January Barometer under water below 3756.07 As we enter 2021, the old Wall Street adage of “as goes January, so goes the year” comes to mind as investors start asking about the implications of January performance for the year. Data back to 1928 suggest that January is a reasonably good predictor of the year. A January close above the December SPX close at 3756.07, which is 0.78% above the January 5 close of 3726.86, would mean a bullish January Barometer. A January close below that level would mean a bearish January Barometer. When January is up, the year is up 79.3% of the time with an average SPX return of 13.04% (SPX 4245). When January is down, the SPX tends to be weaker and is up only 45.7% of the time with an average return of -0.97% (SPX 3720). For all years back to 1928, the S&P 500 is up 66.7% of the time with an average return of 7.76% (SPX 4047).
