The DJIA did pretty good under Barack but it never had a year like this past year with President Trump in office. One year after after taking office, the Dow had gained 6339.32, reaching an all time high of 26071,72.

Barack’s best year by comparison was in 2014; where the Dow gained 3742.95.
 
The Dow Jones is a basket of 30 stocks which means its more easily influenced by one stock. A better indicator is the S&P 500 which was up more than last year in 2009 and 2013.

Still last year was a very good year. This year is off to a very rocky start.

Apples and Oranges, Obama came in after collapse nowhere to go but up, Trump came in market still up everybody predicting correction

That doesn't paint Trump in a particularly favorable light since he was handed something that was already successful.

Market went up to places it’s never been. The economy is strong all indicators robust its indisputable. The attacks on everything Trump weaken your stances in other areas.

I'm not attacking Trump, just not giving him undo praise for something that was already moving in the direction it was since 2009. Taking a broken economy and tripling its value in 8 years is generally unheard of. Continuing the trend of a successful market isn't that unique.
 
Everyone still making money? No complaints here and no whining about it either CD.
 
On a more positive note the Dow is still above 25,000 with the S & P at 2,779.

You gotta love it!
