Since the Dow hit another record high this week, I figured I’d see how the markets fared under Trump and Biden. More records under Trump. More +1% or more days under Biden. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

OK, the rate has been cut. Today is another stock market record! Surely, we will get positive images and glowing headlines, perhaps even indicating that this is happening under a Dem administration...(oh, FFS)
