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 1 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
The seasonal story is really one month's story — September. It has closed higher in all 1 Septembers, a concentration the rest of the calendar can't touch.
The strength looks broad-based rather than freakish: its average (+36.8%) and median (+36.8%) sit close together, so no single blow-out year is flattering the figure. No month is steadier: September's returns vary by just 0.0% year to year, and even its worst September in 2 years lost only 36.8% — the gentlest downside anywhere on its calendar. Better still, that strength is the fund's own and not just a buoyant market — September has outpaced the S&P 500 by +37.0 points on average. It is the more striking for the company it keeps — September is a losing month for most of the market, where barely 39% of names gain ground.
It doesn't stand entirely alone — January, April, and May have leaned firm as well, if less emphatically. The weaker half of the year is plainer: March has been the soft spot — the weakest of 6 months that average a loss (−19.3%), and the edge isn't year-round — the fund has trailed the S&P 500 in March, July, and August. Its roughest month on record was a −19.3% March in 2025 — a reminder of how hard even a seasonal name can fall.
For a fund this dependable in September, the sharper question is the rest of the year — outside its strong stretch, the calendar gives far less to lean on. With a short 2-year record, the signal is best held loosely.
Short answers on the fund's best month (September), its worst (March), and whether it really trades seasonally.
