I know many measure Presidential stock market performance based on Inauguration day. But I've always thought an additional gauge/metric is also election day to election day because the market is forward looking.
Trump will still have underperformed Obama in raw nos. for the first 4 years but both had extenuating circumstances (Great Recession vs Coronavirus) and hard to compare apples-to-apples.
