The US economy continued to roar to life under President Trump and the Republican-controlled Senate in 2020; with the Dow Jones jumping 150 points and reaching an all-time high during morning trading.

“Stocks rose on Thursday to hit fresh record highs after Morgan Stanley reported quarterly figures that easily topped analyst expectations while investors solid data on the U.S. economy,” reports CNBC. “The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 150 points, or 0.5%. The S&P 500 climbed 0.5% and broke above 3,300 for the first time. The Nasdaq Composite advanced 0.6%.”

Are they correct? This week, and in early 2020, those bulls are correct.”
