Trump deserves some credit. But It is too early to see how Trump does with jobs or the stock market because Trump is like a relay runner who took the baton from a runner— Obama— who got the baton from a runner— Bush— who ran backwards, forcing Obama to come from way behind on an incredible run to the front before passing the baton to Trump. On jobs, Obama started with a shrinking jobs market, stopped the shrinking in January 2010 and added 22.3 Million jobs from January 2010 through December 2016— a tough record for Trump to beat (job growth is expected to be 1 Million this year but Trump will need to do much, much better than that to match Obama). In the stock market, Obama took over a falling market that bottomed March 6, 2009 at 6,627 Dow, and had seven straight years of growth handing Trump a Dow of 19,820. Trump took this to a Dow of 22,093 points— again a tough record for Trump to beat unless he picks things up. Not saying Trump might not pass Obama, but it will be hard.
