As we approach the year’s final month, investors often use seasonality analysis to predict how stocks will perform in December.
Seasonality analysis uses historical patterns to anticipate market movements based on time of year, helping traders make informed decisions about their portfolios
Seasonality analysis involves examining a stock’s historical performance. The core idea is to recognise how a stock has behaved during the same month in previous years
Key Elements of Seasonality Analysis
- Monthly Average Performance
This metric looks at a stock’s average return during a specific month over several years. If a stock has shown consistent positive returns in December over the past decade, it might be a good candidate for positive performance this year. - Positive Ratio
The positive ratio is a crucial statistic in seasonality analysis. It calculates how often a stock has closed higher in a particular month compared to its total number of years of data. A higher positive ratio indicates that the stock has reliably performed well during that month.
