  3. SP500 Seasonality: The 4-year US Presidential Election Year Cycle shows a peak in late January to early February, then a shallow drop into mid-March and a big rally into year end.

SP-500 Seasonality for 2024:

Wave Count(s):

  1. The primary (white/green) count is that minor 3 of major [3]-P3-C3 wave up is underway and should continue to grind higher during year 2024 to a target at 5798, where minor 3 = 1.62*minor 1. (Note: that on the daily chart the large Cup & Handle Pattern has a target at 5722 on the break above 4607). Within minor 3, the first minute (1) completed at 5048, where v=1.62i. The minute (2) wave or minor 3 pull-back completed at 4920, just above the 38% Fib at 4909. The minute (3) wave up is underway with a target at 5481, where (3)=1.62(1). Within minute (3), the wave i-(3) target is at 5150. Once wave i-(3) completes near 5150, the wave ii-(3) pull-back to a 50% Fib would take the SP500 to 5035. Note: The primary (white/green) wave count remains valid above 4920.
