Stock Market reflects public faith in Stimulus Package

Tweet

The stock market and the Board of Trade have no faith in the President or the Stimulus Package. Historically the markets do better with a Democrat in office because that signals more spending and the chance to make money. What we see is that with his election the marked rallied and early in his transition it continued to rally. With his taking office the marked has fallen and continues to fall because investors, who only make money when the country does well, have no faith in the President or his Policies. The demonstration at the Chicago Board of Trade on Thursday should be a wake up call to the President. Unless his intentions are to ruin this country and the philosophy that made it a major economic force in the world. He cited Japan as an example of what could happen to us and failed to point out that Japan tries massive spending 4 different times and each time it failed. He forgot to mention Ireland which cut business taxes and cut personal taxes and enjoyed a 25% growth over the last few years at the same time the rest of Europe was showing no growth or decline in growth.
