Although a scientist by profession, Dr. Raj Chadha has been interested in Vedic Astrology since childhood. He has been practicing and advising his friends and family for more than 40 years. He also authored a book, “ A Practical Guide to Hindu Astrology”. He has done an extensive research to understand the relationship between the transit of planets and stock price movements. |
Some people use fundamental analysis of the companies to invest in their shares. Other people use technical analysis to understand the behavior of the masses toward stock prices. Both these methods have their advantages, yet they fail to see the uncertainties of future events. Astrological analysis of a stock chart can provide valuable insights about a stock’s future performance and should be used in conjunction with fundamental and technical analysis.
To prepare a stock’s astrological chart, I use IPO’s first-trade-day as the stock-chart’s birthday and the exchange’s opening time where it trades as the time of birth of the stock. This time should be corrected for the company’s headquarters, which is used as the place of birth of the chart.
A significant part of the price movement of a stock comes from the direction of the stock market. I used to use a birth chart of the USA to determine the direction of the US stock market. But over time, I have found that the opening time chart of the New York Stock Exchange gives better results for this purpose. The day is May 17, 1792, the time is 10:30 AM (local time), and the place is New York, NY.
Because of the skepticism of the general American people about astrology, all the valuable information given on this site is free. I sincerely intend to prove these doubters that astrology works in the hands of an experienced astrologer. Nature has provided us with a tool in the form of planetary motion, and we should utilize it and not ignore it.

Ten Best Stocks for 2026
It is that time of the year when I need to replace stocks selected for 2025. Let us first see how those stocks fared. Needless to say, both lists outperformed the S&P 500 by a reasonable margin. However, that margin was not as significant as it was for the ten best for 2024. Here are the exact numbers:
I continue to use the method that involves IPO-day astrology charts of these stocks. I started with 200 charts and narrowed them down to 20 that were running the periods of strong planets. The dasha system I use is a 60-year cycle known as Shashti-Hayini Dasha, propounded by Vedic Seer Parashara. To determine the strength of planets, I use the Vedic system of Shadbala, again recommended by the Sage Parashara. However, I also give preference to planets that have a similar longitude to that of the rising sign. I use the software Kala-2023 by Ernst Willhelm to calculate both dashas and the strengths of the planets.
Using the same method, I have selected 10 stocks for 2026 after analyzing 200 charts individually. I hope these stocks will perform better, despite my thinking the S&P 500 may not gain much in 2026. Here is the detail.
Applovian Corp. (APP). It was a star performer in 2024. I did not include it in 2025, because I thought it was too expensive. But the superior astrological chart compelled me to include this one again. It is undergoing a major Shashti Highini period of exalted Sun. The subperiod is of Mercury, which is conjunct the Sun in the first house.
Canadian Solar Inc. (CSIQ). It has been a disappointment to me for many years. I hope this stock shines this year. Its Shashti-hayini period is that of Merc/Venus. They conjunct each other and make a trine aspect with the Moon in Cancer and retrograde Uranus in Pisces.
DLocal Limited (DLO). Dlocal is a new stock on this list. It just started a major period of Jupiter, which generally gives good results. Jupiter aspects another benefic planet, Venus, present in the first house. I hope this setup produces good performance in 2026 and beyond.
Eos Energy Enterprise (EOSE). Eos is an energy stock. Energy companies are of great interest these days due to the growing demand for energy to power artificial intelligence. Its Shashti-Hayini period is that of Saturn/Jupiter. Both planets are conjunct in the second house. Two more planets, Mars and Venus, are also powerful in the chart. I am therefore hopeful that this stock can deliver exceptional results in 2026.
Hims & Hers Health, Inc. (HIMS). It was one of the 2025 stocks and delivered only mediocre results. However, I am continuing with this stock again. It began the Jup/Sun period in November 2025. Jupiter and the Sun make an angle of 90 degrees. Such a setup presents challenges at the beginning but yields positive results once those challenges are overcome.
Cloudflare, Inc. (NET). The running period of this stock is Jup/Sun. Jupiter is very strong in the astrology chart, although it is also making a square aspect with many planets, including the sub-period planet, the Sun. It is therefore quite likely to outperform its peers in 2026 after some challenging times.
Nike, Inc. (NKE). This stock has been under pressure lately. It is pretty likely to deliver better gains this year. The major period of the Shashti-Hayini scheme began in November 2025. Mars is exalted in the second house of the IPO day chart and makes many aspects with other planets. Mars is an aggressive planet, which can result in violent moves. One may therefore trade around it for better results.
Netflix, Inc. (NFLX). I found out that I was using the wrong chart for PYPL. So I have to replace it. My new choice is Netflix. It is about to end the major period of Rahu and begin the Shashti Hayini period of Jupiter. Jupiter is very strong in its chart. So I expect good performance from MFLX for some time to come.
Snowflake Inc. (SNOW). This is another stock from the 2025 list that I want to continue with. It has done well in 2025. The major period of Mercury begins in March 2026, which can lead to even better performance. I therefore want to continue with this software company.
Tesla Inc. (TSLA). Tesla was also included on the 2025 stock list. This stock has not gained much in 2025. But the current period of strong, well-aspected Jupiter compels me to continue including it on this list. I hope a year-long consolidation helps it to advance higher in 2026.
My second or alternate list contains more speculative names.
AMD, BABA, BMRN, LMT, RKLB, S, SOFI, TLN, VRT, and XPEV.
Please note: These lists were uploaded on Dec 16, 2025.
As usual, please note that I do not recommend anybody to buy or sell any of the stocks based on my Astrological ideas. Viewers should do their own research and diligence.
