Chart of the Day
Todayโs Chart of the Day was shared by Jeff Hirsch (@AlmanacTrader). The S&P 500 dropped -1.22% on Friday, but it was essentially flat this week (+0.16%). Everyone knows September has historically been the worst month for stocks, but the weakness doesnโt typically show up until the second half. As we enter the weaker half, Jeff points out that the major indices fared worse than usual in the better half of September. To understand why this could be a bearish omen for the second half of the month, weโll leave you with that quote from Edson Gould, โIf the market does not rally, as it should during bullish seasonal periods, it is a sign that other forces are stronger and that when the seasonal period ends those forces will really have their say.โ
Quote of the Day
โTrading gives you an incredibly intense feeling of what life is all about.โ
