Here is a technical analysis tidbit from Carter Worth of Sterne Agee on what has happened in the past week or so of each year:

Going back to 1928, when the S&P 500 was formed, the average 5-day return for all 5-day periods is 14 bps (basis points), with a standard deviation of 264 bps. Taking only the last 5 days of the year, the average return is 119 bps, with a standard deviation of 187 bps. So there is not only a higher-than-average return during the last 5 days, but there is less variability around the average.
