Month by month
The stock's clearest edge over the S&P 500 lands in June (+3.2 pts); it has trailed the market most in March (−5.1 pts).
“vs S&P” is Armada Hoffler Properties, Inc.’s average for a month minus the S&P 500’s average for that same month — isolating Armada Hoffler Properties, Inc.’s own seasonal edge from broad market drift.
Reality check
Over the last 5 years, November has closed higher 80% of the time versus 80% across the last 10 years — the pattern is holding.
Figures are the typical (median) November return and how often it rose — the last 5 years versus the last 10(the heatmap’s default window). This verdict stays anchored to that 10-year window even if you zoom the chart, so it never disagrees with the badges above.
In plain English
Strip the year back and a single month does the heavy lifting: November, up in 8 of 10 Novembers while the other eleven tend to blur together.
A typical November brings +3.1%, a shade under the +4.7% average. Crucially, the gain is the stock's own rather than a rising tide's: November has cleared the S&P 500 by +2.3 points above the index. That consistency sets it apart from the field, where the average stock manages November only about 62% of the time.
The strength clusters rather than stands alone — October–December forms a firm stretch that carries much of the year. At the other end of the calendar, September has been the soft spot — the weakest of 5 months that average a loss (−3.5%), and the edge isn't year-round — the stock has trailed the S&P 500 in March, September, and April. Its roughest month on record was a −36.5% March in 2020 — a reminder of how hard even a seasonal name can fall.
Reassuringly, the tendency has held its shape: the recent five years still track the years behind them.
The takeaway is less about when to buy than what to expect: November aside, the stock's months offer little reliable tilt.
Short answers on the stock's best month (November), its worst (September), and whether it really trades seasonally.
