October is almost in the books and that means November is right around the corner. The second month of the fourth quarter is historically kind to stocks. Over the past 20 years, the S&P 500 has averaged November gains of 1.2%, making it the fourth-best month of the year for benchmark domestic equity gauge behind March, April, and October.

Of course, there are no guarantees that seasonal trends repeat from year-to-year, but knowing the months in which stocks typically perform well can be instructive. Add to that, stocks have some momentum heading into the eleventh month of the year. The S&P 500 is up 24% this year, sits near record highs, and has, to this point, defied October’s often-volatile reputation.
