| Above: The United States of America's mindset, as of November 5th, 2024. |
The DOW dates back to 1896, and it includes the average of all 30 blue chip stocks combined. The divisor was 0.151 in 2024 until November, when it was changed to 0.16268413125742. In fact, it was 0.147 in 2018. It gets adjusted to account for stock splits and changes in preferred stock "dividends." However, the divisor is different for the Dow-Jones 20 Transport and also for the Dow-Jones Utilities 15.
The Wall Street Scoreboard. We start with updates
Now remember, shortly after the April 2nd Day of Economic Liberation, Donald Trump was mocked by Kamala, mainstream media venues, and other politicians. In fact, the thoroughly obsessed Rachel of MSNBC asserted that Trump was causing the stock markets to "tank." She later claimed that Trump was causing the whole US economy to tank. In as much ... going backward in time, we see that Rachel Maddow literally needs ... in my private-citizen's opinion ... intense psychiatric therapy:
The US Economic Update Roll Call
April 28, 2025: In April of 2025, the United States had its highest monthly TARIFF REVENUE, all done in a 24-day time span. By April 24, 2025, the United States received $15.9 BILLION. In March of 2025, the US only brought-in $9.6 billion.
This happened 21 days after Kamala Harris mocked Trump. This also happened 14 days after the thoroughly obsessed, yet ever so snide, unnaturally inclined & sexually perverted, Rachel Maddow of MSNBC, stated "goodbye to the American economy" ... because of Trump. It was Biden and Harris who threw the US economy into its death-roes as far back as 2022. All of thehigh prices came during the tenure of Biden & Harris.

Meanwhile, the futures price of West Texas Intermediate crude stood at $61.98 per barrel, on Apr 28, 2025, after having opened at $78.19 per barrel, on Biden's last day at the White House, in mid-January of 2025.
Under Biden, the price of West Texas Intermediate went as high as $122.11. This happened on June 6, 2022. Now, when oil prices go downward, then all other prices drop afterward. So, where is the cause for mockery toward & outrage against Trump?
Update as of April 24, 2025: The DJIA shot upward 486.83 pts, rising over the 40,000 mark. The Nasdaq Composite rose 458 pts, and the S&P 500 rose a moderate 108.91 pts. So, where is this "tanking of the stock market(s)" and the American Economy that Rachel Maddow arrogantly said was occurring at the hands of Trump?
Update as of April 23, 2025, @ 10:30 am: Within the first 90 minutes of business operations, the Dow-Jones Industrial Avg gained 1,060 pts. The Nasdaq Composite rose 689 pts during the same 90 minute period, and the S&P 500 increased a humble 169 pts. At the closing bell, the DJIA ended up having a significant 419 point gain. The Nasdaq had a 407 point gain, and the S&P 500 had a humble gain of 88 pts. Where is the cause for mocking Trump, again?
The DJIA, as of closing time, on Wednesday, April 9th, 2025, was ... 40,608.
This resulted in an arithmetic gain ... a Net Gain ... of 2,962. That's the largest single-day net gain in Dow-Jones history. Then, as far as concerns the percentage gain, it was the 19th largest gain in Dow-Jones history, at 7.87%.
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Incidentally, the three largest percentage gains in Dow-Jones history occurred in 1933, 1931, and in 1929. And as far as concerns the second highest single-day Net Gain in Dow-Jones history, it was also under Donald Trump, on the 24th of March, 2020, at a gain of 2,112.
All in all, on April 2nd, when Economic Liberation Day was commenced, the DJIA stood at 41,989. At the closing bell, on Tuesday April 22, the DJIA was 39,186. In the morning of April 23, the DJIA returned to its previous 40,000. The DJIA's highest score in its history was slightly above 45,000.
Below: The DJIA from Apr 3 to Apr 9, 2025. Kamala & Rachel Maddow should have kept their comments to themselves. Then again, both persons, in their Arrogance & Ignorance, proved that they have no idea what they are talking about, when it comes to economics, investing, finance, and the stock markets of the world. When it comes to finance science, those two women are chump change.

Now for the S&P 500
Also on Wednesday, April 9th, 2025, the S&P 500 had its largest Net Gain. It simultaneously had its 8th largest Percentage Gain in its history. It's Net Gain was 474.13 points. The Percentage Gain was 9.52%

| Posted pursuant to 17 USC 107, and yes, it's mildly out of focus. But, it's evidence, none the less. |
Nasdaq stands for National Association of Securities Dealers' Automated Quotations. The Nasdaq Composite covers approximately 3,000 stocks. On Wednesday, April 9th, 2025, the Nasdaq Composite gained 1,857 points. That was a percentage gain of 12.16%, and it was the second largest percentage gain in Nasdaq history. The largest was a 14.17% gain, on the 3rd of January, in 2001.
Now, April 10 stocks underwent the predictable loss-day after a heavy gain-day, to the tune of 1,000 points for the Dow-Jones Avg. Then came April 11, 2025, when the DJIA ... (the DOW) ... gained 619.05 points, sending it back over the 40,000 point mark.

As far as concerns the stock markets, the goal is NOT to send the price of stocks on an endless rise that will result in the common citizen being unable to afford a single share of any blue chip stock. Thus, the goal is NOT to create an oligarchical stock market where the DJIA goes over 45,000. There's a more important economic need for any nation.
Currency Flow is the Number 1 concern
When gauging an economy, the Number 1 concern is the Leakages & Injections of currency into & out of an economy. And of course, the greatest leakage of the past twenty-five years for the United States was the hundreds of billions of dollars per year going into Slave Labor, Sweatshop China.
For example, during Biden's second year of presidency, the US Trade Balance DEFICIT with China was $577 BILLION. In the following year, 2023, the deficit was $386 BILLION. Then, in Biden's final year ... 2024 ... the trade balance deficit with China was $295 billion, for goods alone.
In the same year ... of 2024 ... the US deficit with Mexico was $171 billion. With Vietnam, America's 2024 trade balance deficit was 123 billion dollars. So, the message from Biden and Kamala was that, even though 58,000 Americans died in Vietnam, the same Vietnam gets to drain America of as much of its money supply as is possible.
This means that, as far as Joe Biden & Kamala Harris were concerned, the Vietnamese Communists won the war and 58,000 Americans died in vain. After all, no Vietnamese sweatshop worker gets to enjoy freedom. In the end, America's career politicians made America a massively leaking economy, branded with negative digits throughout its accounting records.
As an example, under the Ronald Reagan who did destroy the American Dream, the US national debt rose 160%, in eight years' time. Under the George Bush who succeeded in having Freedom of Religion graphically attacked in Iraq, the debt rose 72.6% in an eight year period. And under Barack Obama, the US debt rose 64.4% ... in 8 yrs. Even under the Bill Clinton who did succeed having two years of budget surpluses ... due to the residual effect of thr End of the Cold War ... the US debt rose 28.6% ... in 8 yrs.
China used American shopper dollars to pay for a massive military, with missiles and all
The trade balance deficit with China was in the hundreds of billions of dollars each year, year after year. The money that kept being sent to China, in exchange for sweatshop merchandise sold at Walmart, funded the modern Chinese military, where every military man makes an oath of fidelity to the Chinese Communist Party, and not to the Chinese nation.
Thanks to the American shoppers' many purchases of Chinese sweatshop merchandise, China now has the largest military navy in the world. To think, the airheaded American Sunday shopper was aiding & abetting America's most deadly enemy all along. Therefore, airheadedness kills. Speaking of airheads:
Killer Kamala
There is a simple reason as to why a Kamala Harris presidency would have resulted in a pathetic economic collapse. It's because that collapse started under Joe Biden and Kamala was the vice president who did nothing to lessen America's economic demise ... or to stop it. During her tenure, the US national debt rose 8.4 trillion taxpayer dollars.
Plus, there is the matter of Kamala squandering over $1.5 BILLION in campaign donor dollars, during her short campaign. If Kamala's campaign endured any longer than 107 days, all the more people would have seen that she is a vain and empty airhead. So, if Kamala had a longer campaign, there would have been many less votes for her, on November 5th. And if CNN & MSNBC didn't defame Donald Trump 24/7, Kamala would have gotten many many less votes.
Of course, Kamala gave a speech on April 3rd, acting as if she knew all along what was going to happen in America. She ended up saying that she didn't want to say she told us so, etc, etc, etc. Then she broke-out, into another one of her airheaded bimbo giggles. This is a sign of a person who has no discipline of thought and no discipline of emotions. Such a person should never be president, prime minister, senator, or mayor of anywhere.
As far as goes the title, "bimbo," she was well known as the whore of Willie Brown who ended up giving her two highly paid no-show-jobs. Willie then got Dianne Feinstein to endorse Kamala is her San Fran DA campaign. On election night Kamala only got 32% of the vote. But, that was enough for a run-off vote.
Kamala apparently thinks that she has a good chance of winning either the California gubernatorial election in 2026 or the 2028 presidential one. In the alternate, maybe she is only looking to raise the $20 million debt she accrued in 2024, after having squandered the $1.5 billion given to her by donors.
And remember, this is the Kamala Harris who was so incompetent as an Attorney General that approximately 1,000 drug cases had to be dismissed ... due to a crime lab scandal that Kamala should have stopped after the first one or two hundred botched drug cases. Moreover, while she was San Fran DA, she declined to prosecute any Catholic priest molesters of San Francisco. She was looking for political points with influential people.
20 Years in Power ... after she sold her soul via adultery ... she got ousted by a shellacking.
Kamala Harris did give sex to get a substantial launch into politics. She committed the eternally demandable sin of adultery, in order to get launched. This is equivalent to selling your soul to the Devil.
Now, soul-selling contracts ... according to literature of the past ... go for 20 years. For example, John Lennon was in the recording industry for 20 years and two months. Then, after the end of the 20th year, he was mercilessly & pointlessly murdered by someone who simply wanted to become famous. (October 15, 1960 to December 8, 1980 was his time limit. Plus, it was wondered if whether or not John sold his soul while on the Rose Lane Bridge, on Mossley Hill, in Liverpool England.)
Well, Kamala was literally a government office holder for 20 years, as San Fran DA, Calif AG, US senator, and US vice president. Then came the 2024 election. Kamala caused the high priced donors to be aggrieved at her lies & irresponsibility. They concluded that Kamala is too incompetent to run a nation, being that she was too incompetent of a spend-thrift to run a campaign properly.
In conclusion, in a derivative fashion, Kamala sold her soul, and after 20 years, she was finished. This phenomenon gets filed under the Mighty Coincidence Department. In addition, John Lennon's 20 year career and sudden termination thereof gets filed under Conjecture & Maybe. In fact, the concept of selling your soul to the Devil gets filed under the Department of "Does-this-really-exist-in-any-degree-or-variation?
Trump is emulating McKinley
Now, the mainstream media keeps damning the Trump administration with False Light Defamatory reports, from A to Z. And of course, that same collection of news outlets went to town on Trump's use of tariffs. Well, you would do better to learn of Trump's motivation by learning of the McKinley Administrations use of tariffs, starting in 1897. For now, in the midst of all the damning of Donald Trump, know this:
As of the end of March 2025, the European Central Bank reported that Continental Western Europe's inflation rate was very similar to that of the United States, when measured on a "yearly basis." When measured on an "annual basis," the American CPI (Consumer Price Index) rose 2.4% ... compared to Europe's 2.2%, for the same time span. HOWEVER, when measured on a monthly basis, prices in America ... on average ... decreased by 0.1%.
In addition, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that 2025 gasoline prices decreased by 9.8% ... when measured on an annual basis ... compared to 2024. THEREFORE, Donald Trump is NOT unhinged. Kamala was and is the one who was accused of being too lazy to read the briefs that her staffers prepared for her. This would explain why 91% of VP Kamala's staffers resigned before the end of the Biden presidency.
All in all, there are many numerical and/or mathematical statistics involved in recording any nation's economy. There are many numerical facets to any economy. Thus, when a media network concentrates on only one or two of them, blind-spots are created in the perception of the public who watch the mainstream news reports. This results in mass quantities of humanity remaining clueless as to what's proverbially coming around the corner.
And of course, at present the mainstream media wants to cast Donald Trump in the most unfavorable light possible, always & in every way, every minute of the day ... or night. In fact, the one who wants this False Light Defamation to occur every hour of every day is Kamala ... and then Tim Walz, the Pillsbury Doughboy Look-alike.
Ladies & Gentlemen, start the engines in your minds ... and then expand your minds
Rachel Maddow showed that she doesn't know what she's talking about, either
In addition, the thoroughly obsessed Rachel Maddow mentioned that Trump "is tanking the Stock Market." She was arrogantly sure that Trump had America on the road to guaranteed disaster. Rachel should have waited a week or two, before making her confident accusation. Well, it appears once again that the "Public Policy" major from Stanford doesn't know what she's talking about. Perhaps she should have studied Economics & Finance, instead. However, Economics & Finance involve numbers, graphs, equations & true intellectual capacity.
On April 14th, 2025, the DJIA increased by 312.08 points. The S&P 500 gained 42.61 points, and the Nasdaq Composite rose by 107.028 points. Thus, the stock markets aren't tanking, as the hate-filled Rachel Maddow claimed. More instances of the non-factualness of Rachel Maddow can be cited, but she is a grotesque & arrogantly formless waste of our time. We move onward.
A more dependable market analysis statistic than is found in stock market stats is the Futures Market. It would help anyone to familiarize himself/herself with the various futures markets of this world. The futures market analysis is more like a crystal ball than most other economic indicators. There are other indicators to view, for making a better prediction of the economy. But, they are beyond the scope of this discourse, due to (reading ) time and (printing) space.
The Great Economic Trick during the COVID shutdown which prevented runaway inflation
In the near future, expect there to be more of a gravitational pull toward treasury bonds than to the DJIA ... the S&P 500 ... and the Nasdaq Composite. And why is this so?
ANS: It's because Donald Trump performed a good amount of monitoring during the 2020 COVID Pandemic. In having sent out checks to Americans in every State, he risked triggering massive inflation. But, one economic trick occurred in 2020 that prevented even moderate inflation from transpiring. The successful trick was that plentiful amounts of the M1 Currency were transformed into M2 currency. And what is one of the most effective ways of turning M1 into M2? ANS: You buy treasury bonds on a mass scale ... or CDs.
For those unaware, M1 currency is readily liquid money. M2 currency takes time and procedures to turn into a readily liquid asset. M2 is money in reserve. CD's are M2. Even the cash values of life insurance policies are M2. None the less, this converting involves something known as Quantitative Easing & Signaling. Should Wall Street go into a state of monetary demise, there is always Quantitative Easing to pursue.
In addition, during Trump's first term, the DOW increased 56%, from 19,827 to 30,930. As far as went the Nasdaq Composite, on Trump's first day, in 2017, it was 5,156. On December 20, 2020, it had risen to 12,888. That was a gain of 7,732. In addition, the S&P 500 rose 67%, during Trump's first term.
The Other Advantage during this particular time, in 2025:
The price of a barrel of oil in the various oil markets has been on the decline, in the Spring of 2025. This is a relief for the consumer and especially the working poor. This will contribute to the decline in prices, for common goods and services, in the near future. The near future is 90 days. So, if you want to generally know what the prices of common goods will be 90 days into the future, then take a look at the oil futures market today. This includes Brent Crude, WTI (West Texas Intermediate), Bonny Crude, Ural Crude, Murban Crude, etc.
Incidentally, Bonny Crude is from Nigeria. It has the lowest sulfur content of all known crude oils.

Donald Trump is the gauge monitor in a proverbial control room. He's a pilot flying through an electrical storm. He's a driver in the rain looking for an address. He's the third base coach guiding a runner rounding second base. Thus, he made himself flexible to the reactions of economic decision-makers throughout the nations of the world. His job is to adapt, even instantly so. This means that Donald Trump is engaged in ... in ... playing chicken.
There is one more thing that you need to understand about a Donald Trump who actually did perform multiple acts of charity ... such as giving $100,000 for dogs to be treated more humanely ... and as in Donald giving access of his private jet to a family who had a child grievously ill and in need of specialized medical care:
Also remember that the author of this Blue Marble Album has his Italian-American roots in Brooklyn NY, as well as having had cousins raised in Jersey. Okay then, here it goes:
Donald Trump is a New York City Slicker, and that is the essence of his personality traits. Concerning New Yorkers themselves, it has been repeatedly stated, to the effect that, "A New Yorker can confront you with derision and even hurl name-calling at you, all the while complaining about you to your face. And then, when the New Yorker is done doing that, he'll give you the shirt off his back."
