Reality check
Not enough recent August history to say whether the pattern still holds.
Figures are the typical (median) August return and how often it rose — the last 1 years versus the last 1(the heatmap’s default window). This verdict stays anchored to that 1-year window even if you zoom the chart, so it never disagrees with the badges above.
In plain English
This is a fund you can almost set a calendar by, and August is the anchor — it has closed higher in all 1 Augusts, the steadiest beat on its year.
The strength looks broad-based rather than freakish: its average (+15.7%) and median (+15.7%) sit close together, so no single blow-out year is flattering the figure. No month is steadier: August's returns vary by just 0.0% year to year, and even its worst August in 1 years lost only 15.7% — the gentlest downside anywhere on its calendar. Better still, that strength is the fund's own and not just a buoyant market — August has outpaced the S&P 500 by +15.4 points on average. Few peers keep such company in August — the typical stock clears it just 52% of the time.
August anchors a run, too: the August-through-October window has been the fund's reliable season. The weaker half of the year is plainer: July has been the soft spot — the weakest of 2 months that average a loss (−17.1%), and the edge isn't year-round — the fund has trailed the S&P 500 in July and November. Its roughest month on record was a −17.1% July in 2025 — a reminder of how hard even a seasonal name can fall.
For a fund this dependable in August, the sharper question is the rest of the year — outside its strong stretch, the calendar gives far less to lean on. With a short 1-year record, the signal is best held loosely.
Short answers on the fund's best month (August), its worst (July), and whether it really trades seasonally.
Yes, to a pronounced degree. Since 2025 its best month (August, +15.7%) has run well ahead of its worst (July, −17.1%) — the heatmap above shows how steady that gap has been year to year.
