Question: No way around it - 2017 was a great year to own stocks. The S&P 500 index had risen almost 20 percent over the year. And the Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 25 percent over the same period  buoying portfolios  dividends and retirement accounts. And it's a similar story around the world on financial markets in Japan  Hong Kong and the United Kingdom. All this happened despite a wave of political turmoil in the U.S. and around the globe. To find out why 2017 was such a bull year  we're joined now by  NPR senior business editor Uri Berliner . Hi  Uri.
 URI BERLINER   BYLINE: Hey  Ray.
 BERLINER : Well  you know  despite all this tension and political volatility and geopolitical uncertainty  it actually was a good year for the global economy and remarkably kind of a stable one. Corporate earnings were very strong. Inflation is in check. Sort of the sense that the financial crisis of 2008 is really behind us now. I think economies around the world felt that more confidently. And every single country  every major developed country grew last year which is a remarkable thing. It just doesn't happen that often.
 BERLINER : Well  really  you know  since the end of the financial crisis  the stock market in the U.S. has just been on a roll. It's had a number of really good years. In 2009  the S&P 500 was up more than 26 percent. In 2013  it was up more than 32 percent. So stocks have had a lot of good years but this was especially notable  this one.
 BERLINER : Well  I think a lot of this just has to do with corporate earnings. I mean  markets look at corporate earnings very closely. This is really their bread and butter. And  you know  companies throughout the U.S. - technology companies  all kinds of companies - posted really stellar earnings. And there was strong earnings growth overseas as well. So  you know  I think this market has just looked at a - an unusually stable year economically despite  and in spite of all craziness  all the turmoil  all the threatening situations around - the world the volatility and the fear in the economy just wasn't there.
 BERLINER : Right  exactly. As you said  you know  half of Americans own stocks. And for them  it was a very good year. And to some extent  if those people feel wealthier  they may spend more. That's called a wealth effect. That may boost the economy a little bit. But those people who don't own stocks  they don't benefit directly in any way from this big year in the stock market. And even those who do own stock  they're really concentrated mostly among people who are wealthy - six-figure earners  seven-figure earners. Those are the people who own most of the stock in the U.S.  and even those who own some  many of them don't own that much.
SUAREZ: That's  NPR's Uri Berliner . Thanks a lot  Uri.
 BERLINER : You're welcome  Ray.

Answer: Global Markets Remain Immune To A Year Of Political Volatility : NPR


Question: American Sage Kotsenburg won gold in the event at the Sochi Games in 2014. We brought him into the âOlympics Cornerâ today for his thoughts on how to watch. Keep scrolling to read that Q&A.
Throughout the Games  weâll occasionally bring someone in to help us better understand the Olympics. Today:  Sage Kotsenburg .
Four years ago in Sochi   Sage Kotsenburg  shocked the snowboarding world by winning slopestyle gold.  He  followed that up with what President Barack Obama told  him  was the âchillestâ interview of the Olympics.  Kotsenburg  has since stopped competing  so  he  wonât be in PyeongChang. But The Post caught up with  him  by phone during a recent film shoot in Italy to get  his  thoughts on this yearâs slopestyle event (8 p.m. Eastern time Saturday on NBCSN).
A: Three people that I would look for are an American kid  Red Gerard.  He âs absolutely crushing it right now. This course  when I saw it  I immediately thought Red can really do well here. I wouldnât be surprised to see  him  on the podium  if not up in the top five.
And then Mark McMorris  who got bronze last time around.  He  came back from a really  really bad injury  so Iâd like to see  him  do good  too. Weâve been good friends for a long time.  He âs crushing it  too.  He âs doing a really  really  really good job right now. Iâd like to see  him  up there.
Iâll give a prediction for gold: Itâs going to be Marcus Kleveland.  He âs from Norway.  He  has pretty much anything you want in a slopestyle course and more. So  if  he  puts down  his  run   he âll probably win or silver  Iâd guess.

Answer: Olympics Day 2: PyeongChang awards the first medals of the Games


Question: At a Saturday afternoon rally in Seattle , Washington , Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders was shut down by screeching Black Lives Matters protestors . 
Bernie 's arrival in Seattle is largely significant in the context of the state of emergency Black lives are in locally as well as across America . 
This city is filled with white progressives , which is why Bernie Sanders ' camp was obviously expecting a friendly and consenting audience for today 's campaign visit . 
White progressive Seattle and Bernie Sanders can not call themselves liberals while they participate in the racist system that claims Black lives . 
Bernie Sanders will not continue to call himself a man of the people , while ignoring the plight of Black people . 
Today BLM Seattle , with the support of other Black organizers and non-Black allies and accomplices , held Bernie Sanders publicly accountable for his lack of support for the Black Lives Matter movement and his blatantly silencing response to the # SayHerName # IfIDieInPoliceCustody action that took place at Netroots this year .

Answer:
Bernie Sanders Forced Off Seattle Stage By Black Lives Matter .
