You hit the nail on the head with your response. This idiot piece focused on percentage, which is not the correct way to analyze the productivity or health of the stock market. But it sure makes it look like his argument is correct, to those who do not know better.
The fact that you went to the effort of listing his stupid graphs is what made me wonder if you were buying into this nonsense.
Now, even those who may not question your stance, know exactly where you stand with regards to this article. 8>)
I keep saying this to people who keep accusing me of being against Trump (i.e., a NeverTrumper, the standard accusations of FReepers who insist that these forums should only have articles that support Trump), when I post unflattering articles ...
1. I voted for Trump over Hillary, but supported Ted Cruz in the primaries
2. I post articles like these to elicit COMMENTS and REFUTATIONS if such are forthcoming. That I do not post my own comments should not be taken as an endorsement of the article’s content.
3. Before accusing me of always posting articles that are unflattering of Trump, READ MY OTHER POSTS that DO support him.
The problem with many FReepers is they jump into conclusions without seeing the whole picture.
Just read one poster in this thread who actually heaped expletives on me prompting me to have to inform the moderator about violations of FR civility rules.
Focus on the article’s content please.
