So, you're saying that Obama's responsible for what happens on the DOW Jones Industrial Average?
Ok.
Quote:
Two months into Barack Obama’s tenure, the index reached its low point, slumping to 6,547 in March 2009.

But then something interesting happened: Just a few weeks after Obama signed his stimulus package, the Dow began to rise. Sure, it was herky-jerky, but under our supposedly socialistic president, we’ve seen the Dow go up around 5,000 points from the beginning of his term.

And another 1,500 points on top of that since the publication of this article.
I got your "Obama effect" hangin' right here, punk.
