The day was  January 20, 2009 and Omama became President. The DJIA was 7550. On December 25th 2010, 2 years later, the DJIA was 11,573...an increase of 53%.

On January 20, 2017 when the crowds set new records, Trump became President. and the DJIA was 19,827. On December 25th 2018 the DJIA is 21,792...an increase of 10%.

""President Barack Obama stepped into office in 2009 — the year after stocks lost nearly 40% amid the financial crisis of 2007-2008. 

And a few months into his presidency, he ended up making one of the most perfectly timed market calls ever. 

On March 3, 2009, just three days before stocks on the S&P 500 touched an intraday low of 666, and six days before the closing low of 676.53, the president said: "What you're now seeing is profit-and-earnings ratios are starting to get to the point where buying stocks is a potentially good deal if you've got a long-term perspective on it." 

Fast-forward to  Obama's last full day in office — when the S&P 500 closed at 2,263.69, up by about 225% since he made the call. ""

Let's hope Trump can come close the next 2 years.
