My 401k gained over $8,000 yesterday in one day. I'm not seeing the doom.

Same here. Only time my retirement nest egg faltered was during the eight years of President Stainedbluedress' administration.

How did you manage that? The Dow went from around 3500 to 10600. That's roughly 15% per year for 8 years. If we'd kept growing at that rate the Dow would now be over 20,000. Instead, it's averaged under 3% per year. And the NASDAQ still isn't back even with the 2800 it was in Jan 2001.

Besides, what does the President have to do with the stock market?
