Chart of the Day
π Today's Chart of the Day was shared by Ryan Detrick (@RyanDetrick).
- The S&P 500 kicked off the week with another gap-and-go to fresh all-time highs. Ryan points out that, on average, since 1950, $SPX has historically bottomed today (October 27th) before rallying into year-end.
- The final two months of the year have never been lower when $SPX was positive in the six months leading up to them, as it is now. Ryan also noted that tomorrow has historically been the best day of the year.
- Stocks powered higher through the 'weakest' part of the seasonal cycle this year, demonstrating momentum and a relentless underlying bid. However, if the index falters into year-end, it will be a red flag for 2026.
