IFF's stock price tends to increase from early January through early June, followed by a period of decline. The bullish phase starts in early January and peaks around June 7, showing an average gain of +3.8%.

The most significant downward pressure occurs in March and again in late December, specifically on December 31 with an average loss of -3.5%.
2) Buy-the-dip points:
Based on the data, potential buying opportunities arise during the pullback periods in March and again in late December. The most pronounced dip occurs around March 12, suggesting a possible entry point before a potential rebound in April and May. Another buying opportunity presents itself in late December, as the stock tends to decline into the end of the year, setting up for a potential rally starting in January. These pullbacks could be attributed to end-of-year tax loss harvesting or sector-specific seasonal adjustments.
3) Summary:
An investment strategy for IFF could involve taking advantage of its seasonal patterns by buying during the identified dip periods. Specifically, consider establishing a position in late March or late December to capitalize on the historically lower prices. Monitor the stock closely in early June, as this is typically when the upward trend reverses, and consider taking profits before the bearish phase begins.
