Short term, it bounces up and down unpredictably.  Long term it goes up. 
 

Oh, you're referring to the Obama Era

Actually, it finished slightly higher than that today.  It was basically "flat".  However the S&P 500 and the NASDAQ finished slightly higher.

 

If you simply use the DOW as your indicator, you're not looking at the overall market.

Quote:The stock market did very well today despite the announced rate hike.  That shows a lot of confidence in the economy and where it's going.  Hiking interest rates will be better for savers and a bit more difficult for spenders.

The upward bump from the month's downturn was expected.

Not really.  The upward bump is more because of the latest news regarding the economy.  The first quarter earnings reports should be interesting.
