Do you believe in the US presidential cycle theory? Yale Hirsch, the creator of the “Stock’s Trader’s Almanac” developed this theory. It states that the stock market performs well in the second half of a presidential term when the current president tries to improve the economy to get re-elected. Thereafter, the stock market underperforms and the cycle continues. This course aims to explain the S&P 500 return in the election years by leveraging on Workspace.
