Investor Centre was one of the exhibitors at the Sydney Trading and Investment Expo 2012. One of their presentation pointed out several key strategies. The one listed here is based on the fact there are several time period in the year where the Index price moved in a consistent direction. The tips below is also aimed to be used with Indices, which has no individual company risk.
Easter - Sell then buy shares. Oil opposite. This is affected by the holiday weekends and more shares are sold before people go for holidays.
End of June 30 - buy then sell. At the end of the financial year, people are selling less. Hence there is pressure on the buy side.
RBA Tuesday - sell then buy. Every Tuesday of the month, the RBA makes a decision about interest rate and released at 2:30pm. The fear of the unknown sentiment before this time causes selling of stocks. This is usually followed by a rebound soon after the announcement no matter what the interest rate is.
Dividend Sept - buy then sell. Company dividend period. Many buyers, including big overseas players may buy stock just for the dividends.
