"The Point is you can't be too greedy!" ~Donald Trump, from "The Art of the Deal"

What an inspiration!

Why does the Stock Market and the Economy do so well under Democrats and so poorly under Republicans? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
The S&P 500 has averaged an annual gain of 11.2% under Democratic presidents since 1945, compared to just 6.9% under Republicans.

A $10,000 investment in the S&P 500 in 1948 would have grown to approximately $1.2 million by 2023 if invested only during Democratic presidencies,
compared to around $312,000 if invested only during Republican administrations.

Total job growth has averaged 2.5% annually during Democratic administrations, while it is barely over 1% annually during Republican administrations.
Applied to today’s total workforce, this would imply nearly 2.4 million more jobs created every year under Democratic administrations.

Families in the bottom 20% of the income distribution experience 188% faster income growth during Democratic administrations.

So far Trump has given us:
The most October layoffs since 2003
The most Q4 layoffs since 2008
The most YTD layoffs since 2020
The least YTD hiring since 2011
The least holiday seasonal hiring since 2012
And the National Debt Is Up $1 Trillion in just two months! Prosperity!

Lastly the "Buffett Indicator" (Mr.Buffetts favorite Market valuation tool) is currently at the most overvalued level in history! Looking good!

Why does the Stock Market and the Economy do so well under Democrats and so poorly under Republicans?

Maybe you are looking at the wrong measurement?

From the net sifter:

The Gini coefficient for the U.S. grew by 1.2% between 2020 and 2021, but then decreased by 1.2% between 2021 and 2022. This means the coefficient increased to a peak of 0.494 in 2021 before falling to 0.488 in 2022, representing the first decline since 2007. More recent data shows the decline continued, with the coefficient dropping to 0.485 in 2023.
Here is a breakdown of recent year-over-year changes:

2020 to 2021: Increased by 1.2%, from 0.488 to 0.494, driven by declining real incomes at the bottom of the distribution.

2021 to 2022: Decreased by 1.2%, from 0.494 to 0.488, marking the first decrease since 2007.

2022 to 2023: Continued to decrease, falling from 0.489 in 2022 to 0.485 in 2023, the lowest figure since 2017.

So wealth was increasingly concentrated by the policies of the previous Trump regime. Wealth concentration was reduced during the "Commie" Biden administration.

Graph from Fred

GINI increased during Reagan, increased a lot during Bush 41. GINI growth flattened out during Clinton. GINI again grew during Bush #43, until the RE bubble popped. The plague crimped another uptrend during the first Trump regime.

The premise of "supply side economics" has always been that concentration of wealth in the hands of the few, was the objective.

The premise of "supply side economics" has always been that concentration of wealth in the hands of the few, was the objective.

And occasionally, they even admitted this goal in public:

“Wealth inevitably returns to its rightful, responsible owners”.

And their policies are geared toward helping this eternal truth along

Banksy,

Stop talking out of your south end and put your money where your mouth is.

Short the market at 3x leverage (futures, options, puts, calls, leveraged ETFs) with a significant part of your investment portfolio until Election Day 2028 and let us know how that goes for you.

Track your performance right here.

Otherwise, you're just a ProGlib pretending to be smart and blowing smoke.
