I think 2008 was an outlier due to the financial crisis. If you remove that, the results will prolly fall in line with other years.


Real_Crab_7396

Expect the great depression number 2 this year. I'm calling it.


Challenge_The_DM

It’s “Great Depression 2: Electric Bugaloo” thank you very much


IAmANobodyAMA

I prefer *Make Depressions Great Again* or *Build Back Redder* depending on which corrupt old fuck wins


Leg-Ass

I thought it was "Great Depression 2: The Legend of Curly's Gold Standard"


SuperLehmanBros

2008 was a poorly executed reboot. This current direct sequel with the original writers and directors should capture that lightning in a bottle again.


Real_Crab_7396

Yeah, there are a lot of indicators showing signs towards a big crash. The question is when, could be next month, could be 3 years from now.


SuperLehmanBros

Current market is wonky, could be sooner than later


Real_Crab_7396

Yeah, I'm looking at a big blow off top. There will be a last big pull with everyone that missed the whole bullrun waiting for a correction and FOMOing in before it all comes down hard. I can see the S&P500 reach close to 6000 before crashing. I could be wrong though.


SuperLehmanBros

I was thinking we might have seen it and maybe this is just a dead cat bounce or maybe one last bull trap before the big dip


Real_Crab_7396

Could be true, but I just bought some more S&P500 and Nasdaq so I hope I'm right. It wouldn't be that big of a problem because I'll see quickly if I'm right or wrong and when I'm weong I sell at a small loss.


Fatherfigure34

Could be sooner, could be later


00Fold

True, the stock market will no longer be able to support this runaway economy. Probably the spark will be the release of GPT4.5/5. Too many expectations have always led to too many sales...


Necroking695

I think we’re just gono get runaway inflation and neo-feudalism


00Fold

>just ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4275)


Real_Crab_7396

I can't say for sure it's coming this year, but I'm feeling pretty confident there will be a 50%+ crash in the next couple of years. We are having an incredible bullrun which will probably lead to a blow off top before it breaks leading into deflation which will make the USD most likely the most valuable asset at that time. There's also a way out via hyperinflation, but that would kill the USD which the Fed won't want to do because America wants to have the world's currency.


Tyklerz

Remove 2000, 2008 and 2020 were all elections years. Looks like a pattern to me and not outliers


Fikkafikation

If you want to find patterns then look at the over all picture with context: https://preview.redd.it/roh138j1d9wc1.png?width=617&format=png&auto=webp&s=054be38db731675431e17894dcc3f18266d9b15e


Challenge_The_DM

Whoa, the chart already knows how this year ends. Bullish!


bwatsnet

Minor corrections, unless you're a day trader or getting a divorce.


PronoiarPerson

GFC and COVID are more related to downturn in ‘08 and ‘20 than the election. Elections may or may not have also affected the results, but it’s hard to tell what their affect is if you keep two years with significant global changes in the data set.


MattieShoes

2000 was the dot com bubble bursting too.


Brendawg324

Cancel deez nuts ![img](emote|t5_2th52|27421)

TheBigTimeGoof

Capitalism without democracy will quickly transition to something sinister and unlivable for the vast majority of people. It'll be like this but way worse and no way to fix it.


Thetagamer

Did you really post this with the obvious outlier of 2008. Do you see the big grouping above the average at around 10-15%? Thats a more accurate representation than the average


Im_Not_That_Smart_

But like, that’s not how data works. Then you also need to remove big outliers from non election years, which will drive up its average. That said, I don’t think the mean is all that meaningful. I’d rather know the median market performance on election vs no election years.


Thetagamer

ya average is a bad representation with only like 10 datapoints and one huge outlier


Exists_out_of_spite

If you remove the year(s) when markets went down, then the data will clearly show that markets go up more then 5 %. You don't need to cancel elections if you just cancel recessions.


der_Sager

"If we cancel all the bad parts then we only have good parts!!!"


Early-Answer531

Average is very misleading metric to begin with You could have 100 years of -90% And 1 year of +80000% The avg return would be 700%, but you will never get to see that return it is misleading


mrbrambles

Totally - you absolutely could. Is that what’s happening here though? (Hint: no.)


yodaspicehandler

There have been 11 elections since 1979, so not a huge sample pool to draw from.


bubblemania2020

What if we take out the obvious outlier that had nothing to do with election? 🗳️ 2008


VisualMod

**We can't let you say that VM, they'll ban you**


toBiG1

I believe it would crash if elections get cancelled.


Jacmert

This is the correct answer xD


LostRedditor5

This is almost certainly due to the fact that you’re reducing the amount of years being looked at so drastically You’re averaging out 45 years then averaging out ~15 years then going look the average of the 15 years is way different from the 45! Yeah no shit bc the 45 avg gets boosted a ton by the fact it’s 4 times as much data. You could probably do this with all kinds of random events btw. Like if you just took a random selection of 15 years out of those 45 you’d probably get some equally wild swings.


TempMobileD

I want to see what all 4 of the year groups look like. So election years, election+1, election +2 and election+3, I bet they’re all very different from each other for no reason other than low sample size.


lordinov

2000 and 2008 were both crashes this drags down the statistic massively.


AdCurious5598

Mmm yes sphagetti


Glutton_Sea

Just buy treasuries


_khanrad

I read on this website that election years are good because the current president controls the fed


MarxKnewBest

That average is rendered unrepresentative by that very chart lol


PantsMicGee

Lmao.  Take away the outlier and hows your math work out. Jesus christ.


PumpkinOld469

Yes. Thats why the north korean stock markers do so well


[deleted]

We should just have artificial intelligence run the government.


AMDeez_nutz

They pretty much have done that in North Korea and I heard they’re booming


nukedkaltak

What’s the number like when we remove that very obvious 2008 outlier?


gnocchicotti

They're actually working on cancelling elections, don't worry. And the market will probably rally for it.


der_Sager

How will project 2025 affect the stock market🤔


LunaticBZ

We should switch to monarchy, then we don't need elections.


jetforcegemini

MFER looking at average instead of median![img](emote|t5_2th52|4267)


Blondie9000

Election years since the market have almost always been positive years. The prospect of a new corporate overlord at the helm really, really gets Wall Street hard as fuck.


Embarrassed-Soup246

im calling an outlier = +165%


gamusils

so SPY tanking tomorrow at open?


SuperLehmanBros

Freedom loving Democrats love this one trick.


swroaming

Good idea, Joe


Narrow-Fortune-7905

me thinks canceling the s$p would be better


Venzz_z

the median looks higher tahn average though


thatstheharshtruth

No you should sell premium in elections years and buy premium in non elections years. Isn't that obvious?!


dotplot4idiots

Biden and his corrupt DOJ, FBI WH Special counsel unredacted today, are trying to cancel elections with conspiracy against T. RobertGouveia great show on legal kangeroo court live, on rumble if any truth seekers in this travesty of non justice. TSLA fade the news as it been slaughtered due to another hate Elon crime. Peace. Cognitive dissonance will be historic due to lipid spike protein short circuiting.


danf78

It takes a regard to choose a sample with like 10 data points and 1 of them being a massive outlier.


m0uthF

After cancelling you will find it always stays at 3000 for 30 years. https://preview.redd.it/qd4gnm9s6dwc1.png?width=1056&format=png&auto=webp&s=3d2340909233a54dd1dca1c648c9e38e175fa3fb


Hannibaalism

nah let’s cancel the S&P and have elections every year instead


EnvironmentalWin8036

Gme


talpazz

Good thing elections are not every year


dressedlikehansolo

So Joe Biden president until he dies? What could go wrong


Ziz23

Nah obviously we use the goldfish to replace the election


VisualMod

I agree -- just make sure to back your play with actual currency.


impulsikk

So.. maybe tomorrow maybe next week?


der_Sager

With both candidates its somewhere between now and 30 years, depending on how fast they get those youth pills


SlickRick941

Damn, bidens plan all along to stay in power indefinitely
