Month by month
The stock's clearest edge over the S&P 500 lands in November (+6.6 pts); it has trailed the market most in March (−2.4 pts).
“vs S&P” is Ingersoll Rand Inc’s average for a month minus the S&P 500’s average for that same month — isolating Ingersoll Rand Inc’s own seasonal edge from broad market drift.
Reality check
Over the last 5 years, November has closed higher 100% of the time versus 89% across the last 9 years — the pattern is strengthening.
Figures are the typical (median) November return and how often it rose — the last 5 years versus the last 9(the heatmap’s default window). This verdict stays anchored to that 9-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. November stands out, higher in 8 of 9 Novembers, but it heads a clutch of months that pull the year reliably upward.
Its average (+8.9%) and median (+7.3%) land within a hair of each other — the tell of steady, year-after-year gains rather than one outlier doing the work. Crucially, the gain is the stock's own rather than a rising tide's: November has cleared the S&P 500 by +6.6 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 — November–January forms a firm stretch that carries much of the year. On the other side of the ledger, April is the year's low point, though even there the stock has stayed positive on average (+3.7%), a sign every month leans up, and the edge isn't year-round — the stock has trailed the S&P 500 in March, December, and June. Its roughest month on record was a −22.6% March in 2020 — a reminder of how hard even a seasonal name can fall.
November has now closed higher 7 years running. If anything it has sharpened recently — the last five Novembers run ahead of the earlier years.
The takeaway is less about when to buy than what to expect: November aside, the stock's months offer little reliable tilt. With a short 9-year record, the signal is best held loosely.
Short answers on the stock's best month (November), its worst (April), and whether it really trades seasonally.
Yes, to a moderate degree. Since 2017 its best month (November, +8.9%) has run well ahead of its worst (April, +3.7%) — the heatmap above shows how steady that gap has been year to year.
November has been the strongest, averaging +8.9% and closing higher in 8 of 9 years since 2017.
It's the weakest month, but it has still averaged a small gain (+3.7%) — quiet rather than genuinely bad.
