A comparison of US Economy under Trump Vs Joe Biden PresidencyIt is debatable whether any sitting US President can exert much control over an economy that is as large and as complex as that of the U.S. But Stock Markets are a fair indicator of the overall state of the US economy based on investor sentiment in the markets.
So let's have a look at the various factors that affected how the Dow Jones (as an illustrative example) and the US economy in general fared under Trump Vs Biden-Harris.
1. The DJI gained an impressive approx +12337 points (+67.22%) during the Presidency of Donald Trump, whereas it gained an equally impressive +11,868 points (+38.70%) under Biden-Harris.
2. Yet, the markets stumbled in the Second year of each Presidency - due to COVID lock downs, rising interest rates, Government shutdowns, Trade friction with China (under Trump), and rise in Inflation and interest rates (under Biden).
3. Year-3 was best under each Presidency, with impressive returns and dividends partly driven by reduction in interest rates (under Trump), Billions of Dollars in Stimulus packages, and reopening of economy post COVID and burgeoning AI driven boom (under Biden) and also lowering of interest rates (late into Biden Presidency).
4. Americans enjoyed relatively low Inflation under Trump, whereas resurgence of Inflation has been the biggest problem of Biden-Harris administration. The COVID induced supply chain snarls, geopolitical pressures, unleashing of pent-up demand, all pushed prices sharply higher under Biden-Harris.
5. Inflation has since cooled, most supply chains have normalised, Aggressive Fed rates have helped bring down price growth, still Inflation has increased by +20% during Biden-Harris Presidency and Americans are grappling under it's debilitating effects.
6. The US economy added 6.8 million jobs in the first three years under Trump, it then lost 9.8 million jobs in 2020 producing a Net Loss in employment under Trump. The US added 16.4 million jobs under Biden-Harris.
7. Americans ability to spend is usually their view of the economy. It is no surprise that most Americans feel they did better under Trump, when although wages were lower, but so was Inflation, with average hourly earnings rising +6.4% under Trump. While a tight labour market brought significant wage growth for most Americans under Biden-Harris, high Inflation has restricted purchasing power. The REAL Inflation adjusted wage growth under Biden-Harris is only +1.4%.
8. Notwithstanding a strong job market and economy under Biden-Harris, consumers aren't pleased with economic the conditions. But the Biden-Harris administration inherited a country suffering from the COVID pandemic fallout and soon Inflation added to the woes. Considering these factors Biden-Harris has done a fair job of keeping it together despite the added presuure of global geopolitical challenges.
Even as the US markets are at All Time High levels, confidence in the trajectory of the economy is very low. The Gallup's Global Life Evaluation Index for US is registering low levels of confidence typically seen during recession.
So, which Presidential candidate Trump or Harris, do you think will be better for the US economy in General and US and global markets in particular?

Gold flirts with sellers in a bullish channel ahead of US NFPGold is stabilizing after its largest daily decline in 15 weeks, as traders await Friday's US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) report. In doing so, the precious metal bounces back above the 50-SMA but struggles to reclaim its previous upward trend, signaled by a three-week-old rising wedge. Still, it remains within a bullish channel established since early August.
Bulls need conviction to retake control
Even with gold's recent bounce and its position within a multi-day bullish channel, Thursday’s confirmation of a rising wedge bearish chart formation, combined with bearish MACD signals and a lack of oversold RSI, raises concerns for buyers.
Key technical levels to watch
Gold buyers focus on the rising wedge's bottom near $2,762 to regain control. If they succeed, the next targets will be the wedge's top at around $2,796 and the bullish channel’s upper line at about $2,810. A firm move above $2,810 could lead to the bullion’s gradual rise toward $2,900 and potentially $3,000.
On the other hand, Gold sellers are looking at Thursday’s low of $2,731, with the previous weekly low of around $2,708 in their sights. Key levels for bears include the bullish channel bottom and the 200-SMA near $2,687 and $2,670, respectively. If gold drops below $2,670, it may be set for a decline toward the rising wedge target of $2,570.
Bulls in control, but sellers seek opportunities
The recent bearish chart pattern offers sellers a chance for short-term gains, especially if the US employment report impacts gold prices. However, buyers are expected to maintain their hold on the market.

IRCTC - BULLISH & BEARISH BIASSymbol - IRCTC
CMP - 900
IRCTC is currently trading at an interesting zone. After a good rally in the last year, This stock is following a trendline resistance making lower - lows price action & showing no strength of price growth.
I am tracking this stock from quite some time. I will be interested in long positions on breakout of 940-950 resistance zone. I will be even more interested in shorting this stock if this stock breaks 850 on downside & sustain below it as it stock is making a Head & shoulders pattern in larger time frame.
Such patterns tends be more accurate on larger time frame & don't fail if gets activated. This pattern will get activated if price break neckline on the downside then I will be shorting futures for more downside targets.
What will happen? Only the time will tell. My job is to keep it on radar & enter in longs above 950 & enter in short below 850.
