S&P 500: Seasonal Correction Starting in August/September?
The analyst expects a 10–20% correction in the S&P 500, likely beginning in August to September. This is based on historical patterns in midterm election years (2022, 2018, 2014).
- 2024 So Far: Shallow correction in June, followed by a rally in July – typical summer behavior.
- Historical Precedents:
- 2022: Topped mid-August, then −19%.
- 2018: Topped mid-September, then −20%.
- 2014: Topped September, then −10%.
- Potential Triggers: Fears around the semiconductor sector or general seasonal weakness.
- Connection to Bitcoin: This correction could align with Bitcoin's four-year cycle bottom in the fall.
Conclusion: The analyst sees a high probability of a seasonal correction in late summer/early autumn, mirroring the last three midterm years. Investors should watch for weakness in August/September.
