This year has been kind of weird for the stock market. The traditional summer slide didn't happen.
This site explains the 'Sell in May and go away' strategy based on seasonal changes in the market.
"We discovered that those best days on average are October 16 for the entry into the market for its favorable seasonal period, and April 20 for the exit from the market’s favorable season. However, those are just the best days as averaged over a very long time period. Obviously the market does not begin a rally on the same day each year, or begin to decline from a top on the same day each year."
These dates are consistent with other reports that I'm aware of.
