January Has Been 1 of the Worst Months for the S&P 500 Over the Last 20 Years. Here Are 3 Stocks to Buy Anyway.: https://g.foolcdn.com/editorial/images/759884/young-woman-looking-at-laptop.jpg

The first is last -- when we're talking about the calendar and the S&P 500. Since 2004, the major index has risen only half of the time during the first month of the year. That's a lower rate than any other month.

Granted, the average returns for the S&P 500 during June and September have been lower than those in January. Still, it's indisputable that January has been one of the worst months for the S&P 500 over the last 20 years.

Should investors stay on the sidelines? Nope. Here are three stocks to buy anyway.
