From Reagan to Trump: Here’s how the market performed under each president

[Embedded content]

These charts are deceptive; both Reagan and Obama entered the WH during financial crises when markets were significantly depressed. In these cases, you would expect an upsurge when the economy was being handled competently in response to these crises. Trump’s situation is different; the market was rising over the years prior to his election. The question is can he continue this increase until November 2020; if not, and the market has a significant correction, there may be many who would turn against him.
