Wild comeback: Dow recovers from 785-point plunge

Anyone with enough money to invest in the stock market had plenty to celebrate under the outgoing president: U.S. stocks rose an average of 12% a year during Obama’s two terms, according to S&P Global.

That ranks Obama 3rd among the 12 men who have served as president since World War II, based on the performance of the S&P 500. Only Bill Clinton (under whom stocks rose 14.9% a year over 8 years) and the late Gerald Ford (18.6% annualized during his 29 months in office) presided over better markets. For more detail, see the chart below.

Overall, the market rose 166.3% between Obama’s first day in office and the close of trading Thursday, his last day.

Historically, stocks have done better on average under Democratic presidents than Republican ones.

Ford is the only one who was impressive. The rules for investing were more restrictive back then.

Dispelling the myth that Obama increased the DOW by massive amounts beyond Trumps:

I’m still hoping for the 4% plus that Trump claimed wouid happen with his tax cuts! I still say, want growth, take back the 1% tax cuts and give it to the middle class!
 
The market that Trump Took credit for, down over 500 points today. He lied about having a deal with China, and a recession is coming. Obama never had a recession.
