Investor replied on Friday, July 18, 2008 05:37 AM For reference, this forum has historical prices for July/August (add some skew/margin error/Islmaic calendar adjustment), and January/February for previous three to four years. Prices tend to peak in first quarter of the year, and tend to bottom in third quarter. Moreover, your RESEARCH and HOMEWORK are the keywords here. This is not blind investment strategy. Seasonal edge is about TIMING only. There is NO FREE LUNCH. It's not a one dimensional world. The Quality of your investment is more important than timing. The Quality of your investment depends on your research and detailed know-how of what you are investing in. Don't expect guaranteed result if you choose to make a bad investment. Your timing can't save you much if the quality of investment is bad. There are hundreds of choices. You have to do the grading based on parameters you prefer most and consider of most value. If you do your research from Feb to June (~ five months), you can narrow down some fundamentally sound investments which are well below their worth. Buy during July/August period for best timing of the year to enter in good investments (for short-term perspective). (BTW, this does not mean a good investment cannot be made at other times. If you have a keen eye to spot good long term investments with good micro-timing any time can be good time for you.) Regards, Investor |
