From early January, the stock begins to climb steadily, reaching double-digit percentage gains by February, peaking around February 16 at +12.4%. After the February peak, the stock consolidates through the spring and summer before resuming its upward trajectory in the fall, culminating in substantial gains by December 15, reaching +45.3%.

Another pullback period occurs in late March and early April as the stock pulls back from its February highs. Furthermore, May also presents a possible dip-buying opportunity as the stock consolidates. These pullbacks could be attributed to profit-taking after the initial rallies, presenting chances to enter before the stock resumes its upward trend later in the year.

Consider adding to positions during the May consolidation period. The strongest gains are typically realized by holding through December, specifically targeting December 15 and December 31, before potentially re-evaluating the position for the following year's cycle.
