The Presidential Cycle

I just checked the stock market action in all presidential periods since the 1940s:

It appears that in recent history, the stock market has NEVER gone down in year 4 of a presidential cycle. Why? I would guess that if the incumbent party wants to win the next election, they need to keep the market up.

What does this mean? Is it possible they will gun the market up EVEN HIGHER as we move towards the election? This is scary!!!!

On the other hand, commodities are too cheap to get the votes of the agricultural communities.....will the democrats also try to get commodity prices back up?

Your thoughts??
