WATCH THE MONTHLY SECOND HALF TREND PATTERN

-- SOURCE: 07-16-18 - "Forget Football: It's The Market That's "A Game Of Two Halves" --

As the US equity market reaches 'half-time' in the month, 2018's history suggests it's time to sell...

Something odd has happened throughout 2018 - the market has run-up in the first half (on average up 1.62%), and fallen in the second half (on average -1.07%).

Visually, it's hard to ignore...

So is July 'different'?

As they say in the beautiful game, "it's a game of two halves."
