Dow Outlook Is Bleak As Trump Dreams Of A Big Stock Market Bounce

Published by Cyber Flows on

  • The stock market enjoyed one of the best performances in decades last week.
  • President Donald Trump is looking for a big bounce after the coronavirus pandemic blows over.
  • Unfortunately, the economic fundamentals point to at best moderate returns for the Dow Jones.

Donald Trump is singing the stock market’s praises after one of the best weeks on Wall Street for almost 50 years. Unfortunately, while the President is optimistic about a V-shaped recovery, evidence suggests more pain could be ahead for the Dow Jones.
