It is comical how conservatives, especially their media, are now so eager

to embrace the Market as a significant economic indicator.

During the Obama years, when the Market climbed from 7949 to 19,732, they dismissed it as "not a true indicator of what's happening," "only characterizing Wall Street," "didn't represent the real America, the middle America, the guy on the street"

Now, it's celebrated, top news, a real sign of America getting greater, as I said, comical

The movement has nothing to do with the Dow. It's about personal GDP vs. taxes and the cost of living and jobs vs. lost jobs due to outsourcing.

I don't know where you're getting your information but we are not concerned with the stock market.

This is true..the DOW is welcome news, but the DOW is not what the working class ( by and large) is looking towards.
...well stated RABBIT..

"We are not concerned with the stock market?" What bubble do you live in? Today, the last couple of weeks for that matter, the Stock Market has been top news with conservatives and thier media, even the Don issued one of his famous tweets pointing out the Dow. Point being, the same sources for the last eight years have pretty much dismissed the Market as a noteworthy economic indicator, so doesn't it strike you strange why now?

Now you can pass, but please don't attempt to deflect employing economic terminology that has zero relevance to the post

Stated anyway, but it had nothing to do with the topic post, the inquiry was why in the past month is the Market taken as a good economic indicator when it was dismissed for the last eight years during which it was making a remarkable climb?

The Obama recovery was wide but not deep. lots of jobs,but until very very recently no wage gains - and lower paying jobs.
It's part of keeping good paying jobs here =MAGA
 
The FED propped up the economy under Obama with near zero interest rates.

Now that Trump is in, the FED is promising to raise interest rates, which should be driving the markets off a cliff ... but it's not.

Shlump has done virtually none of that.

Yet every time he makes some BS claim that he has, his gizz guzzlers run around high fiving and doing an end zone dance.

I'm not saying he won't accomplish it, but even though he hasn't yet, he and his goofy cheerleaders are acting like he has.

Silly OP. Is the market an indicator, or not?

If it is, Trump has done wonders since his election. If it isn't, those people you are disparaging were right.
