April 2025 proved to be a volatile month for global financial markets, marked by a notable 10% decline from the previous month's close followed by a recovery rally exceeding 10% from the monthly low to the close. The S&P 500 index experienced a 14% gain over the month despite earlier setbacks linked to escalating trade war tensions, which had caused a peak-to-trough drop of 32%. Market sentiment improved toward the end of April as fears of a prolonged trade war diminished, contributing to a bullish outlook for May. Historical data from 2010 to 2024 indicates a bullish market probability of 64.29% during this period, with an average gain of 13.50% and an annualized return of 367.13%. The maximum recorded gain in similar conditions was 151.43%, while the maximum loss was 38.79%. These figures suggest optimism among investors for continued market gains following April's rebound.
