Thats a "half truth". A true comparison would be by percentages not points Callie1979 Apr 3 #1

The top five by percentage: Ocelot II Apr 3 #2

Thank you! So today wasnt even close to the top. Callie1979 Apr 3 #11

Good. Percents are key. You are halfway there and should look at the S&P 500 (re downthread post of mine). . . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Apr 3 #21

Half truths are just fine. Nobody cares about the minutia. This is a good TP. BannonsLiver Apr 3 #3

No, we should use the WHOLE truth. Stuff like this is disingenuous. Callie1979 Apr 3 #13

When they stop being disengenuous then we should join rpannier Apr 3 #16

Stuff like this is so easily dismissed though Callie1979 Apr 3 #17

Yep. It just invites someone to say that the three largest Dow gains of all time were under Trump onenote Apr 3 #27

Great point. And you can bet they'd do it Callie1979 Apr 4 #36

You need to keep it simple slightlv Apr 3 #20

Oh, our messaging certainly sucks, but forget the MAGAs Callie1979 Apr 4 #37

You're fighting the last war. BannonsLiver Apr 3 #32

We are not talking to maga here. I condemn spreading half-truths among DU members. . . . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Apr 4 #33

Just came here to say that. Ms. Toad Apr 3 #9

This isn't some academic research. It's just posts on social JI7 Apr 3 #12

And simple minded fools won't question that the three greatest Dow gains were under Trump. onenote Apr 3 #29

You are talking to DU here, not maga. Please don't assume most DU members are simple minded fools. . . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Apr 4 #34

I'm not talking about people on here JI7 Apr 4 #35

Yay for percentages. Day losses are dramatic and attention getting, but what really costs are the long declines. . nt Bernardo de La Paz Apr 3 #22

Ok SocialDemocrat61 Apr 3 #4

THE TOP 9! Wiz Imp Apr 3 #23

Good point! SocialDemocrat61 Apr 3 #24

Number 7 is missing? nt Richard D Apr 3 #8

I used to work in Wall Street and this is so disastrous kimbutgar Apr 3 #10

Republicons face at least six debilitating factors: Bernardo de La Paz Apr 3 #19

The Dow is a useless broken price-weighted index easy to calculate with 1900 era adding machines. Bernardo de La Paz Apr 3 #14

Here's the top 10 from the S&P 500 Wiz Imp Apr 3 #25

Thanks. 1987 was dramatic, for sure, but I was not paying attention in 2020 or 2008. Nice to review again. . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Apr 3 #30

You list useless point changes. Another thing: Counting helps. You list six, not seven Bernardo de La Paz Apr 3 #15

If you ever have to have a conversation with a MAGA, it may come in useful. Doodley Apr 3 #28

Your devious psychological approach made me chuckle . . . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Apr 3 #31

And if the MAGA points out that the three greatest gains were under Trump onenote Apr 4 #39

I take this personal, he is gambling with our money! Emile Apr 4 #38
