Gallup’s Economic Confidence Index soared 13 points last week to turn positive for the first time since March 2015 in the wake of Donald Trump’s White House victory.
Republicans' economic outlook also improved drastically.
Gallup's Economic Confidence Index moved from a slightly negative evaluation (-10) to a slightly positive one (+3). The index had been consistently negative throughout the year leading up to the election.
The increase in economic confidence mostly stems from Republicans' more positive views after Republican Donald Trump won the election. Gallup has previously noted that Americans view the economy through a political lens. Republicans have had a dismal view of the economy -- especially of its future direction -- during Democratic President Barack Obama's two terms.
“After Trump won last week's election, Republicans and Republican-leaning independents now have a much more optimistic view of the U.S. economy's outlook than they did before the election. Just 16% of Republicans said the economy was getting better in the week before the election, while 81% said it was getting worse. Since the election, 49% say it is getting better and 44% worse,” Gallup reported.

So. Much. Winning. Nope, not tired of it yet.
There was supposed to be a stock market crash, with an earth-shattering KABOOM. Where’s the KABOOM?
“So. Much. Winning. Nope, not tired of it yet.”
And I’ll never get tired of it. This reminds me so much about how the nation was uplifted by the Reagan landslide in 1980. Dutch had a way of making Americans feel good about themselves.
Never thought I would see the likes of Reagan again in my lifetime. I was wrong.
I knew it. I just knew it.
I bailed on bonds and went to stocks.
Note how Big Media is SPIKING this story...
As it should. HOORAY Mr. Donald J. Trump. Thank you, sir.
I know I plan to start spending after Trumps inauguration.
Hoping the decent, hard-working younger people get to experience real prosperity in their lifetimes. In America, greatness is always one election away. This might have been it. How cool will it be to see the big economic engine roar to life one more time. I’m 67 and I was thinking I’d not see it again. Now...
Go Trump.
