Month by month
The stock's clearest edge over the S&P 500 lands in December (+13.0 pts); it has trailed the market most in November (−12.0 pts).
“vs S&P” is Energous Corporation’s average for a month minus the S&P 500’s average for that same month — isolating Energous Corporation’s own seasonal edge from broad market drift.
Reality check
Over the last 5 years, June has closed higher 40% of the time versus 60% across the last 10 years — the pattern is weakening.
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
There's a real but measured seasonal tilt here, toward June — the firmest corner of the calendar, higher in 6 of 10 Junes.
The strength looks broad-based rather than freakish: its average (+2.4%) and median (+1.4%) sit close together, so no single blow-out year is flattering the figure. That reliability comes with real swings, mind — even June ranges by 20.4% 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 — June has outpaced the S&P 500 by +2.1 points on average.
On the other side of the ledger, November has been the soft spot — the weakest of 8 months that average a loss (−9.7%), and the edge isn't year-round — the stock has trailed the S&P 500 in November, October, and August. Its roughest month on record was a −57.8% August in 2023 — a reminder of how hard even a seasonal name can fall.
The pattern has softened of late, June's last five years slipping below its longer-run record.
Treat it as a tendency rather than a rule — seasonality describes the past, not a promise. With returns that swing hard year to year, the signal is best held loosely.
Short answers on the stock's best month (June), its worst (November), and whether it really trades seasonally.
Yes, to a pronounced degree. Since 2016 its best month (June, +2.4%) has run well ahead of its worst (November, −9.7%) — the heatmap above shows how steady that gap has been year to year.
June has been the strongest, averaging +2.4% and closing higher in 6 of 10 years since 2016.
It's the weakest, averaging −9.7% — historically a soft spot, though it still varies from year to year.
