NEW YORK - U.S. President Donald Trump may give himself credit for the performance of the U.S. stock market during his term, but only around a third of Americans agree, according to a Reuters poll.

The poll of 1,005 people, conducted last week, showed 34% thought the market had performed better than it otherwise would have due to Trump's policies. The results showed a split along party lines, with 65% of those who identify as Republican agreeing, versus only 15% of those who identified as Democrat.

Just over a quarter, 26%, of all respondents said he focused on helping both stocks and regular workers. The poll comes as the benchmark S&P 500 has staged a nearly 44% comeback from its March lows, thanks in part to unprecedented monetary support from the Federal Reserve and a $2 trillion stimulus package from Congress.
