I know everyone’s been worrying about earnings and rates and the Fed this week — and rightfully so.
But if you zoom out a bit, two of the most reliable tools in your trader toolkit are sector rotation and seasonal patterns.
They don’t give you crystal ball predictions, but they do give you a roadmap — and sometimes that’s all you need to avoid potholes and catch smoother trades.
Let’s start with the calendar.
August and September have a long track record of being weaker months for the S&P 500 — especially in first-year presidential term cycles like we’re in now.
Historically, July runs hot (check), and then we tend to see a cool-off.
That doesn’t mean you run to cash or go net short. It just means you stay more selective — and pick your sectors wisely.
Right now, Tech (XLK) is still at the top of my list. Semiconductors (SMH) have been screaming — see: AMD, AVGO, NVDA — and if seasonality plays out, tech tends to hold up well into August.
XLK is one way to play that strength, and we’ve been leaning on that across several strategies.
Utilities were also on my radar, both seasonally and structurally — but they’ve slipped a few notches in the rankings. Not out of the picture, but not a top-tier pick right now.
Meanwhile, consumer discretionary popped into the mix. That’s more of a speculative play in my book — not something I’m loading up on, but worth keeping an eye on.
And for anyone looking to the short side? Materials might be your best bet. If we get a broad market pullback, this is a sector that could lag hard.
Bottom line: sector rotation and seasonality won’t give you every trade — but they will help you stack odds in your favor.
And in this kind of environment, that edge really adds up.
We’ll keep covering the strongest ones every morning on Opening Playbook.
