"May sell" curse will come true? After the sharp rise, U.S. stocks may face a challenging June.
According to the CITIC Financial APP, the US stock market rebounded strongly in May, with the S&P 500 index rising by 6.2%, the largest single-month increase since 1990, mainly due to the temporary suspension of trade tariffs and the push from technology stocks. However, analysts warn that June has historically shown weak performance (with an average increase of only 0.2% over the past 30 years), combined with risks of a trade war, uncertainty in Federal Reserve policy, and the "Triple Witching Hour" at the end of the quarter (options expiration, asset rebalancing), the market may face a correction. Historical data shows that June tends to perform poorly after election years, and the seasonal pattern of "selling in May" suggests a weak market in the summer.
