I’m not an expert on this but it seems the stock market crashes every time there is a presidential election as no one knows how the next President will handle the economy.
The market crashed in April of Clinton’s last year, and he did noting to repair it.
Geroge Bush had 9-11 to keep the market low, and it also crashed in his last year.
Obama did nothing., NOTHING. and as the market was still low and trying to recover everyone did not expect anything out of Hillary, who was already deemed the next President. No need to have an election, she was “IN”.
Then a business man, TRUMP got elected and the market started taking off up, and up, and up. So the Dems tried to say it was Obama’s economy. It was not.
The market is now so high, every little drop sends the Dems into “gloom and doom” mode, as they try to make hay off of it.
We will see what it does in Trump’s last year in office, depending on if a strong Democrat is running against the Republicans.
My take on it too, and the Rats will do everything they can to make voters believe it's going to tank to win the election.
They're whistling Dixie.
