    Presidents and Stock Market

    Is there a pattern to stock market activity relative to who is president? I got year-end Dow Jones numbers from this web-site (http://www.cfainstitute.org/pressroom/overview/cfa40yr_timeline.html) and graphed them. The only pattern I've noticed is that for most presidents (Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, GWBush), the Dow ends lower after their first year in office. The numbers and graphs are here: http://homepage.mac.com/keithray/dowJonesPresidents.xls.pdf
