https://www.cnbc.com/2023/07/25/stock-market-today-live-updates.htmlI believe if it goes one more day, it will be the longest win-streak ever for the Dow. Now, there's more to the health of the economy than just the stock market, but I kept hearing during Trump's years about how well the market was doing. Anyone think the MAGAts will talk endlessly about how things are going now?
"I did that," indeed.

The 87 crash cost about $8 trillion in losses in today's dollars.
