NASDAQ’s Best Eight Months: A Stalling Market
Waiting for the Seasonal sell signal in the NASDAQ, other sector trades come to and end in June. Gearing up for a sideways market is the plan now, until the strong months again come later this year.
Worst Six Months
‘Sell in May’ critics are running wild this year. Meanwhile, bearish trends are usually strong in the next six months. Historically, these months warrant caution.
Seasonality: Copper Continues
Markets have hit the typical weak part of December right on schedule. Things should brighten for the bulls by Christmas. Copper has been strong and is entering a seasonally bullish time of the year .
Seasonal Trades and Portfolio Update
Natural Gas, Energy and Copper still have to show signs of life to fulfill their usual bullish winter runs. Meanwhile, Strong US equity markets have lead to excellent returns in the model portfolios that adhere to seasonal trade stratagies. Expect some modest seasonal weakness soon, though.
