I’m sure the Dems will find the one person in America who didn’t benefit.
Unexpected...
We were told that the evil Trump’s tariffs would destroy America.
LOL!!! Liberal talking heads are exploding.
(S&P 500 also at record high.)
“I’m sure the Dems will find the one person in America who didn’t benefit.”
We have a lot of FR trolls, who will gladly and shortly tell us how President has been destroying America and has failed as our president.

unexpectedly
The favorite adverb of major news organizations when describing dreary economic news since 2009. It is believed to have originated around May 19, 2009, when Reuters reported “new U.S. housing starts and permits unexpectedly fell to record lows in April . . . denting hopes that stability in the housing market was imminent.” Has since been incorporated into the style book of the Associated Press, as well as other journalistic entities.
Anticipated to remain in the forefront of economic reporting until the end of 2016, when it will “unexpectedly” disappear from the landscape.
“The pace of expansion in the U.S. manufacturing sector unexpectedly slowed in March, according to an industry report released on Monday.”—Reuters, 4/1/13

My wife keeps being amazed about this time every month when we get our Fidelity monthly printout re how our IRAs are doing in spite of rather high mandatory withdrawals.
I keep telling her that is due to my financial ability.
She smiles and says, “You mean Trump’s promise to America!”
In the summer of 2000, I looked out the window at the Edward Jones office and said to myself, “I never thought I would see the DJIA go over 10,000.
Next week, I will change that to 27,000.

Totally unexpected according to the msm. President Trump, you magnificent bastard.
Amen.
Your financial prescience enabled the Trump effect to perform portfolio magnification of tremendous effect.
I guess that’s why they closed the market early....to stop anymore Trump win....me I’m not yet tired of winning.
I predicted on this forum last week that the Dow would hit record high Monday. Off by two days...
The Dow did hit an intraday high Monday, but retreated into the close.
I’ve only had my S&P 500 index fund for a month, and it’s up three percent. IRA has kept the same balance for years now despite withdrawals exceeding the minimum. And this market still has a full head of steam.
Hah. thanks for that!
Women and children hurt the most.
This is VERY unexpected, since it’s only lunchtime!
The Dems make great stock market advisers.
Just listen carefully to everything they say, then do the exact opposite!..................
