Abstract: An $n$-dimensional manifold $M$ is said to be rationally $4$-periodic if there is an element $ein{H}^4(M;mathbbQ)$ with the property that cupping with $e$, $cdotcupe:H^{a}st(M;mathbbQ)ightarrow{H}^{ast+4}(M;mathbbQ)$ is injective for $0<astleqdimM-4$ and surjective when $0leqast<dimM-4$. We classify all compact simply connected biquotients which are rationally $4$-periodic. In addition, we show that if a simply connected rationally elliptic CW-complex $X$ of dimension at least $6$ is rationally $4$-periodic, then the cohomology ring is either singly generated, or $X$ is rationally homotopy equivalent to $S^{2}imesmathbbH{P}^n$, $S^{3}imesmathbbH{P}^n$, or $S^{3}imes{S}^3$.
