I HAVE LOOKED AT DOW HISTORICAL DATA AND FOUND REASONS THAT DAYS OF THE WEEK HAVE A REAL TRADING INFLUENCE ON YOUR MONEY.
Research into stock market returns has identified a phenomenon known as the "day of the week effect" or "weekend effect," suggesting certain days may historically exhibit better or worse performance than others.
Days with historically better gains
Tuesdays: Studies analyzing S&P 500 performance from 2000 to 2024 indicate Tuesdays have historically produced the highest average daily returns. Some analyses even show Tuesdays alone having a better stock market performance than all five trading days combined. This trend appears robust, even during bear markets.
Days with historically weaker gains
Mondays and Fridays: These days have historically shown the lowest average daily returns for the S&P 500. This could be due to several factors, including bad news released over the weekend leading to negative sentiment on Monday or a general decrease in market activity as investors prepare for the weekend on Friday.
Wednesdays: Some analyses show Wednesdays as having weaker performance compared to Tuesdays and Thursdays. However, other sources suggest they can be days of higher returns.
Important considerations
Statistical Significance: While these patterns have been observed, their statistical significance and practical implications for investors are debated.
Efficiency and Arbitrage: Market efficiency suggests that if such patterns are consistent and predictable, traders will likely exploit them, potentially causing the effects to diminish over time as they are arbitraged away.
Long-Term Investing: For long-term investors, the day of the week is likely less impactful than a well-diversified portfolio and a consistent investment strategy like dollar-cost averaging.
In essence, while some historical data suggests potential variations in daily stock market performance, relying solely on the day of the week for investment decisions is generally not recommended due to the complexity of market behavior and the potential for these effects to be diminished by market forces.
I HAVE NOTICED THAT A SOCIALIST NEWS MEDIA WILL ALWAYS TRY TO SPIN LABOR, TARIFF, INFLATION, EMPLOYMENT, AND OTHER STATISTICS TO CAUSE DOW CHAOS DURING THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION. IT USUALLY TAKES 24-48 HOURS FOR TRUTH TO COME FORWARD AND THAT CHAOS TO CLEAR.
In the United States, several government agencies are responsible for collecting, analyzing, and reporting key economic indicators like GDP, inflation, and employment data.
Here are the primary agencies and their responsibilities:
Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA): This agency focuses on providing a comprehensive picture of the U.S. economy.
The BEA is responsible for calculating and reporting the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), which measures the market value of all final goods and services produced in the country.
They also prepare National Income and Product Accounts (NIPA), which provide information on the value and composition of national output.
Additionally, BEA reports on international trade (including the balance of payments), international investment, and regional economic data like per capita personal income and gross state product.
Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS): This agency is the principal fact-finding agency for labor economics and statistics.
The BLS is the primary source of information on the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which measures inflation, and the Producer Price Index (PPI).
They also collect and report data on employment and unemployment, including the unemployment rate and payroll employment figures.
The BLS also measures labor market activity, working conditions, and productivity.
U.S. Census Bureau: While known for population data, the Census Bureau also provides a variety of economic indicators.
They collect and report data related to business and economy, including information on construction, housing, international trade, retail trade, wholesale trade, services, and manufacturing.
The Census Bureau's economic indicator surveys offer measures of economic activity that inform business investment and policy decisions.
They also produce the Quarterly Financial Report (QFR), which includes data on corporate profits.
Department of Commerce: This department oversees the BEA and the Census Bureau, serving as a significant source of key economic indicators, including GDP, population data, and trade and investment statistics.
These agencies work collaboratively and independently to provide a comprehensive view of the U.S. economy, supporting informed decision-making by government, businesses, and the public.
MOST OF THESE AGENCIES LEAN LEFT...REMEMBER THIS IN INVESTING.
