Month by month
The stock's clearest edge over the S&P 500 lands in November (+4.0 pts); it has trailed the market most in March (−6.1 pts).
“vs S&P” is Acadia Realty Trust’s average for a month minus the S&P 500’s average for that same month — isolating Acadia Realty Trust’s own seasonal edge from broad market drift.
Reality check
Over the last 5 years, June has closed higher 60% of the time versus 80% across the last 10 years — the pattern is weakening.
Figures are the typical (median) June 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
The seasonal story is really one month's story — June. It has closed higher in 8 of 10 Junes, a concentration the rest of the calendar can't touch.
The strength looks broad-based rather than freakish: its average (+1.5%) and median (+2.6%) sit close together, so no single blow-out year is flattering the figure. That reliability comes with real swings, mind — even June ranges by 8.0% from year to year, so any single year can land far from the average. Better still, that strength is the stock's own and not just a buoyant market — June has outpaced the S&P 500 by +1.3 points on average. Few peers keep such company in June — the typical stock clears it just 52% of the time.
It doesn't stand entirely alone — February, July, and November have leaned firm as well, if less emphatically. On the other side of the ledger, May has been the soft spot — the weakest of 5 months that average a loss (−1.2%), and the edge isn't year-round — the stock has trailed the S&P 500 in March, September, and October. Its roughest month on record was a −45.7% March in 2020 — a reminder of how hard even a seasonal name can fall.
The pattern has softened of late, June's last five years slipping below its longer-run record.
For a stock this dependable in June, the sharper question is the rest of the year — outside its strong stretch, the calendar gives far less to lean on.
Short answers on the stock's best month (June), its worst (May), and whether it really trades seasonally.
Only mildly. The stock's months are fairly even — June is the firmest (+1.5%) and May the softest (−1.2%), a narrow spread that points to weak seasonality rather than a strong calendar effect.
June has been the strongest, averaging +1.5% and closing higher in 8 of 10 years since 2016.
It's the weakest, averaging −1.2% — historically a soft spot, though it still varies from year to year.
