Obama Winning Investors by 49%-38% Against Romney in Poll
By Mike Dorning - May 10, 2012 5:00 PM PT

Global investors increasingly prefer President Barack Obama to Republican challenger Mitt Romney and most say they believe the incumbent will remain in the White House for another four years.

Asked who would be the better leader for the global economy, 49 percent favor Obama against 38 percent for Romney, according to a quarterly Bloomberg Global Poll. In January, the two candidates tied on the question.

By the same margin, they say Obama has a better vision for the U.S. economy, according to the survey of 1,253 Bloomberg customers, who are investors, analysts or traders.

Obama “managed the U.S. economy pretty well, solving a lot of imbalances created by the previous administration,” says poll respondent Mario Di Marcantonio, 35, a senior portfolio manager at Eurizon Capital in Milan.

that the Presidents policies are the only thing keeping our economy out of depression and creating jobs month after month. I don't expect them to start endorsing Democrats, even though they're crazy not to. Everyone, except cry baby Bohner and pouty boy Paul Ryan know that austerity is killing this economy and Europe's too. Investors and business are finally waking up to Keynesian economics, which all the Nobel prize winning economists have been endorsing for a couple years now, but we can't trust them because they're "elitists".

VOTE A STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC BALLOT get the neanderthal republiCONs out of Congress!
