Another Election Year Trend one cannot ignore is the stock market. 

Election years in the Stock Market have a tendency to exhibit a fairly firm and upward bias. Looking back over the last 50 years the stock market has done rather nicely during a president’s last two years. Narrowing that down to election years  itself,  the average gain is about  7.7 %. with only 3 out of the last 13 election years being down years. Which should be of interest here and now , since the Major averages are all lower on the year right now.  

Of the last six election year periods from mid May to election day the S&P 500 has been up 
every time …We remain on the bull side of stocks..

Happy Trading!
