The update on America's stock markets and stock market indices appear through the link posted directly below. The update report is clear and to-the-point, covering April 8th to May 19th, as well as April 21st to May 19th, 2025.
From April 8th to May 19th ... a period of 41 days ... the Dow-Jones Industrial Average rose 5,146.15 points. The DJIA's highest mark ever was 45,073.63. This occurred on Nov 29, 2024. Thus, as of Monday, May 19, the Dow stood at 94.9% of its highest mark, ever.

You can now proceed to the May 2nd Forbes Magazine news report linked below. It mentions that the S&P 500 recently had its longest win streak since 2004. It had 9 consecutive net gain days. Add this to the 3,816 point gain of the DJIA, for the past month, along with the 16.67% gain of the NASDAQ Composite, for the same time span.
Additionally add the fact that the Dow-Jones is now over 42,000. This resulted in the thesis statement of the recent Forbes Magazine report being, "Stocks Climb All The Way Back From 'Liberation Day' Crash." In the middle of April the DOW was down to the 37,000 range. That was short-lived.
Rachel Maddow & Kamala were wrong yet again; this time in the Employment Dept
The anti-Trumpers stated that Donald's tariff schedule will cause a severe reduction in imports. This would then translate into layoffs in the transportation & warehousing industry. Newsflash: In April 2025, there was an employment increase of 29,000 JOBS in Transportation & Warehousing.
This statistic furthermore shows that Rachel Maddow and Kamala Harris are absolutely worthless when it comes to economic insight. They were wrong yet again. See for yourself, while keeping the following in mind: To listen to either one of those two Trump Haters speak is a waste of your time. To give Kamala donation dollars is a waste of your money:
The Price of Oil since Trump became president for a 2nd term, starting with January 2025
The futures price of West Texas Intermediate crude stood at $57.23 per barrel, on May 5th, 2025. This is after having opened at $78.19 per barrel, on Biden's last day at the White House, in mid-January of 2025. Thus, in 106 days, the price of a barrel of West Texas Intermediate decreased by $20.96.
Oil futures per barrel dropped $20.96 since Trump became a second-term president, on January 20, 2025 unto May 5th, 2025. Thus, WTI Crude decreased almost $21 in 105 days. Now, when oil prices go downward, all other prices drop afterward. So, where is the cause for mockery toward Trump?
Back to April 2025
April 30, 2025: In April of 2025, the United States had its highest monthly TARIFF REVENUE, to the tune of $17.4 BILLION. In March of 2025, the US only brought-in $9.6 billion. Kamala apparently didn't get the news ... or she was going to make sure that her April 30th audience wouldn't get to hear the news.
This also happened 14 days after the thoroughly obsessed, yet ever so snide & unnaturally inclined, Rachel Maddow of MSNBC stated "goodbye to the American economy" ... because of Trump. However, it was Biden and Harris who threw the US economy into its death-roes as far back as 2022. All of the high prices came during the tenure of Biden & Harris.

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 modest 108.91 pts. So, where is this "tanking of the stock market(s)" 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 net gain. The Nasdaq had a 407 point net gain, and the S&P 500 had a humble net 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%. As of May 2025, the DJIA rose above 41,000 points.
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
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 points.
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, 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%

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. Now, the communists won in Vietnam. So, Vietnam should be the exemplary model of what communism has to give. So, what has been Vietnam's great accomplishment? ANS: Sweatshop Slave Labor.
In the end, since the transpirations of the Clinton administration, 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, Jr 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 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.
Due 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, 2025, 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 a Willie Brown who ended up giving her two highly paid no-show-jobs. Willie then got Dianne Feinstein to endorse Kamala in Kamala's run for San Fran DA. On election night of the San Fran DA election, 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, to pay-off the 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 a District Attorney that approximately 600 to 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. Directly below is the link to a 2010 article, when Kamala was not yet a nationally known figure:
https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Judge-rips-Harris-office-for-hiding-problems-3263797.php
BTW, Kamala was so vexatious with individuals smoking marijuana that she became coined, "the Queen of Incarceration." She did not achieve many convictions. She simply filed and filed charges, putting person after person in the court system. Such a thing is a burden on taxpayer dollars. This, alone, shows that she is terrible at economic & fiscal responsibility. She was a money-waster in 2024. She was a money waster while San Fran DA.
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 John's time limit. In as much, it was wondered if whether or not John sold his soul while on the Rose Lane Bridge, on Mossley Hill, in Liverpool England. He was once asked how he got so big. His answer was that he sold his soul. But of course, Lennon was the satirical comic.
Well, Kamala was literally a government office holder for 20 years, as San Fran DA, as Calif AG, as US senator, and as US vice president. Then came the 2024 election. Kamala caused the high priced campaign 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.
In fact, familiarize yourself with the great economic Panic of 1893 which did involve failed investments in Argentina. During that general time span, there was a saying which stated, "As goes Argentina, so goes the world." 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 Tiananmen Tim Walz, the Pillsbury Doughboy Look-alike.
Ladies & Gentlemen, start the engines in your minds ... and then expand your minds
The Dependable Economic Marker
A more dependable market analysis statistic than is found in stock market stats is the Futures Market. It would be a good idea for 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 trait. 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.
Bully of Low Intelligence
Concerning Kamala, she was alleged to have bullied & belittled her Calif AG staff members and her VP staff members (91% of whom resigned). After all, Kamala was agreeable with having approximately 280 DNC employees get instantly fired with ZERO severance pay, in November 2024.
In addition, it was alleged that Kamala demanded her California AG staff members to stand and say, "Good morning general" as she entered the room.
Now, here is another instance of Kamala's low DEI IQ. An attorney general is NOT a general. An attorney general is an attorney. Likewise, a general manager is NOT a general. A general manager is a manager. In both instances, "general" is an adjective and NOT a noun. So, not only is Kamala alleged to be a bully, she is equally allegedly to be low in intelligence.
This nation also belongs to the 77.3 million who voted for Trump
Moreover, Kamala said that this nation belongs to her audience of April 30, 2025, and not to the man in the White House. Newsflash folks. This country belongs just as much to the 77.3 MILLION registered American voters who voted Donald Trump into the White House. His presence in that White House is the result of the Will of the People.
When Kamala grits her teeth and acts angry, she is trying to get you to submit to her, in fear. She said that Trump is trying to get everyone to fear him. That is a super big lie, evidenced by the many times he spoke in front of cameras and other people. He is personable. It's aggressors who seek to instill fear. Kamala is trying to make fear her violent weapon.
She even had the audacity to say that there is another motivating factor other than fear, and that is factor "courage." She spoke as if the Donald Trump who was nearly assassinated has no courage. She spoke as if the Elon Musk who endured arson and death threats has no courage. She acts as if Tom Homan were not motivated by the many dead illegal aliens he found in a tractor trailer truck, years ago.
The truth is that Kamala Harris was the gutless coward who needed Tiananmen Tim Walz to proverbially hold her hand and help her through her first TV interview for the 2024 campaign.
It's the Trump People who proved bravery
These Trump employees are the people under attack, and they are not giving-in. They have the courage. Kamala Harris, on the other hand, was such a gutless coward that, while wearing a formal pants suit during a television interview, she was wearing converse tennis/basketball shoes. This is because she couldn't take the inconvenience to her aging & wrinkling & and very non-athletic feet. Kamala was not even courageous enough to wear regular shoes, while she was already sitting down, extending no physical exertion.
Kamala simply wants the deadly illegal aliens to stay in this nation, because she wants to turn them into registered Democrat Party voters who will vote for her. This is because she will not win any nationwide election without them. She never won a single delegate in any primary election. She had to drop out of the 2020 presidential race while it was still 2019. She's a narcissistic egomaniac who obsessively has to become president, simply for the sake of her insatiable ego.
Proof that this egotism is her motivation is in her California attorney general staffers/promoters. They stated that the Calif AG post was only Kamala's stepping stone to the White House. Then came her US senate staffers stating that Kamala's senate post was merely a stepping stone to the United States presidency. She was Calif AG as far back as January of 2011. Thus, Kamala's strive for political superiority is thus far thirteen to fourteen years old.
It's Donald Trump who has the history of extraordinary charity works, such as lending his jet to a family whose young member was seriously ill and in need of specialized medical treatment. Have any of the Democrat Party condemners of Donald Trump ever extend such personalized and expensive charity, out of their own pockets?
