Calendar Effect

The theory that certain days of the week, weeks of the month, and months of the year are more likely to produce rises/falls in share prices than others. 'Sell in May and go away' is an example.

David Schwartz, a stock market commentator who has analysed stock prices since the First World War, argues that 'pockets of predictability' can be identified and used to predict future prices.
