| DAILY ISSUE History Says It’s Time to Drop Tech for Now VIEW IN BROWSER
If you showed up to my big seasonality event this week, thank you! You—and the thousands of others who joined me on Tuesday morning—helped make it one of the most successful events in TradeSmith’s 20-year history. During the event, legendary “quant” investor Louis Navellier and I showed how you can leverage hidden seasonality patterns in the stock market to find the best day to buy—or sell—any stock. We also warned about a major regime shift in the stock market set to begin as soon as next week. Now, Louis and I don’t have a crystal ball. Nobody does. Instead, we rely on cold, hard data… and the incredible pattern-predicting power of TradeSmith’s Seasonality tool. Because we ran tens of thousands of tests a day, drawing on decades of market data, we were able to develop a system that can pinpoint the precise calendar dates when stocks—and even entire stock market indexes—tend to turn. And after scanning that massive catalog, it showed that the S&P 500 is primed to drop in August. It happens year after year—with scary consistency. We even saw it happen in years whose market action was a 90+% match to2025’s… This seasonal pattern has happened in bull markets, bear markets, and everything in between. That mean we can expect a regime change for the stock market. Not a crash, like in 2008… or even a bear market like in 2022… but a bearish seasonal shift you’ll want to be prepared for. Louis and I get into all the details during our event – but time is running out to get prepared. So, make sure to watch the replay while it’s still online. Today, I’ll show you more of how it all works. Then we’ll look at how a “winter” is coming for popular tech stocks. If you’re heavily exposed to these stocks, expect months of subpar returns ahead. And if you’re thinking of buying Apple Inc. (AAPL), Tesla Inc. (TSLA), Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) — or any of the other giant AI stocks — history says it’s best off buying until the end of the year. | Recommended Link | | | | Futurist Eric Fry has already led his readers to big gains on Amazon stock. But now he says, it’s time to kick that name to the curb and replace it with a company that’s more like “buying Amazon in 2005.” In his brand-new presentation, Eric shows why this company could become 700% more profitable in under 2 years.

It also happens every year. We get weekly and monthly trends — year in, year out — no matter what’s happening in the world. Let me be clear… It takes a lot of data to identify these trends in stocks. But when you see market seasonality in action, it can blow you away. I was certainly surprised last fall when one of my programmers at TradeSmith emailed me with a simple request: Watch Nvidia’s stock on October 24. He’d been doing some historical research. It showed that, starting that day, Nvidia had risen an average of 7.8% over the next 15 days. This pattern had occurred 100% of the time over the past 15 years. I didn’t know of any obvious catalyst for that day. No scheduled company announcement… Fed meetings… product demos. Nothing. But sure enough, on October 24, 2024, Nvidia went up as my programmer had projected. In line with its seasonal pattern, over the next 15 days it rose 5.1%. Now, I’m a data scientist. So, I sat down with that programmer to discuss the results. And he walked me through the data. Clear as day, for the past 15 years, Nvidia shot up during that 15-day time span every year. 
That stretches back to 2009. Bitcoin (BTC) had just debuted, and the idea of an AI industry was still in the realm of science fiction. Back then, Nvidia was known for making graphics cards for video games and media editors. But still, it kept rising in late October, regardless of news or attention… year after year. Now, a 5.1% gain isn’t much. But if you could repeat that gain every 15 trading days, using consistent historical patterns like we saw with NVDA, that’s the same as making 130% a year. It inspired us to develop a system — and a groundbreaking new trading strategy — to do just that. By combining these signals with the power of options, we’ve shown TradeSmith folks who tried that system the chance to make gains of… - 112% on Hasbro Inc. (HAS) calls in 10 days
- 107% on Aon PLC (AON) calls in 23 days
- 124% on Booking Holdings Inc. (BKNG) calls in 15 days
- 180% on Analog Devices Inc. (ADI) calls in 14 days
- 248% on Intuit Inc. (INTU) calls in 15 days
And Nvidia isn’t the only popular tech stock that goes through seasonal shifts like this. Tech’s Bullish Seasonality Window Is Closing Soon Take crypto-friendly payments processor Block Inc. (XYZ), formerly known as Square. Between June 27 and July 22, it was in a “Green Zone” — a period of strong bullish seasonality — that has delivered profits every year for Block’s 10-year history. And its shares gained 19% over that time this year: 
As you can see, there’s no clear seasonal trend for this stock until the start of September — and the next trend coming is bearish. We don’t get another Green Zone for Block until the end of October. Another popular tech stock I’ve been keeping an eye on is Google parent Alphabet Inc. (GOOG). It just went through another big seasonality Green Zone — with a 13% return. 
This is the 17th straight year GOOG has gone up from May 24 to July 23. I expect this stock to cool off over the next few months before rising late in the fourth quarter. It’s a similar prospect for the entire tech sector. This next chart is of the Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (QQQ). It’s packed with America’s biggest tech stocks — including Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN), Microsoft, Nvidia, Apple, and Tesla. And as you can see in this next chart, QQQ just exited a Seasonality Green Zone on July 20 that saw it rise 2.3% — very close to its 2.4% average return. 
Its next bullish seasonality window doesn’t get underway until October 24. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t opportunities to profit as the summer doldrums hit. Big Gains in Lesser-Known Stocks As I covered today, our system is signaling a broader bearish turn beginning next week. But while the S&P 500 and the giant tech stocks in QQQ may struggle, other lesser-known stocks are setting up for big gains. And our seasonality trading tool allows you to zero in on those bullish opportunities despite a weakening overall market. Louis and I got into all the details during Tuesday’s event. If you weren’t able to attend, you can check out a free replay right here. And remember to tread carefully in August. If the seasonal patterns hold, stocks will start to stumble soon. All the best,

CEO, TradeSmith P.S. Louis has been making models that beat the market since he was a student in the 1970s, back when he was working on mainframe computers the size of a room. That’s why he’s called the “King of Quants,” and it’s why The New York Times referred to him as an “icon among growth investors.” Over the years, his data-driven strategies have pinpointed 18 recommendations that returned 10,000% — and 675 others that doubled — including an early Nvidia recommendation in 2019. And Louis says, TradeSmith’s Seasonality tool is “unlike anything I’ve encountered in my 50-year career.” It’s easier to get a sense of how powerful this tool is when you see it in action. Here’s that link again to watch the replay – and to see what this game-changing tool can do. |
