Chart of the Day

With the 2008 presidential campaign now in full swing, today's chart illustrates how the stock market has performed during the average election year. Whether you refer to the average election year since 1900 or 1980, the first five months of the election year have tended to be choppy. That choppiness was then followed with a rally right up to the November election. One theory to support this election year stock market behavior is that the first five months of choppiness is due in part to the uncertainty of the outcome of the presidential election (the market abhors uncertainty) with the market beginning to rally as the outcome of the election becomes increasingly evident
