Like no president before, investors remember Donald Trump as a great visionary who increased most U.S. major stock benchmarks near all-time highs in just four years.
Seeing as the stock market is an indicator of the economy's well-being and a reflection of the investors' perception of economic conditions, it is evident that those four years were the best for average Americans and their retirement accounts.
Using the stock market as a scorecard, Trump not only surpassed all Republican presidents but trailed behind only Obama and Clinton.
Although, there's a big possibility that he could have surpassed these two if he had gotten a second term or hadn't faced opposition on all fronts from the media.
Under Trump's administration, major indexes like S&P 500 SPX rose 13.7% while the Dow Jones Industrial Average returned 56%.
All these gains raised stock accounts for an annualized yield of 11.8% from January 20, 2017, to January 20, 2021— 0.3% less than the Obama administration.
Despite the raging conspiracies from the media, left-wing politicians, and outcast right-wingers, all these achievements qualify Trump as one of the greatest presidents of the United States.
During Trump's capitalist tenure, several notable events took place.
For example, the implementation of several economic policies, such as tax reform and deregulation, and several oppositions from the liberal-controlled media.
This book addresses the stock market's performance during President Donald Trump's one-term presidency.
It details how Trump stood fiercely against the media to accomplish all he set out to do during his campaign.
