Since Barack Obama's inauguration day on 20 January, the stockmarket has tanked 20% in what Bloomberg is calling the "Obama bear market".
The Wall Street Journal blasted Obama in an editorial saying his administration is "creating more uncertainty and less confidence -- and thus a longer period of recession or subpar growth". CNBC's Jim Cramer said Obama is running a "wealth-destroying" administration.
What do you think? Is Obama the source of Wall Street's collapse?
