While creating my newest chart (displaying the daily price change of the S&P 500 back to 1950), I noticed that 8 out of the 22 worst days occurred in October (including the infamous 20% drop in 1987). Fear not! October has 5 out of the 15 best days. Afterall what comes down, must go up.

Countries covered are: United States, Japan, Germany, United Kingdom, France, Italy, Russia, Brazil, India, China. Data sources are United Nations historical data and Goldman Sachs forecasting data.
