The month has brought the best average monthly return going back to 1950.
If history repeats itself, the Dow Jones Industrial Average should have a good April. April has historically been the top month for returns in the 30-stock average, with gains of 1.9% going all the way back to 1950, according to the Stock Trader's Almanac . That performance can be attributed in part to the end of tax season, optimism heading into second-quarter earnings season and the end of the best six-month period of the year . By comparison, the Dow has gained around 0.
April is considered to be seldom dangerous, according to the Almanac, with 2022, as well as 2002, 2004 and 2005, the recent exceptions. Lately, the Dow Industrials have exhibited strength following the tax filing deadline, per the Almanac, which falls on April 18 this year. In April 2020, for instance, at the start of the Covid emergency, the blue-chip average had its best performance in more than 80 years with a gain of 11.1%.
