The DJIA Index moved congruently to historical standards in the post election year of 1981, which characteristically demonstrated bearish expressions. The balance of the years in this presidential election cycle were congruent with historical standards. The mid-term election year found a market bottom with a bullish expression in the pre-election year. However, the election year of 1984 was uncharacteristically bearish.

Supply side economics and exposure to waste in government put an end to the sixteen year secular bear market. The market did not initially acknowledge Reagan's tax cuts, because the government had no plan to reduce spending. However, the combination of the events in the early 1980's ignited the secular bull market that lasted until 2000.

Again, the market identified the 1981 recession about six months before it occurred with the normal predecessor bear market.

As you can see, bullish seasonality (pink) is incongruent to historical standards during the bearish market periods and bearish seasonality (white) is also incongruent to historical standards during bullish periods.
