Here are some Christmas Week Statistics going back to 1896 involving the Dow. As you can see there is a slight upward bias the 3 trading days prior to Christmas with the day before Christmas having the highest probability to the upside. Meanwhile the day after Christmas has a slight downward bias. However as you can see just because its Christmas Week doesn't mean the market has to move higher.
Dow Christmas Week Performance 1896-2007
| 3 Days | 2 Days | Day | Day | |
