Tunica,

That's a rather feeble attempt to simplistically place blame. If you want to play games, remember that on election day, the naz stood at 3400. In the turbulent aftermath of the next couple of weeks, it dropped to 2500 and recovered to 3000 before the supreme court made their selection. It then fell off the cliff. Throw into the mix the belief that the market anticipates by 6-12 months and you can blame the entire drop on Bush.

Neither Clinton nor Bush trades stocks. Buyers and sellers move the market. Perceptions, fears, greed, guesses, all move the market. But then, you know that.

It's amusing that while Bill Clinton supposedly had nothing to do with the market's amazing rise, he allegedly had everything to do with its fall!

The markets had a hiccup but recovered substantially by August 2000. When it became known that Duh Bush might actually win the election, there was no logical way to go but down!
