The DJIA Index moved incongruently to historical standards in the post election year of 1989, which uncharacteristically demonstrated bullish expressions. However, the balance of this presidential election cycle was congruent to historical standards with the market finding bottom in the mid-term election year and providing for bullish expressions in the pre-election year and election year..

The market did a poor job anticipating the 1990 recession, but again made up for its tardiness with a steep and quick drop. The recession was short, but was fairly steep. Lingering unemployment and corporate downsizing pushed George H. W. Bush out of the Whitehouse from record high popularity ratings only a few months earlier.

Americans vote their pocket books on election day. If empty, the incumbent is fired. The collapse of communism, green mailing, and a rise in capitalistic Darwinian influences paved the path to unprecedented bull market cycles. Keep in mind, no trading model can outperform buy and hold during strong and lasting bull markets. Again, bears eventually come along and apply destructive results to those that buy and hold.

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.
