Month by month
The stock's clearest edge over the S&P 500 lands in January (+4.3 pts); it has trailed the market most in March (−2.7 pts).
“vs S&P” is Pembina Pipeline Corp’s average for a month minus the S&P 500’s average for that same month — isolating Pembina Pipeline 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 80% 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
Strip the year back and a single month does the heavy lifting: June, up in 8 of 10 Junes while the other eleven tend to blur together.
Its average (+0.3%) and median (+1.9%) land within a hair of each other — the tell of steady, year-after-year gains rather than one outlier doing the work. Set against the S&P 500, mind, June is close to a wash — the gain mirrors the market more than it beats it. 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 — May–July forms a firm stretch that carries much of the year. The weaker half of the year is plainer: October has been the soft spot — the weakest of 4 months that average a loss (−0.9%), and the edge isn't year-round — the stock has trailed the S&P 500 in March, October, and December. Its roughest month on record was a −47.9% March in 2020 — 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 (October), and whether it really trades seasonally.
Only mildly. The stock's months are fairly even — June is the firmest (+0.3%) and October the softest (−0.9%), a narrow spread that points to weak seasonality rather than a strong calendar effect.
June has been the strongest, averaging +0.3% and closing higher in 8 of 10 years since 2016.
It's the weakest, averaging −0.9% — historically a soft spot, though it still varies from year to year.
