I just came across an old book that I forgot that I even had. It's
"Stan Weinstein's Secrets for Profiting in Bull and Bear
Markets".(Whatever happened to him?) In it, there's a chart attributed
to Yale Hirsch's "Don't sell Stocks on Monday" (A book? I don't know.)
The chart is as follows:
Market performance each day of the week based on the number of times
that the S&P closed higher than the previous day from June '52 to June
'85
Mon - 43.0%
Tues - 51.3%
Wed - 55.6%
Thurs - 52.6%
Fri - 58.0%
This sort of supports your strategy. I am not saying that this is
true. I didn't do the research and am not sure who did. Just for
interest.
