Excluding the time Clinton was in office and only count the 20 years that Reagan,Bush I, and Bush II were in office the DJIA LOST a combined 15%. That is some of the most misleading math ever LOL! DJIA was basically a triple during the Clinton years, but was about an 8 timer from the beginning of Reagan to the end of BushII. So you are trying to tell me that if i was fully invested tracking the DJIA since 1981 except during the Clinton years I would have lost money?!? LOL not even close. 20-Jan-81 950.68 close 20-Jan-93 3,241.95 close $100 invested turns into $341 19-Jan-01 10,587.59 close 21-Jan-09 7,949.09 close $341 invested turns into $256 net result is your so called 15% loss would have turned my $100 into $256! hmmmmm
