Eying Seasonal Trends

As you know, I’ve been doing some traditional research over the past week, in order to expand my universe of stocks. I’m only as good as my last trade and my last few have really stunk. Thus far, only a few names strike a cord, like ELLI, BCEI, CADX, AMBA and maybe ERII. I’ve moved over to seasonal factors and was reminded how well ag names do in February, ahead of the planting season. Stocks like MOS, CF and ANDE are of interest to me.

Then I came across the best performing stock for the month of February and was awestruck by the results.

Does anyone know the name and why it tends to explode in Feb? Are there oncology conferences that I need to be made aware of? I only ask because I tend to avoid biotech names, but have recently become interested in a few–thanks to an overzealous doctor that I know.

It’s also worth mentioning that silver does phenomenal in February, with AGQ averaging +14% for the month.
