The S&P 500 surged 16% throughout Trump's initial year back at the helm. Where does this stack up against historical precedent? It's worth comparing how major indices have performed across different administrations—examining not just headline gains, but also the broader economic context and market cycles that shape these outcomes.

A 16% increase is indeed impressive, but is it really worth bragging about? The story behind this market movement might be much more complicated than the numbers themselves...

16% looks good, but what does this number itself indicate? It depends on the cycle position, where the base left by the previous cycle is, and variables like interest rate hikes and liquidity must all be taken into account. Looking only at headline figures to draw conclusions is gambling rather than analysis.

A 16% increase sounds impressive, but it depends on what bottom it rebounded from... You can't just look at the percentage increase without considering what happened beforehand.

A 16% increase sounds impressive, but it really depends on the cycle... In the face of historical data, what is this? It feels a bit like being harvested as a leek.
