Market Comparison Breakdown: DST Spring vs DST Fall
Daylight Saving Time in the United States begins each year on the second Sunday in March, when clocks are set forward by one hour, thereby losing an hour. Clocks are turned back again to standard time on the first Sunday in November as DST ends and we gain an hour. DST is often referred to as “Spring Forward, Fall Backward” because of when these time changes occur.
The question is … How are the markets influenced by Daylight Saving Time when compared between Spring and Fall?
