This morning the market went down when Obama’s poll numbers went up. It did the same thing a couple of weeks ago. When McCain’s numbers are up, so is the stock market.
as to timing someone brought up…
The market reacts after a decision. Obama numbers up yesterday, stocks down today.

It wasn’t vice versa.

J.C. asked:


Have you heard that if Obama wins, the stock goes up in value and if Mccain, the stock goes down in value? I am holding my money until Midnight of 11/4/2008. If Obama wins, then I am putting all in the market for a big net gain. If Mccain, I will keep under my mattress until he gets out. Do research and tell me what you have heard in the stock market world.

See links below for evidence demonstrating that the stock market performs better during Democratic administrations than Republican administrations.

dpj5: Let’s see if what you’re saying is true:

As I look over the data, I see that the two of the three periods with the biggest gains (33-36, 97-01, and 49-52) involved Democratic Congressional majorities as well.

The data do not support your claim. Please try again.
John–Excellent points, but they also illustrate that the stereotype that Democrats favor regulation is not always true.

Todays stock market plunge almost guarantees that McCain can’t get off-topic and go on a character attack. If he decides to ignore the economy and go after Obama, I think he is done.

Thoughts?
