The January effect, of course. The theory is that investors sell stocks in December for tax purposes and then buy them back in January, causing persistent seasonal outperformance in the month of January. The problem, of course, is that there's no free lunch in an efficient market and that phenomenon would be arbitraged away over time. If that kind of thing interests you, particularly the dangers associated with buying into behavioral pitfalls of this sort, there are numerous more examples in the CFA curriculum that we could expound on.

RSBR - Thanks for posting the note on the MB. I'm interested. MBA grad with 3 years of venture capital experience. Post VC helped start a technology company that's raised about $10M in capital. I run the finance side with some product and strategy thown in the mix. Primary responsibilities are everything from running the finance back office, fundraising from VCs and PE firms, building a technology product from scratch, and scaling a business.
Looking forward to contributing.

RSBR could you elaborate on what CFA is and what related fields there are?
