I never tied the stock market to presidential popularity. There are other forces at work besides who sits in the White House!

I happen to be very bullish on the stock market because we are in a time of great innovation.

We are in a time of great innovation. Even with technical analysis, you don't see a lot of stocks with abnormally unrealistic P/E ratios and the like.

I'm into a lot of equities myself and I'm 66. The book says I should be about 70% bonds and annuities and 30% equities. The reality is near the reverse of that.

However, I also understand that inflation and lack of decent returns elsewhere is also a big factor in why the Dow keeps setting new records.
