history paints a very different story.

Both the stock market and the real economy tend to do better when Democrats,
NOT REPUBLICANS, are in charge!

Since 1945, the S&P 500 has averaged an annual gain of 11.2% during years
when Democrats controlled the White House, according to CFRA Research.
That's well ahead of the mere 6.9% average gain under Republicans.

"The market does do better under Democratic presidential control,"
said Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at CFRA Research.

Welcome back Fubah. Keep bringing that knowledge. 

Thanks Deezy! Ref made the correct call - I was wrong.

Meanwhile, YES, we have lots of politics/elections and correlated health/economic news
to catch up on!

Plenty more to come! Should generate some numerous discussions! :-)

So what do you think of the story in the first post (above)?

The divide is even more pronounced in the earliest days of a new administration:

During the first year of a Democratic presidential term, the S&P 500 has climbed
an average of 16.7%,

compared with 0.4% for Republicans.

That's despite Trump comments like
"Our record setting stock markets would literally CRASH!" (via a tweet last month)
and "If Joe Biden ever got in, I think you'd have a depression
the likes of which we have never seen in this country."

Ten of the last 11 recessions
began under GOP rule

But while Republicans used to be viewed as the more business-friendly of the
two major parties, economic growth is significantly slower under GOP rule.

* Since 1945, GDP grew by an average of 4.1% under Democrats,
compared with 2.5% under Republicans, according to CFRA.

That's partially because many economic expansions have died
during Republican administrations.

Ten of the last 11 recessions,
going back to the 1950s, started during a GOP-run White House.
The only exception was President Jimmy Carter

cant say i knew this  but it makes sense  looking back

history proves it

part of the reason is aftter the failed repo admin that preceeds it , the dems controlled economy has no were to go but up

Fubah2 is right.  Moody analytics examine 4 possible outcomes of November elections.  The best outcome for US economy would be a democrat sweep of white house and congress.  Greatest improvement in employment and economic growth expected because Biden plans to spend trillions on infrastructure, education and social safety net while boosting international trade and immigration.  Higher taxes proposed to fund plans wouldn't harm US economy in a meaningful way.  However a republican sweep would be the worst outcome for US economy because of Trump's proposed stimulus plans, greater trade tensions and cuts to immigration.

So let’s quote an economist , cuz they r always correct and impartial . But wait this guy donated to Clinton’s campaign . And what did he say bout Trump in 2016 . at best , “Employment barely budges in the first two years, and over his four years as president just over 2.8. Million. And yet Trump actually created 6.7 million over just 3 years . Gmab y’all r nothing but lefty cheerleaders 

very stark contrast   

dems r just better at managing an economy .

History shows America does ‘far better’ economically
when a Democrat is in the White House: analyst

Simon Rosenberg of the liberal think tank NDN, explained that there is statistical proof
that Americans prosper under Democratic presidents.
The traditional view of the major political parties is that Republicans, as the party of
big business — are stronger on economics, but hard numbers don’t show that to be true.

According to a presentation Rosenberg has prepared that uses numbers dating back to 1989,
“The economy does better—far better— when we have Democratic presidents.

In terms of job creation, median income, health care, and yep, even the stock market,
the economy does better—the American people do better—under Democratic presidents.
By a mile!”

gdp is the common but broad standard for assessing the strength of an economy .  theres more of course , particularly debts .but in one single stat that says more than any other single stat so its intersting to see the economy under dems performs far better  by almost 65% than when repos rule
