Weird how so many people are oblivious to the fact that most hiring is done by corporations, and that the more stocks corps sell the more people they hire. Sure, ideology may make it hard to accept, but sometimes things simply are what they are:

Good chart. Most people don’t want to see the positives because it’s Obama in the chair. I get that and have huge issues with his policies and the fact that they are stifling growth. The economy is growing, albeit slightly 1-2% GDP, in spite of his growth crushing policies.
You do realize that a company does not share in the increase of its stock price, unless it owns its own stock or it issues new stock. Neither of which is common.
Companies sell stock to raise money. Its a one time event. You cannot sell stock and own it at the same time. Nor can you issue new stock without depressing the price of current stocks.
If I sell $10 million in stock to build a factory, I no longer own that stock, nor do I really own the factory. I sold a future factory for current stocks. If those stocks go to $100 million in value, I haven’t made any profit from the stock increase, the stock holders have.
