Every month I publish a seasonality report in The PPT, using its seasonality tools. For the month of September, ULTA was an interesting pick because of its history. This is what ULTA has done in the month of September, over the past 6 years.
Pretty impressive.
“Now what’s the next one?” says the lurch in the reader class section of the website. I’ll get to it straight away, master.
Here is what stands out to me (link to screen for PPT members)
FFIV
CAAS
KNDI
GURE
STMP
LCC
GOOG
DAL
AUDC
BTU
ALGT
HOLI
RJET
COH
GS
In summary, chinese and airline stocks tend to do well. GPS has been up 22 of 25 years in October, for an average return of 4.8%. And KMP has been up 19 of 20 years, for an average return of 4.4%. It’s hard to dismiss these numbers as “mere coincidence.”
The best performing ETFs have been EWM, GXC and TBT, again solidifying the case for Asian stocks.
On the downside, RGLD, RSOL, HSOL, MNKD, GTAT, CSIQ and OWW stand out as miserable performers (here is that screen for PPT members).
SYNM has gone down 13 of the last 14 years, in the month of October, for an average loss of 11.78%.
The worst performing ETFs have been TAN, FXP, DUG and DFJ.

tell me a month in which ULTA has not gone up….
6 months out of 12, ULTA has posted negative returns, historically. September is, and always will be, its best month.
QED
I bring before you sacrifices of my finest lamb & cattle with a bowed head, as I dare not make eye contact with our almighty ruler. What doest ye see in the coming days? Will the peasants revolt against the bearded clam, take their schillings & oxen, and head for the hills? Should we wait for the peasants to retreat then plunder what they’ve left
behind?
Fly, the comments are way down with log ins required. Please reconsider. Don’t you miss the zoo like enviro ?
I’ve been blogging since 2006. I’ve hosted a million comments since and have enjoyed immense popularity. There comes a point in a bloggers “career” when he knows the reader class is vagrant. To that point, I’ve decided that the advice strewn across this glorious domain is not only unnecessary, but no longer required.
iBankCoin runs on win, not comments.
If you are a gentlemen of any standing, YOU WILL REGISTER. Otherwise, you’re just a meat loafer, trying hard to look dumb.
IBC is a gentlemen’s club. With Senor Fly at the top. Proud member.
In regards to $ULTA – I have two words for you: Butter London. If you don’t know it, learn it. It’s literal acetate catnip for women. As far as comments go, bless you, Cousin Fly. I enjoy reading them and don’t miss the douche bags one bit.
I would add CSD to your list of ETF’s.
Kudos re: signing in. I also think your kids might enjoy reading the material on your sight.
Time for a little redneck fishing–
