Seasonal Chart Analysis

Analysis of the Vanguard S&P 500 Index ETF (CAD-hedged) (TSE:VSP.TO) seasonal charts above shows that a Buy Date of October 1 and a Sell Date of December 20 has resulted in a geometric average return of 0.24% above the benchmark rate of the S&P 500 Total Return Index over the past 7 years. This seasonal timeframe has shown positive results compared to the benchmark in 4 of those periods. This is a fair rate of success and the return outperforms the relative buy-and-hold performance of the stock over the past 7 years by an average of 1.3% per year.

A word of caution: Only 7 years of data is available for shares of VSP.TO, perhaps insufficient to create a seasonal profile that accurately gauges the seasonal tendencies influencing the investment. Ideally, while 20 years is preferred, at least 10 years of data is required to perform a seasonal analysis that is considered to be reliable for future seasonal periods.
