hey i'm chris parris chief investment
[2]
officer with oak harvest financial group
[4]
we're an investment management and
[5]
retirement planning advisor located in
[7]
houston texas and welcome to our
[9]
december 17th youtube stock talk keeping
[12]
you connected to your money well the
[13]
holidays are upon us and it's time to
[15]
talk about santa claus whether you
[17]
believe in the man or not or celebrate
[19]
the christmas holidays or not
[21]
historically the positive seasonal
[23]
effects on the overall stock market is a
[25]
real historical phenomenon statistically
[28]
speaking given our 2022 market outlook
[31]
and given we are filming this segment
[32]
before the federal reserve met earlier
[35]
this week we are not going to try to
[36]
predict whether the anomaly in the
[38]
calendar year continues this year
[40]
and given our longer term focus for
[42]
clients we won't be trying to trade
[44]
tactically around whether it happens
[47]
over the next two weeks however our
[48]
investment team did want to put out some
[50]
data to educate our clients and viewers
[53]
on the tactical trading strategy in its
[55]
historical pattern and viewers please
[57]
recall that year to date against the
[59]
calls from precedent market action it's
[62]
been a very normal first year
[64]
presidential cycle in the stock markets
[66]
so here's the data while many
[68]
strategists talk about the strong
[69]
seasonal tendencies for the month of
[71]
december of the 12 months in the year it
[74]
has the highest percentage chance of
[76]
being positive as it is up almost 75
[79]
percent
[80]
or three out of four years few
[82]
strategists break it down and discuss
[84]
how december by itself is loan
[87]
unique month whose inter-month trading
[90]
pattern is exactly opposite the other 11
[93]
months out of the year so what do i mean
[94]
by this unlike the other 11 months
[97]
december shows much stronger return over
[99]
the last 10 trading days of the year
[102]
versus the first 10 trading days
[104]
according to merrill lynch data since
[105]
1929 that's over 90 years of data the
[109]
first 10 trading days of december have
[110]
basically been an average return
[113]
of zero
[114]
the first half of december a big zero
[117]
however the last 10 trading days are
[119]
much stronger averaging almost one and a
[122]
quarter percent return into year end
[124]
hence the phrase the santa claus rally
[127]
additionally the santa party has usually
[129]
hung around until early january as the
[132]
first 10 trading days of january have
[133]
had an average return of about 0.75
[136]
percent or three quarters of a percent
[140]
so cumulatively the 20-day return from
[143]
the second half of december through the
[145]
first 10 days of january has averaged 2
[148]
percent for those that are tactically
[150]
inclined that's a pretty nice expected
[151]
return with pretty good odds
[154]
many viewers will ask well if it's so
[156]
well researched and advertised why does
[158]
it keep working given the efficient
[160]
market thesis
[161]
well listeners that's a great question
[163]
with no perfect answer however i will
[165]
give you some recent data why it is more
[167]
likely than not to happen again this
[169]
year we've discussed investor sentiment
[172]
and positioning many times over the past
[173]
three years in our podcasts
[175]
well the first data set published by aai
[179]
that data set being an individual
[181]
investor sentiment hit its highest
[183]
bearish reading for all of 2021 post the
[186]
thanksgiving early december sell-off
[188]
recall the investment team at oakharves
[190]
follows this data as it tends to be a
[192]
great contrary indicator on the market's
[195]
next move investors were nearing
[197]
euphoric levels in mid-november near the
[199]
market's short-term top and then in a
[201]
matter of two weeks they were nearing
[203]
max fear in early december after the
[205]
market had dropped a little over five
[207]
percent so much for buy low and sell
[209]
high the second data set i monitor in
[211]
real time is the cost of insuring your
[213]
portfolio against declines and i've
[215]
spoken about this cost multiple times
[217]
over the last three years listeners on
[219]
friday december 3rd in the depth of
[221]
margin calls for selling in panic
[224]
what did our insurance indicator read
[227]
well it's saying the same thing the near
[229]
same panic reading as friday october
[232]
30th 2020 pre-presidential election
[235]
longer-term listeners might recall that
[237]
being the low for the last 12 months and
[240]
the day we released our podcast titled
[242]
waiting no more this is how early bull
[244]
markets look will we all look back at
[247]
december 3rd 2021 in the next 10 to 12
[250]
months is the markets low for the
[251]
subsequent 12 months i don't know but i
[254]
do know that this reading tells us that
[256]
investors are no longer euphoric and
[258]
bullishly positioned for a year-end
[260]
santa claus rally
[262]
so if pressed on our opinion of an
[264]
upcoming year in santa claus rally i
[266]
would venture a guess that whether you
[267]
believe in the man the myth or the
[269]
legend that the odds are high that santa
[272]
delivers his gifts on time to close out
[274]
what has been by oak harvest forecast
[276]
for over 12 months a very normal
[279]
