    1. In Real life when someone cheats you Automatically lose. Stop the charade Joe Trump won. I Can’t wait to Watch the election results come in over the next couple weeks and watch Mr Biden officially lose 🤣TRUMP 2020

    2. @The Tweatles I’m Canadian and support them too; who are you, to declare you are better because of your skin tone? Arrogant and absurd, grow up.

    3. @Harris Biden 2020 WON !!! Actually, Trump has never much participated in stocks. It’s over his head and “rigged.”

    1. @SGT Gardner He didn’t develop the vaccine so no, the people that actually worked hard get to take credit for that not the bafoon that DENIED the virus and completely ignored it for MONTHS while people died. All he did was deflect and play golf. He gets to go down as the worst president ever elected in American history. He’s a one term IMPEACHED failure!

    2. @Stephanie S thank you for straightening STG Gardner out
      Because 45 done absolutely nothing but hail super spreaders every chance he got
      But I’m listening to Biden team and I’m beginning to have hope again that America we be great once again

    3. @SGT Gardner Guess what, any other president (and I mean ANY) in these past four years would have seen equal market highs and would’ve overseen an equally fast (if not faster) roll out of a vaccine. What NONE of them would’ve done is overseen more than a quarter of a million American deaths in 2020. Your boy is an absolute disgrace. Comparing that number to the ‘2 million people that would’ve died if it wasn’t for ME’ Puhlease. That’s if he had done absolutely NOTHING! Who in their right mind would (a) make that comparison in the first place and (b) think it was a good thing? Pathetic

    4. And the fact is, he DID pretty much do nothing – the governors and the 60% of people with a shred of decency and a sense of personal responsibility reduced the death toll – NOT tRUMP THE SUPER-SPREADER IN CHIEF.

  1. The stock market is up because the transition has begun. If the market crashes before Trump leaves office you won’t see him taking credit…….

    1. Smart pple in this comment section there worried about taking credit for the next career politician who’ll just pocket it

    2. Exactly. Takes credit where not earned, and denies responsibility when his. The perfect antithesis of a leader.

  2. Reminder:
    food banks are begging for donations because their demand is 6-8x normal due to people not having money for food.

    1. @The Calendar Trump got less than 74 million as to where Biden got 80 million just like the 80 million soldiers who stormed Normandy Beach 80 million people storm the election booth and voted for Biden so Biden one you lost along with Trump goodbye

    2. @Leo Nabinger Sorry weirdo, but antifa and leftists ARE NOT in WW2 or more importantly, would ever be able to pass a simple Physical test to be in an Army. So stop larping, and enjoy your transitions, crack and your socialism and we’re headed to the SUPREME COURT 🙂

    1. @Tron just like ALL U WERE WHEN TRUMP WON.. Russian collusion, impeachments every other bogus thing thrown at him..

    2. I don’t recall the number “30,000” being referred to as “sacred“ by Donald when that many Americans had died from Covid. For some reason, even 230,000 is not even sacred.

    1. @edward cunha Turn off the fake news and get the facts. Then get your history book out and educate yourself before you comment on something you know nothing about. BYE BYE stupid.

    2. @edward cunha LOL.. the market went up when tRump got in, because he promised huge tax cuts for the top 1% and corporations. Yes, tRump gets credit for that!!.. he ran up the National debt during a GOOD economy handed to him by Obama/Biden… to pump up the stock market.. which then collapsed and moved sideways for 2 years. The market reacts to future anticipated events… this being Biden in office.

  3. Trump, the Stand-by and Let ‘Em Die president, forgot to mention that the NEW s-market high came after he was resoundingly defeated in his bid for yet another reign.

    1. The Truth is Out Now While my brain might be slowed slightly due to advancing age, it’s still functioning to the extent that 1.) I think if you believe Trump gets any credit for the putative vaccine it will take more than an injection to cure what you’ve got, and 2.) As less than, or right around 50% of people in this country possess stocks (remember that owning just a single stock makes one a “stock holder”), the little guys are not making the big investments, driving the market upward — big investments drive the market up, and that’s ostensibly the domain of the wealthy not the common man. Vaccine and stock market increase may be correlated, maybe not, and if so to whose benefit? Qui bono?
      Confidence in a fresh regime with an honest, just leader emboldens every investor from the common fellow to the rich.

    2. @The Truth is Out Now We don’t even know the side effects yet or how well it will work, so no brain dead Trump supporter it’s not the vaccine. We are all different, only time will tell how well the vaccine that was rushed through will work. You won’t see me lining up for it until it’s been around and proven itself.

    3. His speeches, (rants), are getting shorter and his appearances fewer. Soon, he’ll be relegated to Twitter posts, flagged as disinformation.

    4. @The Truth is Out Now Hahaha!! 😂 since when is it a “trump vaccine”? hahaha!! Is he claiming all of the vaccines now too? 🤣😂

  4. The stock market is responding to future speculation that we are leaving crazy behind and heading towards normalcy.

    1. @Preston Ramseyer
      Because Trump is the most recent President. The stock market always goes up over the long term, so most presidents see record highs. That doesn’t mean they had anything to do with it.

    2. @Jock Young presidents do have influence in GDP .. the funny thing there is the GDP was higher under the last 3 years of Obama than the first 3 years of trump. Of course must trump supporters don’t know how to research facts and just take trump lies as gospel. Sad really.. too bad they don’t watch these videos to learn anything, they just leave baseless rant comments.

    3. Let me take a stab at this. The stock market had historic lows under Trump his supporters never talked about. These all correlate with predicting normalcy. Biden is normal so its starting to peak. 🤣

  5. stock market is on a huge rally once it figured out Trump was going to be a one term president. He just congratulated himself on losing.

    1. He does seem exhausted and depressed at least in this video. Not that he doesn’t deserve it, though.

    1. It also went up quite a bit post election day, when Biden showed as being ahead. Very much had nothing to do with Trump, yes!

    2. Funny not true look it up November 24th 2012 Obama elect lowest numbers of the year so tell me did the market like Joe Biden better then Obama

    1. Of course he goes golfing so he can milk taxpayers for money! You don’t see trump or republican pass a relief bill, they’re toooo busy stacking courts with idiots!!!

    1. You’re the fool and you haven’t done your homework look up the history the market didn’t like Obama and they don’t like his little sister Joe Biden

    2. @john causey market actually did quite well during Obama’s term. % wise it did better than the Donald’s. And that’s a fact

  6. Of course he’s taking credit for things he had nothing to do with. The stock market’s going up because BIDEN WON!

    1. @D LOV the market is up because of a biden win , ru kidding me ? Day after elections we had one of the biggest days in the stock market because he was winning.

    2. @antonio camargo the year chart doesn’t confirm what you are saying at all. The market has been going up since August. I am a steady investor and you are completely wrong. Not even a little bit right. The market has been bullish since August.

    3. @D LOV lol no it wasn’t every time during elections the markrt has been red when they announced biden was the leading winner markets rallied . I’m not saying during August it didn’t im just speaking facts because tech and stocks that biden would benefit rallied

    4. @antonio camargo I see what’s going on here. You do know that the market always has corrections and pull backs right? That doesn’t mean the market is in decline. The primary trend, which started March 20th, has been in bullish direction. The market has been breaking records multiple times this years. Especially since the market has been trading above pre-covid numbers for months now. If you can’t see that, then I don’t know what to tell you. It’s like liberals say all the time. You can’t have an argument with someone with a different set of facts. Take care man

    1. Exactly correct. What the market values is STABILITY… and Trump has been the most unstable president in history.
