I wish us both luck during the last 3 weeks of the year!  I also have some way-ups but they are not as way-up as they were after the last couple of months!  In the original post I was of course referring to the overall market indicies, not individual stocks. 

If the Dow and S and P on Jan 2 2019 are down from Jan 2, 2018 will you consider Donald Trump and his trade and economic policy bear any of the blame or will you follow MM who, based on past performance, will almost certainly lay all the blame on Barack Obama and the Democrats in contravention of the fact they have been powerless for the last 2 years?
