Probably that there is more opportunity in fading seasonals nowadays.

 

Doubt it. Made a swing low at end of Aug and bounced about 1/2 of a tight range. Nothing technically significant.

 

Doesn't it usually decline in October?

 

just asking, but how did u derive that conclusion? the past few years the last Q generally ends positive. i wonder if it is starting earlier this year.

 

sep/oct usually do historically... seasonal thing. theres an almanac out there with good statistics.
