1) Overview:
Williams-Sonoma exhibits a strong bullish trend throughout the year, starting with gains in January and accelerating into the summer. The stock tends to rally significantly from March 18 (+5.2%) through August 8 (+17.0%). After peaking in August, the stock consolidates at high levels before experiencing a final surge into the holiday season, with gains reaching +29.8% by December 4. The bullish momentum then begins to wane, ending the year at +26.1% on December 31.
2) Buy-the-dip points:
Potential buying opportunities arise during pullback periods. One such period appears in early March, specifically around March 12 (+0.6%), offering a chance to enter before the significant rally that starts mid-March. Another potential entry point is in mid-May, around May 22 (+2.4%), after a slight dip from the highs of early May. Finally, while the overall trend is bullish in December, there are minor pullbacks after December 4 (+29.8%) that could present short-term buying opportunities.
3) Summary:
A seasonal investment strategy for Williams-Sonoma could involve accumulating shares during the pullback in early March to capitalize on the subsequent spring and summer rally. Holding through the fall and into the holiday season appears advantageous, with a possible exit strategy near the end of December to capture the gains from the holiday surge. However, investors should be aware of the potential for increased volatility and minor pullbacks even during seasonally strong periods.
