Santa Rally – Will The 90% Record Continue This Christmas?

To receive your report, please complete the form opposite.

Your free Santa Rally report will highlight 5 key focus areas:

  • The UK Index ‘s hit-rate for positive festive performance?
  • Who has risen in 17 of the past 19 Decembers?
  • Which financial has an average gain of 7.7% at Xmas?
  • Which stock has the most/least volatility at Xmas?

With only 5 weeks to go until Christmas, it is not long before equities begin what the old market adage hails as the traditional end-of year gains otherwise known as the Santa Rally and thus Christmas shopping for the stocks with the best potential.

Looking back over 21 years, the UK 100 index has risen 19 times (90% of the time) in December with gains ranging from a lacklustre 0.3% to an impressive 7.9%. On 7 occasions it gained more than 3% (‘93, ’97, ’99, ’03, ’08, ’09, and ’10). Its average return is 2.3%. The disappointmentshttps://www.accendomarkets.com/UK Index -100/ belong to 1994 (-0.5%) and 2002 when the index gave up a considerable 5.5%.

With this in mind, are we due to see the markets gain for the 20th of the last 22 years?
