“vs S&P” is TKO Group Holdings, Inc.’s average for a month minus the S&P 500’s average for that same month — isolating TKO Group Holdings, Inc.’s own seasonal edge from broad market drift.
Reality check
Over the last 5 years, January has closed higher 100% of the time versus 90% across the last 10 years — the pattern is holding.
Figures are the typical (median) January 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
This is a stock you can almost set a calendar by, and January is the anchor — it has closed higher in 9 of 10 Januaries, the steadiest beat on its year.
The strength looks broad-based rather than freakish: its average (+6.4%) and median (+8.0%) sit close together, so no single blow-out year is flattering the figure. That reliability comes with real swings, mind — even January ranges by 12.3% from year to year, so any single year can land far from the average. Better still, that strength is the stock's own and not just a buoyant market — January has outpaced the S&P 500 by +6.6 points on average. Few peers keep such company in January — the typical stock clears it just 53% of the time.
January anchors a run, too: the November-through-January window has been the stock's reliable season. On the other side of the ledger, October has been the soft spot — the only month to average an outright loss (−5.6%), and the edge isn't year-round — the stock has trailed the S&P 500 in October and July. Its roughest month on record was a −26.6% March in 2020 — a reminder of how hard even a seasonal name can fall.
January has now closed higher 5 years running. Reassuringly, the tendency has held its shape: the recent five years still track the years behind them.
For a stock this dependable in January, the sharper question is the rest of the year — outside its strong stretch, the calendar gives far less to lean on.
Short answers on the stock's best month (January), its worst (October), and whether it really trades seasonally.
Yes, to a pronounced degree. Since 2016 its best month (January, +6.4%) has run well ahead of its worst (October, −5.6%) — the heatmap above shows how steady that gap has been year to year.
January has been the strongest, averaging +6.4% and closing higher in 9 of 10 years since 2016.
It's the weakest, averaging −5.6% — historically a soft spot, though it still varies from year to year.
