When is the Best Time to Buy in 2023

Our analysis tools show you the best time historically to buy is to sell.

The basic idea is: For example, if a stock always rises by an average of 8% every October,
there is a very high probability that it will also rise by 8% the next October.

Timing and Repeatability

For everyone, timing is a very important factor in optimizing profits.

And for a constant success, the repeatability of the approach is crucial.

Why does the price of a share rise?

There are many reasons for the price of a share to rise.
What is much more interesting is whether the price rises every time.

If a stock always rises by an average of 8% every October, there is a very high probability that it will also rise by 8% the next October.

These are the very good entry points for you.

Let's look at a some examples


These examples have been known for a long time and are used intensively by experts.
But there are many more good opportunities.

The best-known seasonal pattern in the stock market is:
""Sell in May and go away, but remember to come back in September!""

The following chart shows the different performance of the SP500 over the last 70 years if it had been bought or sold in May.
Prices rise much more from October to April than from May to the end of September.



The recurring strength of precious metals in the early weeks of the year is exceptional.
The chart shows the seasonal performance of gold, silver, copper, palladium and platinum.

These precious metals rise the most in the first weeks of the year compared to the rest of the year.



Election years have a very strong impact on the stock market.
For example, the SP500 has always closed in positive territory in the year before an election.

The year following an election also has a very good hit rate of over 87% in which the SP500 closes the year with a gain.
The worst performance is in the mid-term election year. Those who have to invest in a mid-term election year can optimise their profits by applying the Sell in May rule.


Microsoft's stock usually rises sharply from mid-October to mid-November.
The hit rate is very good. Only in 2003 and 2012 was there a significant loss. In all other years, the share price rose.
On 11 occasions, the share price even rose by more than 10%.


The comparison shows two shares from the healthcare sector and illustrates which share has generated higher profits in the past.
In this example, it is clear that the Eli Lilly share has a better hit rate (over 95%).
Comparisons are an essential part of any analysis.


There are also seasonal patterns within a month.
The monthly pattern shows that in the second half of the month, the TLT ETF has gained a total of 183.41% over the past 20 years.
This is equivalent to an average annual return of 9.17%.
