S&P500 - Santa Claus Rally - 1970 to 2022

Submitted by Mental_Badger_2762 t3_zzpgnm in wallstreetbets

We still have a couple of trading days to go before we're able to determine if the end of the 2022 Santa Claus Rally will finish in positive territory.

  • Santa Claus Rally average from 1970 to 2021 is 1.29%.
  • Santa Claus Rally 10 year moving average, not including 2022, currently sitting at 0.7%.
  • S&P500 annual average from 1970 to 2022 is 8.96%.
  • S&P500 10 year moving average including 2022 is 11.8%.

Interesting to note the Santa Claus Rally accounts for only 3% of trading days for the year however, it's returns account for over 14% of the S&P500's average annual return. Which means on average we're around 5 times more likely to make a profit 'going long' during this period than any other time of the year.

In a few days I will post an updated chart including the end of the 2022 Santa Claus Rally.

Happy new year everyone :)

>It's no surprise that the Santa Claus Rally is such a profitable time for investors, considering how much better off they are than everyone else. I'm sure the returns will be even higher next year!

Santa was a boomer and also had a sex change and retired . Santa now identifies as santashe and can be found living on the south pole .this why the stock market is weak

Quit making my calls nervous. Talk about how sure fire puts are going to be this coming week instead. These posts never fail to be dead wrong somehow.
