We’re halfway through Q1, and February is historically a weak month for stocks.
But here’s the key—seasonal weakness doesn’t usually kick in until the second half of the month. And that’s exactly where we are now.
In other words, if stocks struggle these next few weeks, it wouldn’t be a surprise based on historical standards.
Maybe the market hit a rough patch, or maybe it shrugs off this seasonal trend altogether.
Either way, here’s my focus.
I’ll be watching for the groups that hold up best—the ones that stay strong even as the market chops around.
Because when the broader market wobbles, but certain areas show resilience, that’s the real relative strength signal. And that is where some of the best trading opportunities arise.
