Stock Market Seasonality: Sell in May, Santa Rally
Calendar anomalies in equities have been documented for decades — none large enough to be a strategy on its own, but all useful as context for the seasonal backdrop.
Statistical Significance of Seasonal Patterns
A seasonal average that looks good on a chart can still be pure noise — only a proper significance test tells you whether the pattern has a real edge or is just a random cluster of lucky years.
