May Gains: Why You Shouldn't Sell Stocks

from The Daily News Now! Business

Sell in May and go away might not be the best strategy for the S&P 500, as it has historically seen gains in May and June. Over the past decade, it averaged 1.5% in May and 1.9% in June. The last five Mays have all been positive, with gains ranging from 0.01% to 6.2%.
