why 8 years?
Barack Obama, George Bush, and Gerald Ford are far ahead of him, for example, when the day of the imminent launch. According to Macrotrends.net, the S & P 500 has added 19.6 percent in the first six months of its term of office, while Bush sen. 16.3 percent and for Ford 13.1 percent. Trump is in fourth place with 8.4 per cent and is thus still before Bill Clinton.
When Trump moved into the White House, the US stock markets were already looking back on high price gains. After the trumps of Trumps, the upward movement accelerated. The most important reason for the long-term rally on the exchanges is the ultra-loose monetary policy of the central bank. The low interest rates make shares attractive as a yielding investment. In the meantime, the momentum in the US was fueled by trumps, with a "phenomenal" tax reform and massive investment in the infrastructure for economic growth and higher corporate profits. However, investors now doubt that these promises can be implemented.
In case of uncertainty about the future development on the stock exchanges: Should the prices fall again one day in the near future, Trump will probably deny any responsibility
