Thank you President Trump in pumping up the stock market thus far. It has given We The Believers nice sums of money earned from the acceleration of the market place. And if he gets his proposed tax plan gets approved we are off to the races once again. Yes, upward and onward. Then after that if both sides of the aisle can agree mutually to a decent, fair, healthcare plan the market will take off once again upward towards the stars. I love it!

I haven’t day traded for many years now. I am a short term or longer term trader. Stay in and let the market make you happy. Always remember, it’s ok to lose every so often as long as you win a lot more. Win 75% of the time and you have no worries.

it sure is a wonderful continuation, pull up a weekly chart of the sp 500 and look at that wonderful incline from 2009, who was the president then?

in case someone is chart handicapped :
"Of course, the vast majority of those gains occurred under Obama. The stock market more than tripled during Obama's eight years in office as the U.S. economy recovered from the recession."
of course , all you dudes who felt the need to daytrade , missed that fantastic incline. what is three times
your investment.?

The market does not care who is President. I know you all like rooting for the home team and "your" guy, but the market will go where it wants when it wants to. Bear markets always (not sometimes, not most of the time, and not usually) follow bull markets. Since we are in a bull market now, you know what comes next, it's just a matter of when (and I can't say when).
Stay vigilant! You will need to bail on your buy and hold positions eventually to avoid the coming pain. Of course, you know that - that is why you are looking at charts on a daily basis. If you were a true buy and hold believer, you would buy your positions, spend your time doing something more fulfilling, and wait for Trump to make you rich!

spauken: "wait for trump to make you rich" ' that's a guess , and an uneducated guess at that, how did the market do when bush cut taxes, that was the low point in 2008 prior to Obama, how do you cut taxes ,
and pay for the wall, texas, florida, puerto rico, the military, and that great health care plan he promised a hundred times. what do fiscal conservatives do when income decreases, spend more?
you who toot the trump market increase cannot deny the Obama increase, it's the same chart but the right loves to dismiss the gains under O. . the sp500 chart cannot be denied, the sp500 tripled during O term.
read the chart in its entirety, the left is lovely!

klynn55: Please re-read my post in its entirety. Don't get me wrong, I am neither a Trump fan nor an Obama fan. The comment about Trump making us rich was sarcasm. I fully expect the market to tank sometime soon.

any I don't have any idea what the market will do, and the sp500 chart speaks for itself,
from 2009 to 2017 , the chart can not be denied! so if trump gets a hurrah for his gains,
obama should get a parade !
