Seasonal investing has come to be adopted as a static approach in which funds are allocated to investments based on dates alone. The historical price analysis provides an interesting look at average annual tendencies, but it is not helpful when the underlying fundamental influences that drive prices throughout the year do not follow their historical norms, such as what is occurring in this pandemic. In this presentation, we take a look at the proprietary three-pronged approach, pioneered by Equity Clock, that incorporates seasonal, fundamental, and technical analysis as a way to improve investment returns beyond a simple date-based or buy-and-hold approach. Jon Vialoux will show you the average recurring fundamental patterns that play out in the economy and how to react when they do not play out according to seasonal norms.
