The thing about Sells is that if you ignore them you are missing a large piece of Profit. When it Sells, it Sells down much faster than it Buys up so I love a good Sell if I can get on board fast enough.
But in general I tend to agree, I think December probably finishes higher.
I was sent this e-mail two or three weeks ago......I haven't checked it's validity but I thought it was neat enough to save....(along with roughly 500 other pieces of mail, no joke).

>>From WSJ:
"Every year ending in zero since 1960 has had a recession, notes Argus Research Corp. economist Richard Yamarone. Only four decades in American history have avoided the zero curse: 1860, 1880, 1940 and 1950".
>>From Yale Hirsch "Don't Sell Stocks on Monday":
"Zero years have been dreadful years or have at least been hit hard before turning up in 1960 (September), 1950 (July), 1970 (May) and 1980 (March)."
Also, years 1900, 1920, 1940, 1960, 1980, and 2000 (?) are election years. |
