I wonder why they only included the first 2 years of Obama's presidency and not 8 years. Oh...so they could illustrate how 401k's "went to hell".
Okay....immediately after the near collapse of the economy, 401k's "went to hell". The trouble was - Obama was president and had the stock market under him for another 6 years. IT would be great to pick and choose what we want to compare, but the fact is that Obama took office and the stock market was at 7,949. And by gosh...between 2009 and 2011, it went down. But when he turned over the reins to the best president in this nations history, the stock market was at 19,827. Now...from 7949 to 19727...is that "going to hell"? Only in Trumps mind.
