Is September the Right Time to Sell Stocks?

Reported about 1 month ago

September has historically been the worst month for stock performance, averaging a negative return over the past 98 years. Despite this trend, the S&P 500 has seen more positive returns than negative in September over the last century, particularly in presidential election years. While factors like increased selling volume and bond offerings have been suggested as reasons for September's underperformance, many of these explanations lack solid evidence. Investors may want to reconsider selling in this month, as historical data shows that stocks have often risen more than they’ve fallen during this time.
