(82,849 posts)Spend any time at all interacting with a trollbot, and the stock market numbers will surely make an appearance. Of course, compared to the performance of the market under Obama, the Trump stock market is performing anemically. If the market was doing as well under Trump as it did under Obama, we'd be seeing numbers north of 33,000.

(12,712 posts)of the population holds a large percentage of the stocks, we can cheer for whom the boom is booming on.
In a general sense, if we don't decouple our view of the stock market from the reality on our respective main streets, we are still playing along with a trickle down mentality, our thirsty mouths agape as we look up and maybe some yellow drops touch our tongues now and then.
Do well, you boom recipients whomever you are. For most of us, its getting close to that time where the bills are due, the paycheck is gone and our brows furrow and our stomachs clench as we make important decisions like: food, rent, or medications, heat? You can't have it all, you know, even when you live in a luxury tent.
