In the US, here is often a short term dip in stocks and retail activity between early April and early May because of computation of income taxes and the payment of income taxes, which tends to deplete cash.

It doesn't seem to have much particular long term significance.

Checking consumer spending around mid-May can be a good indicator, however.
