Stock Market Long and Short-term Seasonal Trends

Stock-Markets / Seasonal Trends Nov 10, 2021 - 03:02 PM GMT

By: Nadeem_Walayat

Stock-Markets

SEASONAL ANALYSIS

The seasonal pattern suggests after a pause in Feb, higher into late April, then correct from early May into late June followed by a volatile summer terminating in a swing low during September that should set the scene for a bull run into the Christmas Holidays with of course intra month volatility during October that tends to resolve to the upside just as the perma-bears are crowing at their loudest that the end is neigh.


This year we got our strong July and a strong August which was contrary to the bull markets usual pattern. Which means that whilst the bull market has had a tendency to go against it's longer term seasonal trend by moving higher during September, nevertheless the strong August likely sows the seeds for a weak September. Then it's a case of off to the races for a Strong October, even stronger November and more gains in December courtesy of Santa all before a weak January and February.

So the seasonal pattern points to a window of opportunity spanning September and likely into Mid October to allow one to pick up stocks trading at a discount of sorts hence my original plan to buy back stocks after the October low, following which the bull trend is expected to resume into the end of the year. Especially take note of November strengthening over time which looks like the santa rally starting earlier each year as investors attempt to preempt exposure and thus December has been gradually losing it's stock market lustre to November. So one should want to be positioned BEFORE the start of November else be chasing after rising stock prices all month long.

Though note If what we have seen is THE BULL MARKET TOP then well we won't get a Santa rally, what we probably will get is a stock market bouncing around in a trading range repeatedly off or near the October lows. It's going to be an interesting next few months, imagine the shock on market participants if come December stocks aren't trading much off their October lows and perhaps nudging below from time to time.

Short-term Seasonal Trend

Short-term seasonal pattern for the past 2 years has been fairly robust, i.e. higher lows all the way! This years high going into the correction season came Mid August which therefore means there is not much time left for more downside price action before a counter trend rally, thus stocks should bottom fairly soon for a rally of sorts. Now to achieve a low around Mid October the rally would need to be pretty brief in terms of time. How likely is this pattern to unfold? The early October rally appears to be too brief to seem natural, thus we may get the rally starting earlier and continuing a little later into October which therefore suggests the final sell off continuing deeper into the 2nd half of October, maybe into the end of October so as to spread the trend out into a more natural price pattern.
