Month by month
The stock's clearest edge over the S&P 500 lands in June (+12.9 pts); it has trailed the market most in December (−1.9 pts).
“vs S&P” is Ridgepost Capital, Inc’s average for a month minus the S&P 500’s average for that same month — isolating Ridgepost Capital, Inc’s own seasonal edge from broad market drift.
Reality check
Over the last 5 years, August has closed higher 100% of the time versus 78% across the last 9 years — the pattern is strengthening.
Figures are the typical (median) August 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. August stands out, higher in 7 of 9 Augusts, but it heads a clutch of months that pull the year reliably upward.
Its average (+5.0%) and median (+4.1%) 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 August ranges by 12.4% 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: August has cleared the S&P 500 by +4.7 points above the index. That consistency sets it apart from the field, where the average stock manages August only about 52% of the time.
A few other months pull their weight: January, March, and April have also closed higher more often than not. The weaker half of the year is plainer: February is the year's low point, though even there the stock has stayed positive on average (+3.2%), a sign every month leans up, and the edge isn't year-round — the stock has trailed the S&P 500 in December. Its roughest month on record was a −27.4% July in 2017 — a reminder of how hard even a seasonal name can fall.
August has now closed higher 6 years running. If anything it has sharpened recently — the last five Augusts run ahead of the earlier years.
The takeaway is less about when to buy than what to expect: August aside, the stock's months offer little reliable tilt. With a short 9-year record and returns that swing hard year to year, the signal is best held loosely.
Short answers on the stock's best month (August), its worst (February), and whether it really trades seasonally.
Only mildly. The stock's months are fairly even — August is the firmest (+5.0%) and February the softest (+3.2%), a narrow spread that points to weak seasonality rather than a strong calendar effect.
August has been the strongest, averaging +5.0% and closing higher in 7 of 9 years since 2017.
It's the weakest month, but it has still averaged a small gain (+3.2%) — quiet rather than genuinely bad.
