Today the S&P 500 extended its daily streak of trading days without a 1% or greater decline to 89. Since 1950, there are only 15 other S&P 500 streaks of this duration or longer. The longest streak was 184 trading days in 1963. The average gain during the past 15 streaks was 12.67%. Compared to S&P 500 streaks lasting 79 trading days or longer this list has five fewer and is showing further improvement in post-streak performance. The chart above is the average performance of these past 15 streaks 30 trading days before the streak ended and 60 trading days after comparing 79 trading day and longer streaks to 89 day and longer streaks. The following table has S&P 500 returns over the next 1-, 3-, 6-months and 1-year after the streak ended.
