[PRO] How to trade Japan’s electionAfter Japan voted on Monday, the Nikkei 225 rose on the results. But that might not herald a long-term trend. Here’s how market strategists think ********* assets will behave as the dust settles on Japan’s election. The bottom line November is one of my favorite months of the year. The weather starts getting chilly as the wet and blustery monsoon, bringing cold November rain, sweeps across Southeast Asia. Markets also like November, though for completely different reasons. They like heat, and November brings it. Average returns for the S&P 500 in November across several time periods — since 1950, past 10 years, election years — have been the highest compared with any other month, according to This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up . The last time the S&P fell more than 1% in November was during the global financial crisis of 2008. That observation’s corroborated by Goldman Sachs, which notes that Oct. 28 marks the beginning of “the best trading ******* of Q4 for U.S. equities with data going back to 1928,” wrote Scott Rubner, the bank’s managing director for global markets. Markets did indeed rise yesterday. The S&P added 0.27%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 0.65% and the Nasdaq Composite advanced 0.26%. That added to the S&P’s year-to-date gain, which stands at 22.1%. That strong showing in the earlier part of the year boosts November’s seasonal effect even more, according to Bank of America’s Chief Equity Technical Strategist Stephen Suttmeier. “When the SPX is up YTD through October, which is the likely scenario for 2024, the index is up 79% of the time for the November-December ******* on average,” wrote Suttmeier in a Monday note. Before getting too excited, however, keep in mind analysts are bullish on stocks over a two-month *******. The year ahead stretches long and wide: nothing lasts forever, even stocks’ November reign. — CNBC’s Alex Harring, Pia Singh, Scott Schnipper, Hakyung Kim and Tanaya Macheel contributed to this report.
