Reality check
Not enough recent September history to say whether the pattern still holds.
Figures are the typical (median) September return and how often it rose — the last 2 years versus the last 2(the heatmap’s default window). This verdict stays anchored to that 2-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: September, up in all 2 Septembers while the other eleven tend to blur together.
Its average (+26.7%) and median (+26.7%) land within a hair of each other — the tell of steady, year-after-year gains rather than one outlier doing the work. That reliability comes with real swings, mind — even September ranges by 20.0% from year to year, so any single year can land far from the average. Crucially, the gain is the stock's own rather than a rising tide's: September has cleared the S&P 500 by +26.8 points above the index. It bucks the broad tape, besides: September lifts just 39% of stocks across the market.
The strength clusters rather than stands alone — July–September forms a firm stretch that carries much of the year. On the other side of the ledger, May has been the soft spot — the weakest of 4 months that average a loss (−13.7%), and the edge isn't year-round — the stock has trailed the S&P 500 in May, December, and June. Its roughest month on record was a −19.8% December in 2024 — a reminder of how hard even a seasonal name can fall.
The takeaway is less about when to buy than what to expect: September aside, the stock's months offer little reliable tilt. With a short 2-year record, the signal is best held loosely.
Short answers on the stock's best month (September), its worst (May), and whether it really trades seasonally.
Yes, to a pronounced degree. Since 2024 its best month (September, +26.7%) has run well ahead of its worst (May, −13.7%) — the heatmap above shows how steady that gap has been year to year.
September has been the strongest, averaging +26.7% and closing higher in all 2 years on record since 2024.
It's the weakest, averaging −13.7% — historically a soft spot, though it still varies from year to year.
