Funny I don't remember the Obama years as being particularly "exuberant."
I remember a lot of MSM cheerleading about a recovery that never arrived.
I do remember quite a lot of exuberance during the last four years of the "decade of exuberance," as this article so misleadingly characterizes it.
No one in the media can hold onto a job unless they push the party line at least once in every story they write.
Or maybe they write them straight, and then some algorithm inserts party line language in a post-processing step.
The Obama years were a dud, as far as the general economy went. Silly Valley did rather well though, if you dont count all the consolidation and the effective death of the VC innovation churn. The big players gained a lot in market value, though “creative destruction” went away.
The recovery was always over there on the horizon with Obama.
Will likely see a repeat of the talking points with Biden the Clown.
