But I thought Trump was going to make the economy great again /s 🤣
He'll issue an executive order establishing that the market can only go up
He disbanded the US government agency that develops the annual GDP numbers. Guess how they'll figure those out next year?
If you guessed "we'll make some up that are higher than last year" then you're spot on.
The numbers will go up. Nobody knew they could go up. It's unheard of.
Remember, immigration is down by over 100%!
Making up figures/numbers … smh. Nineteen eighty-four gets more relevant by the day.
Signing those with his big-boy Sharpie is about al he knows about actually governing lol
I mean for the longest time it only has gone up... And that's not sustainable

Perfect time to buy
If it's representing value produced by a population, and that population is both growing in numbers and finding ways for each person to be more productive, it makes sense for the index to go up. The current drop in stock markets is not related to either population decline nor to some widespread productivity hit, meaning sustainability isn't the problem at hand.
Ultimately, it's a numerical abstraction. A number can always go up. It does not mean it's materially better than the number from last year, just that the number is bigger. When inflation goes high but people's investments do not, that indicates bad stuff.
If inflation and wages and investments and savings all go up consistently, it's not necessarily unsustainable, it's just quirky math.
Change to down color to green.
That's how it works in China
Edit: Japan and Korea as well
He will. But not for us.
iT BiDeN'S EcoNMY! /j
He didn't tell us how bad it was, so we added tariffs on everything.
