Weekly & Daily Forecast

The S&P500 lost 125 points last week. My forecasts have not been working lately. I will try to work out the errors. 

Here is the expected breakdown for the week of  November 18, 2024, to November 22, 2024. 

A new monthly solar return chart is applicable from November 18 and will stay effective until December 17. The month lord is Mercury, which occupies the 5th house in the sign Sagittarius. Mercury gets the aspect of Jupiter. This setup should give good results. Mars occupies the first house in the sign Leo and makes a trine aspect with Rahu. This is also a desirable setup. However, three planets occupy the malefic houses. Moon occupies the 12th, Venus the sixth, and Saturn the eighth house. Saturn aspects Mercury and makes a square aspect with Jupiter. It can, therefore, only give inauspicious results. Moon gets the aspect of Venus. This is a positive feature. The Sun and retrograde Uranus are in opposite houses. Combining all of the above, I see both positive and negative features. This month, therefore, looks only neutral, maybe slightly positive to me.

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Nov 18-Nov 19 is Rahu, which occupies the ninth house in the sign Aries. Rahu makes square aspects with Venus in the sixth house and Moon in the twelfth house. Consequently, the market may be volatile but unable to find any direction during these days.

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Nov 20 – Nov 23 is Jupiter. Jupiter rules the fifth house and occupies the eleventh house in the Gemini sign.  Jupiter has a square aspect with Saturn and an opposite aspect with Mercury. This setup may be regarded as neutral. As a result, the market may remain flat during this period.

Transits during this week:  Retrograde Jupiter remains in Gemini, causing volatility. Retrograde Uranus continues to transit through Taurus this week. Rahu is transiting in Aries and Ketu in Libra. The Sun is advancing in Scorpio this week, while Mercury moved into Sagittarius on November 03. Mercury thus exchanges signs with Jupiter. Venus transits in Capricorn and Mars in Leo. Mars now makes a trine angle with Rahu. Saturn is no longer retrograde. Now, only Jupiter, Neptune, and Uranus remain retrograde.  Moon transits Cancer and Leo. The tithis of the Moon correspond to the third quarter, which is not very helpful for the market.

 Combining the transit and CVD techniques, I have estimated the stock market’s daily behavior to be the following. 

Monday: Slightly higher; Tuesday: Slightly higher;   Wednesday: Flat;   Thursday: Flat;   Friday: Slightly higher. 

Overall, the S&P500 may go Slightly higher this week.

The S&P500 gained 267 points last week. My forecast last week needed to be revised. I incorrectly interpreted Mars trine Mars and Jupiter R opposite Venus. Both aspects are highly favorable and not obstructive. 

Here is the expected breakdown for the week of  November 11, 2024, to November 15, 2024. 

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Nov 10 is Ketu, which occupies the 3rd house in the sign Libra. Ketu is a malefic planet but gets the aspect of beneficial Jupiter. Consequently, the market may go slightly lower on this day. Since the market is closed, it is non-consequential.

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Nov 12 – Nov 16 is Venus. Venus rules the third house and occupies the fifth house in the Sagittarius sign.  Venus makes a trine aspect with Rahu and an opposite aspect with Moon. This setup may be regarded as positive. As a result, the market may go slightly higher during this period.

Transits during this week:  Jupiter has now turned retrograde since October 08. Uranus continues to transit through Taurus this week and has also been retrograded. Rahu is transiting in Aries and Ketu in Libra. The Sun continues to transit through Scorpio this week, while Mercury moved into Sagittarius on November 03. Mercury thus exchanges signs with Jupiter. Venus moves into Capricorn on November 11, which is a harmonious sign for Venus. Retrogradation of Saturn ends on November 15. Now, only Jupiter, Neptune, and Uranus remain retrograde. Mars moved into Leo on November 05, and it continues to make a trine aspect with Mercury. Moon transits Pisces, Aries, and Taurus. The tithis of the Moon correspond to the second quarter, which is also helpful for the market.

 Combining the transit and CVD techniques, I have estimated the stock market’s daily behavior to be the following. 

Monday: Slightly higher; Tuesday: Slightly higher;   Wednesday: Flat;   Thursday: Slightly higher;   Friday: Flat. 

Overall, the S&P500 may go Higher this week.

The S&P500 lost 80 points last week. I was expecting a flat/slightly higher market. Uncertainty about the U.S. presidential election and earnings week hit the market more severely, especially on Thursday. 

Here is the expected breakdown for the week of  November 05, 2024, to November 08, 2024. 

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Nov 01 – Nov 05 is Saturn, which rules the 7th house and occupies the 8th house. Saturn makes a square aspect with Jupiter in the 11th house and a trine aspect with Mercury in the fourth house. Consequently, the market may go slightly lower during these days. 

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Nov 06 – Nov 10 is Mercury. Mercury rules the second house and occupies the fourth house in the Scorpio sign.  Mercury makes a trine aspect with Saturn. This setup may be regarded as slightly positive. As a result, the market may go slightly higher during this period.

Transits during this week:  Jupiter has now turned retrograde on October 08. Uranus continues to transit through Taurus this week and has also been retrograded. Rahu is transiting in Aries and Ketu in Libra. The Sun continues to transit through Scorpio this week, while Mercury moves into Sagittarius on November 03. Venus has been transiting in Sagittarius since October 18, which is not a very harmonious sign for Venus. It also makes a square aspect with retrograde Neptune in Pisces. Retrogradation of four planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus, is not a welcome feature. Mars moves into Leo on November 05, but it continues to make a trine aspect with Mercury. Moon transits Sagittarius, Capricorn, and Aquarius. The tithis of the Moon correspond to the first quarter, which is not helpful for the market.

 Combining the transit and CVD techniques, I have estimated the stock market’s daily behavior to be the following. 

Monday: Slightly lower; Tuesday: Slightly lower;   Wednesday: Flat;   Thursday: Lower;   Friday: Lower. 

Overall, the S&P500 may go Lower this week.

The S&P500 lost 56 points last week. I was expecting a flat/slightly higher market. I should have considered and included a technical correction after six continuous higher weeks.  

Here is the expected breakdown for the week of  October 28, 2024, to November 01, 2024. 

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Oct 28 – Oct 31 is Jupiter. Moon rules the 5th house and occupies the 11th house in the Gemini sign.  This setup may be regarded as positive. However, Jupiter makes a square aspect with retrograde Saturn and retrograde Neptune. It also aspects the Sun in the third house. As a result, the market may go slightly higher during this period.

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Nov 01 – Nov 05 is Saturn, which rules the 7th house and occupies the 8th house. Saturn makes a square aspect with Jupiter in the 11th house and a trine aspect with Mercury in the fourth house. Consequently, the market may go slightly lower during these days. 

Transits during this week:  Jupiter has now turned retrograde on October 08. Uranus continues to transit through Taurus this week and has also been retrograded. Rahu is transiting in Aries and Ketu in Libra. The Sun and Mercury continue to transit through Scorpio this week. Venus has been transiting in Sagittarius since October 18, which is not a very harmonious sign for Venus. Saturn and Neptune are well established in Pisces. However, both have turned retrograde now. Retrogradation of four planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus, is not a welcome feature. Mars remains in Cancer but will move into Leo next week. It is now making a grand trine with Mercury and retrograde Neptune, which is quite a favorable setup. Moon transits Virgo, Libra, and Scorpio, making trine aspects with Jupiter and Mars. The tithis of the Moon correspond to the fourth quarter, which can also help the market.

 Combining the transit and CVD techniques, I have estimated the stock market’s daily behavior to be the following. 

Monday: Slightly lower; Tuesday: Flat;   Wednesday: Slightly higher;   Thursday: Slightly higher;   Friday: Slightly higher. 

Overall, the S&P500 may go Slightly higher this week.

The S&P500 gained 49 points last week. I was also expecting a flat/slightly higher market. The daily forecast could have been better. 

Here is the expected breakdown for the week of  October 21, 2024, to October 25, 2024. 

A new monthly solar return chart is applicable from October 20 and will stay effective until November 17. The month lord is Jupiter, which occupies the 11th house in the sign Gemini along with the Moon. Jupiter gives good results in this house. It makes trine aspects with the Sun in the third house. As a result, it may give highly desirable results. Mars occupies the twelfth house in the sign Cancer, which is not a desirable setup. However, it makes trine aspects with Neptune and a square aspect with the fallen Sun in the third house. It can, therefore, only be regarded as slightly negative. Saturn is retrograde and occupies the eighth house. It can, therefore, only give inauspicious results. Moon occupies the eleventh house in the sign Gemini and gets the aspect of Venus in the fifth house. This is a positive feature. Combining all of the above, I see positive features dominating negative features. This month, therefore, looks only good to me.

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Oct 20 – Oct 21 is the Moon. Moon rules the 12th house and occupies the 11th house in the Gemini sign.  This setup may be regarded as positive. However, the Moon gets the aspect of Venus. Both planets are beneficial planets. As a result, the market may go higher during this period.

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Oct 22 – Oct 23 is Mars, which rules the 9th house and occupies the 12th house. Mars is fallen and makes a square aspect with the fallen Sun in the third house. It also makes a trine aspect with Neptune. Consequently, the market may go slightly lower during these days. 

The next CVD planet is Rahu, and it acts from Oct 20 – Oct 21. Rahu occupies the 9th house in the Aries sign.  It makes trine aspects with Venus and sextile aspects with the Moon in the eleventh house. Both Moon and Venus are benefic planets. As a result, the market may go higher during this period.

Transits during this week:  Jupiter has now turned retrograde on October 08. Uranus continues to transit through Taurus this week and has also been retrograded. Rahu is transiting in Aries and Ketu in Libra. The Sun will advance into Scorpio this week. Venus has been transiting in Sagittarius since October 18, which is not a very harmonious sign for Venus. Mercury has turned direct and moved into Scorpio since Oct 14. Saturn and Neptune are well established in Pisces. However, both have turned retrograde now. Retrogradation of four planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus, is not a welcome feature. Mars remains in Cancer, the sign of its fall. It is now making trine aspects with Mercury and retrograde Neptune. Moon transits Gemini, Cancer, and Leo, making contact with Jupiter and Mars. However, a grand trine between Mercury, Saturn, and Moon can help the market.

 Combining the transit and CVD techniques, I have estimated the stock market’s daily behavior to be the following. 

Monday: Slightly higher; Tuesday: Slightly higher;   Wednesday: Slightly higher;   Thursday: Flat;   Friday: Flat. 

Overall, the S&P500 may go Slightly higher this week.

The S&P500 gained 64 points last week. I was also expecting a slightly higher market. The daily forecast could have been better. Because the stock market is governed by news, the daily forecast can always be off by a day or two.  

Here is the expected breakdown for the week of  October 14, 2024, to October 18, 2024. 

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Oct 11 – Oct 15 is the Saturn. Saturn rules the 2nd house and occupies the 3rd house in Pisces sign.  It is retrograde, and it has an opposition aspect to Mercury. Both the planets are friends. As a result, the market may go slightly lower or go sideways during this period.

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Oct 16 – Oct 19 is Mercury, which rules the 9th house and occupies the 9th house. Retrograde Saturn aspects it from the third house, and Jupiter makes a square aspect from the sixth house. Mercury in such a setup becomes a benefit planet. Consequently, the market may go slightly higher during these days.

Transits during this week:  Jupiter has now turned retrograde on October 08. Uranus continues to transit through Taurus this week and has also been retrograded. Rahu is transiting in Aries and Ketu in Libra. The Sun advances in Libra, whereas Venus will move into Sagittarius on October 18. Mercury has turned direct and moves into Scorpio on Oct 14. Saturn and Neptune are well established in Pisces. However, both have turned retrograde now. Retrogradation of four planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus, is not a welcome feature. Mars remains in Cancer, the sign of its fall. It is now making trine aspects with Venus. Fallen Mars also makes square with the fallen Sun. There are not many positive features except Jupiter’s aspect on the Sun. However, Mars makes trine aspects with Venus and Moon during the week. 

 Combining the transit and CVD techniques, I have estimated the stock market’s daily behavior to be the following. 

Monday: Slightly lower; Tuesday: Slightly higher;   Wednesday: Flat;   Thursday: Slightly higher;   Friday: Slightly lower. 

Overall, the S&P500 may go Slightly higher or remain flat this week.

The S&P500 gained only 13 points last week. I was expecting more than that. How can I overlook the weakness of Mars? 

Here is the expected breakdown for the week of  October 07, 2024, to October 11, 2024. 

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Oct 07 – Oct 11 is Jupiter, which rules the 12th house and occupies the 6th house. It makes a square aspect with Saturn and Mercury. Jupiter also makes a trine aspect with Venus. Consequently, the market may go slightly higher during these days.

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Oct 11 – Oct 15 is the Saturn. Saturn rules the 2nd house and occupies the 3rd house in Pisces sign.  It is retrograde, and it has an opposition aspect to Mercury. Both the planets are friends. As a result, the market may go slightly lower or go sideways during this period.

Transits during this week:  Jupiter is advancing in the sign Gemini, but it will turn retrograde on October 08. Uranus continues to transit through Taurus this week and has also been retrograded. Rahu is transiting in Aries and Ketu in Libra. The Sun advances in Libra, whereas Venus has now moved into Scorpio. Mercury has turned direct and has crossed the Sun in the sign Libra. Saturn and Neptune are well established in Pisces. However, both have turned retrograde now. Retrograde Saturn is not a welcome feature. Mars remains in Cancer, the sign of its fall. It is now also making trine aspects with Venus. Fallen Mars also makes square with the fallen Sun. There are not many positive features except Jupiter’s aspect on Mercury.

 Combining the transit and CVD techniques, I have estimated the stock market’s daily behavior to be the following. 

Monday: Slightly lower; Tuesday: Lower;   Wednesday: Slightly higher;   Thursday: Slightly higher;   Friday: Slightly higher. 

Overall, the S&P500 may go Slightly higher or remain flat this week.

The S&P500 gained 36 points last week. I was also expecting a higher market. Even the daily forecast worked out well.

Here is the expected breakdown for the week of  September 30, 2024, to October 04, 2024. 

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Sept 29 – Sept 30 is the Moon. Moon rules the seventh house and occupies the fourth house in the sign Aries.  It makes an opposition aspect with Venus. Both the planets are benefic planets. As a result, the market may go higher during this period.

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Octo 01 is Mars, which rules the fifth house and occupies the seventh house. It makes a square aspect with Rahu and Ketu. Mars is fallen as it occupies the sign of Cancer. Consequently, the market may go lower on this day.

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Oct 02 – Oct 07 is the Rahu. Rahu occupies the fourth house in the sign Aries.  It makes a square aspect with Mars. Rahu is a volatile planet. As a result, the market may go sideways during this period.

Transits during this week:  Jupiter is advancing in the sign Gemini, while Uranus continues to transit through Taurus this week, although it has turned retrograde now. Rahu is transiting in Aries and Ketu in Libra. The Sun advances in Libra, whereas Venus has now moved into Scorpio. Mercury has turned direct and has joined the Sun in the sign Libra. Saturn and Neptune are well established in Pisces. However, both have turned retrograde now. Retrograde Saturn is not a welcome feature. Mars remains in Cancer, the sign of its fall. It is now also making trine aspects with Venus and Saturn. This grand trine between Venus, Mars, and Saturn can benefit the stock market.

 Combining the transit and CVD techniques, I have estimated the stock market’s daily behavior to be the following. 

Monday: Slightly lower; Tuesday: Higher;   Wednesday: Slightly higher;   Thursday: Higher;   Friday: Higher. 

Overall, the S&P500 may go Higher this week.

The S&P500 gained 76 points last week. I was also expecting a higher market. Even the daily forecast worked out well.

Here is the expected breakdown for the week of  September 23, 2024, to September 27, 2024. 

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Sept 22 – Sept 26 is Venus. Venus rules the tenth house and occupies the tenth house.  It makes a trine aspect with Jupiter and an opposition aspect with the Moon. Consequently, the market may go higher during this period.

The compressed Vimshottri dasha planet for  Sept 27 is the Sun, which rules the eighth house and occupies the ninth house. It makes a trine aspect with Uranus and opposition aspect with Neptune present in the third house. As a result, the market may go lower on these days.

Transits during this week:  Jupiter is advancing in the sign Gemini, while Uranus continues to transit through Taurus this week, although it has turned retrograde now. Rahu is transiting in Aries and Ketu in Libra. The Sun advances in Libra, whereas Venus has now moved into Scorpio. Mercury has turned direct and has come back in Virgo. Saturn and Neptune are well established in Pisces. However, both have turned retrograde now. Retrograde Saturn is not a welcome feature. Mars remains in Cancer, the sign of its fall. It is now also making a square aspect with Rahu and Ketu.

Venus in Scorpio will establish a trine relationship with Saturn and Mars next week, which can benefit the bulls. This week, the market may spend time digesting the gains of the last two weeks.

 Combining the transit and CVD techniques, I have estimated the stock market’s daily behavior to be the following. 

Monday: Flat; Tuesday: Slightly higher;   Wednesday: Flat;   Thursday: Slightly higher;   Friday: Flat. 

Overall, the S&P500 may go Slightly higher this week.

A few weeks ago, I changed the format of this page. Instead of giving daily predictions, I am now writing about the shorter periods of the week. The basis is the compressed-vimshottri-dasha (CVD) planet in the monthly Solar return chart (mSRC).

My prediction last week was correct as SP500 gained nearly 100 points, as I was expecting a higher market. 

Here is the expected breakdown of the week of  August 31, 2020 – September 04, 2020.

The CVD planet for the period August 30 – September 03 is Rahu. Rahu is placed in the 6th house with no aspect from any benefic or malefic planet. This is not a good configuration and could result in a lower market.  

The CVD planet for the period September 04 -September 08 is Jupiter. Jupiter rules the 12th house and is situated in the 1st house in the sign Capricorn. Jupiter gets the influence of  Venus in the 7th house. This setup is good for the market and can result in higher values for the indexes.

Overall this week the S&P 500 may go LOWER, because the market may be down 4 days and up only 1 day.

The week after that may start with a higher day on September 08, 2020.

Note: This forecast is strictly based on astrological considerations. This is only for academic interest and not intended for trading.
