Month by month
The stock's clearest edge over the S&P 500 lands in October (+2.8 pts); it has trailed the market most in January (−2.0 pts).
“vs S&P” is Bank First National Corp’s average for a month minus the S&P 500’s average for that same month — isolating Bank First National Corp’s own seasonal edge from broad market drift.
Reality check
Over the last 5 years, June has closed higher 80% of the time versus 90% across the last 10 years — the pattern is holding.
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
Dependability is the through-line here. June stands out, higher in 9 of 10 Junes, but it heads a clutch of months that pull the year reliably upward.
Its average (+2.8%) and median (+2.7%) land within a hair of each other — the tell of steady, year-after-year gains rather than one outlier doing the work. It is also the calendar's calmest month, its returns swinging least from year to year (a 3.1% spread), and even its worst June in 10 years lost only 2.5% — the gentlest downside anywhere on its calendar. Crucially, the gain is the stock's own rather than a rising tide's: June has cleared the S&P 500 by +2.5 points above the index. That consistency sets it apart from the field, where the average stock manages June only about 52% of the time.
The strength clusters rather than stands alone — February–August forms a firm stretch that carries much of the year. The weaker half of the year is plainer: January has been the soft spot — the only month to average an outright loss (−2.2%), and the edge isn't year-round — the stock has trailed the S&P 500 in January, July, and March. Its roughest month on record was a −18.6% July in 2019 — 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: June aside, the stock's months offer little reliable tilt.
Short answers on the stock's best month (June), its worst (January), and whether it really trades seasonally.
Yes, to a moderate degree. Since 2016 its best month (June, +2.8%) has run well ahead of its worst (January, −2.2%) — the heatmap above shows how steady that gap has been year to year.
June has been the strongest, averaging +2.8% and closing higher in 9 of 10 years since 2016.
It's the weakest, averaging −2.2% — historically a soft spot, though it still varies from year to year.
