The stock market has been one of President Donald Trump’s favorite metrics for how the nation is doing. The awkward part: The market hasn’t performed as well under his administration as it has under prior presidents however it still managed a healthy gain.

Between Trump’s inauguration in 2017 his last full day in office, the S&P 500 (SPX), the broadest measure of the US stock market, climbed 67%.

That’s a huge jump considering it included the pandemic selloff last March when the market was gripped by panic and the S&P logged its worst day in decades.

Trump often proclaimed market records on Twitter (TWTR), seeing them as the achievement of his administration.

“Now the stock market is actually substantially higher than it was at its higher point prior to the pandemic,” Trump said in his departure speech Wednesday.

He’s correct that stocks are currently trading in record territory, and therefore at a higher level than before the pandemic.
