Researchers have found that some of the biggest price deviations from random walks result from seasonal and temporal patterns. The historical stock prices for Caterpillar, Inc. (CAT) are no exception to this rule. In particular, returns in January significantly exceed those in other months (January effect) and on Mondays stock prices go down more than on any other day. Observers have noted these effects in many different markets for more than half a century, but without succeeding in giving a completely satisfactory explanation for their persistence. Stock Analysisuses most of the anomalies to extract information on future price movements from historical data. The Stocknod stock alertsand stock signalsuse this same concept to identify optimal entry and exit points. But some economists, for example Eugene Fama, argue that most of these patterns occur accidentally, rather than as a result of irrational or inefficient behavior of investors: the huge amount of data available to researchers for analysis allegedly causes the fluctuations.
