    It started in 2007 and we were out of it five months into the Obama administration.

      Ask the average guy on the street...

      “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

        Obviously most of the average guys on the street blamed G. W. Bush; that's a big reason why W. lost the election in 2007.

          I remember commenting in early October 2008 that Fidelity and Vanguard were essentially mailing Obama campaign literature to half the country (3rd quarter statements).

            I think most people acknowledge that the recession was caused by the housing crisis at the end of Bush's term and not by Obama's recent election. Obama got re-elected fairly convincingly, after all.

            I was only joking

                Uh, Bush was term limited in that election. He did not run.

                  Oops, meant to say "... the GOP lost the election in 2007." The WH and control of both chambers of Congress went to the Democrats.

                      It's funny, pretty much the only advice ever given to me by a bank manager was to basically do exactly the opposite of what you feel like you should do when buying stocks. He said so many people buy high and sell low it's ridiculous.

                      I was only joking

                        LOL. That is so true. Best just to minimize looking.
