FYI: Historically, September has been the worst month of the year for the US equity market. But further research into the historical numbers shows that investors may not need to be as concerned about this September.
In the chart below, we show the S&P 500’s average percentage change in the month of September and from September through year end based on a number of performance-related scenarios.
For all years since 1928, the S&P has averaged a decline of 1.05% in September, and the index has averaged a gain of 1.81% from September through year end.
