Yale Hirsch

If I have seen further, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.

—Sir Isaac Newton

Yale has been a giant to us all. We have proudly stood on his shoulders, magically ridden his coattails, and humbly attempted to build upon his genius. He created this masterpiece 50 years ago and its longevity is his legacy. His iconic thinking and thought leadership will live forever. At 92 and still rocking, he continues to test our intelligence, integrity, imagination, and mettle. Mensch, mentor, enduring source of inspiration, and loving father, thank you for teaching us to strive for excellence with a keen attention to detail and a nose for behavioral changes in finance, markets, economics, and sociology—not to mention a zest for wit.

INTRODUCTION TO THE FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY EDITION

We are pleased, proud, humbled, and amazed to introduce the Fiftieth Anniversary Edition of the Stock Trader's Almanac. The Almanac provides you with the necessary tools to invest successfully in the twenty-first century.

J. P. Morgan's classic retort, “Stocks will fluctuate,” is often quoted with a wink-of-the-eye implication that the only prediction one can make about the stock market is that it will go up, down, or sideways. Many investors agree that no one ever really knows which way the market will move. Nothing could be further from the truth.

We discovered that while stocks do indeed fluctuate, they do so in well-defined, often predictable patterns. These patterns recur too frequently to be the result of chance or coincidence. How else do we explain that since 1950 all the gains in the market were made during November through April, compared to a loss May through October? (See page 52.)

The Almanac is a practical investment tool. It alerts you to those little-known market patterns and tendencies on which shrewd professionals enhance profit potential. You will be able to forecast market trends with accuracy and confidence when you use the Almanac to help you understand:

How our presidential elections affect the economy and the stock market—just as the moon affects the tides. Many investors have made fortunes following the political cycle. You can be sure that money managers who control billions of dollars are also political cycle watchers. Astute people do not ignore a pattern that has been working effectively throughout most of our economic history.

How the passage of the Twentieth Amendment to the Constitution fathered the January Barometer. This barometer has an outstanding record for predicting the general course of the stock market each year, with only eight major errors since 1950, for an 87.7% accuracy ratio. (See page 16.)

Why there is a significant market bias at certain times of the day, week, month, and year.

Even if you are an investor who pays scant attention to cycles, indicators, and patterns, your investment survival could hinge on your interpretation of one of the recurring patterns found within these pages. One of the most intriguing and important patterns is the symbiotic relationship between Washington and Wall Street. Aside from the potential profitability in seasonal patterns, there's the pure joy of seeing the market very often do just what you expected.
