Historically, the Shanghai Composite Index has shown no significant seasonal effect in January, with 7 instances of increases and 8 instances of decreases since 2010 [10][12]. - Positive policies and external events may lead to an increase in the Shanghai Composite Index, as seen in January 2012, 2019, and 2023.
