September has been the weakest month of the year. From 1885, the DJIA has been up in 47.4% of Septembers. The month has tended to be down despite the performance in August. The month has also been down in years ending in 3 and in pre-election years. Technology has been especially weak in September. The XLK
\n XLK
\n <\/fbs-ticker> technology index has been up 45.8% of the time for a loss of 2.6%. This month has been the weakest for the NASDAQ
