The Only Zero Opinion Site For Presidential Performance
We don’t do editorial.
We don’t opine. And we don’t care what anyone’s “take on it” is. We simply present unadulterated metrics and facts on stock market performance, GDP, and job creation.
Why? Because while we respect everyone’s right to their own opinion, we also think every opinion is stronger when it puts the facts first.
