David - the Trump stock market increase began as soon as he was elected. Compare the last 2 or 3 years of the Obama Administration agasinst the first 2 or 3 years of Trump's. (Sorry for the long URL. It does work.)

Looks like Trump's run began in Feb of 2016

OK, comparing starting from Obama's election to his second term to his last day in office, and
Trump's election to his first term to today, I get, for the Wilshire 5000

Obama2: change: +$8.8 T -> average 11.6% per year
Trump: change: +$11.6 T -> average 11.4% per year

Correction: Trump's numbers are actually a little closer than above:

Obama2: change: +$8.8 T -> average 11.64 % per year
Trump: change: +$11.7 T -> average 11.54 % per year
